New Dog Park

Basenji Talk
  • MrBaRooampBittyM

    North Kansas City, Missouri has just opened a brand new dog park. For anyone interested it is located on the 32 nd St city limit between NKC and KC. Bounded east and west by N Oak Trafficway on the west, and Cherry St on the east. We havent had our pack there to play yet, the 3 of them love to play in their own l;ittle pack but dont play well with others as they tend to get a little rough and non B people dont understand that is just B's at play.

    It's been my experience that sometimes my basenji just gets it in her head that she doesn't like another dog, and for seemingly no good reason. I have been able to mitigate her behavior, but this is not a cure…. First, an excited basenji is a biting basenji. Make sure he's calm. Make him sit. Exert your dominance. Stand over your dog, look him in the eye. You need to snap him out of his mindset and remind him that you're in charge and he doesn't need to be aggressive. It will take time and patience, but he can be made more comfortable... I've also found that walking together as a "pack" helps. The two humans in the middle, the dogs held on a very short leash to either side, and you ignore your dog's aggression, focusing them on the walk itself. After a short while, they should just about forget one another. But this also acclimates them to each other. Good luck!

    They just opened a new park built on a retired landfill that has not one but TWO areas for dog parks, so when one gets run down, they'll open the other and close the first to allow grass to regrow, etc. She-Ra loves it, too, because unlike the other parks this one is wide open and has TONS of running room. Dream come true for us, but it'll still get hot in the summertime, I'm sure.

    Too bad for the dog though. Hopefully all will settle down further as time goes on.

    Basenjis often do best in the big dog section, (they are big dogs in small bodies) as long as the big dogs are nice. Glad you had such a good time, it is a joy to watch them run, and best of all…..a tired basenji is a GOOD basenji. One park we go to has a rule, no children under 8! Anne
