    You can find a lot of puppy collars at thrift shops for pretty cheap - would never pay full price for one. I'm getting mine at 14 weeks and was told that 8-12 inches was what was being used - then at 4- 6 months graduate to 10-14 inch collar.

    I had nose surgery a few months ago and when I got home I was worried the dogs would be so excited and jump all on me, but it was crazy how mild mannered and dare I say tame/domesticated they were. I swear they knew I was hurt and gave me a day or so of good behavior. They are truly great dogs to own!

    @Quercus: I am pretty sure the spinning was an initiation rite ;) I have never heard of that before…but I can just imagine you saying 'well, ooookay' :) Hang in there, it is always hardest with your first show dog...try to have fun! That's exactly what I said but it was right after I said "Seriously, you want me to do what?" :D The judge was a long-time basenji breeder so I figured she knew what she was talking about. @Quercus: I guess the moral of this story is that you will meet some jerky judges while you do this, and you may feel embarrassment and shame in their rings…but you will live through it, and be able to laugh later. The behavior of people who wish to shame you says more about them, than it does about you :) my inspirational message of the day. Thanks, I like that inspirational message. It's a good mantra for when I get a jerky judge. :)

    I think I saw Sophie on a b video website and I was so glad that someone else's B made that noise I showed it to my husband and daughter. Thanks for posting that video because as a new B owner we thought we had some kind of devel dog!!! She does it the most to our oldest dog Josie. There are nights she even does it from under our covers in bed when she hears Josie moving out in the living room. Too Funny!!!!
