    Caesar is such a great Basenji! He shows the ropes to young Cairo, keeps him in line, lets him chew play with him, and settles him down when mom is tired. Caesar never growl talked before Cairo, my female Beta did.

    Now Caesar growl talks while playing and controlling the little man. Just like the female basenji growl talking, it takes some getting used too. It concerned me at first, but he is so super gentle with Cairo. They are two peas in a pod!!

    Caesar and Cairo….the boys

    This a very interesting article, Andrea. I'm not a professionla trainer and only have little experience in the field of professional dog trainers here. Those I do know mainly use positive reinforcement but I also know some old school trainers who while professing to now use positive reinforcement do rather confuse the two. I love and totally agree with his statement that 'training is not something we do to our dogs: its something we do with them'. This I think sums up completely the way we need to train our Basenjis for the best results. Toughand Prissy, thank you for posting that excellent video link.

    Have you tried to contact anyone in the Tucson Kennel Club? http://www.azdogs.com/tkc/ They don't have much of a website, but do have email addys for the President and Secretary. There are likely other kennel clubs in the area also

    These front-attaching harnesses work really well in my experience. As soon as the dog starts to pull, it will turn itself towards you, slowing it down. Otherwise the dog has every bit of freedom to do what it wants.
