My B loves to go for walks

    so much that if we are not walking her as much as she thinks we should she will whine, wag her curled up tail, baroo, trot from my husband to either the back door or the fence gate (depending on if my husband is outside or inside) and if none of these work fast enough for her, she starts to jump up on my husband over and over. She is funny to watch…of course she DOES get her way even if we are too tired :rolleyes: then it is a shorter walk. I realize that Bs enjoying walking and they do need the exercise but sometimes it is hard to get up the energy to take her. Jojo is 11 yrs so it is not like she has to be kept under the rule of thumb that "a tired Basenji is a good Basenji". Of course while on the walk she just HAS to smell EVERYTHING sticking above the ground:eek: ...street sings, mail boxes. bushes, trees, fire hydrants, etc...What a wonderful breed!!!:)

    Wizard, thats pretty much what I was hoping to hear. In regards to training, I meant along the lines of enforcing good behavior, like sitting down to have his leash taken off or waiting for a release to eat, not digging at the furniture. Stuff like that. I don't expect my roommate to "obedience train" my pup. Overall I have a lot of trust in him, we have lived together for 3 years and been friends for the past 7 years. Even if he doesn't have a vested interest in the dog, he has a pretty vested interest in our friendship. Khani, I think Jean is in South Africa right now, and I would prefer to have him stay home if possible. It looks like everything will work out. Also, Both Jean and Kyle spoke Highly of you and your dogs. Thanks again for the advice everyone

    I dont know in terms of distance but mine usually go at least an hour and have gone 2 or more if its cool. I think they would walk all day if I had the time because they never want to go back home though once we get home they will plop down and go to sleep like they are exhausted. Gee mom is just so mean for dragging them all over the neighborhood and keeping them away from their sleep. As was mentioned chief being tri (9 months) feels the heat more than my r/w zoe but now that the days are cooler he keeps up with her fine.

    Abbey was almost banned from my son's house after she killed the cat's feather on a stick thingy. We don't have our own cat although she'd like to have one of her own. She loves cats!
