Your basenji's tricks

Basenji Talk
  • @SenjiShowgirl:

    • go, zumi go! - and that starts a B-500!!

    Cricket's cue for starting the B-500 is "no, no, bad Cricket! GIVE THAT BACK!!!" :rolleyes:

  • Dolly's cue is somewhat like your Cricket's - but we don't have to say anything, all she has to do is see Bob with the Dremel! We then spend the next 10 minutes chasing her around the yard until she finally boxes herself into a corner.
    The only reliable trick any of ours have now is "Shake" before they can get out of the bathtub - and yes, they do shake when given the request! (Notice, I did say request, as it's pretty useless to command a Basenji)

    Ladybasenji, where are you in Quebec? Montreal? We have a place in Gatineau (Aylmer sector) and one of my dogs might even be related to yours. You're experiences with your girl remind me so much of my first basenji, about 20 years ago–it gets easier, I swear! Let me know if you'd like help with Lady--they're nothing like labs and will never be "obedient" but there are tricks for training them : D

    Jess - why don't you put a proposal to each of the individual clubs that they take a Discover Dogs stand. There are new people in the breed now who may be more interested. Also I do know that some of the breeds at DD this year had asked for double stands precisely to give space so that dogs could be rested without being crowded in. It wasn't a case of tired dogs biting but as you know Basenjis object to having strangers pushing into their faces. There are plenty of other breeds who would also object to this. After all I'm sure that nobody would put a dog of bad temperament on the stand. That wouldn't do the breed any good!! I remember one Crufts when one of the basenjis went for the judge and headlines were 'Biting Basenji'!! You can imagine the uproar and the disservice it did to the breed! I'm not sure who would ascertain that the information would be accurate though. I do know that some of the info on the club websites is incorrect!!!
