Basenji/Chi Mix?

So I rescued this little (4 lb) Chi mix, and the more I read about Basenji's the more I think she's mixed with one. She's super sweet, smart, very energetic, very athletic, has a great nose, finds lots of things on our daily walks, hops when she runs, has a wrinkled brow and almond shaped eyes and she rarely barks. Think Basenji's can be so small though?

I don’t think you are, dang it and I want ALL the dogs to be Basenji! Still… great looking pup. Get a DNA test. If that pup has ANY Basenji in it, I’ll send you a beer. 👊😁👍

@sanjibasenji I guess because I come from a farming community which also hunts, I have known the term since forever and yes, my Chezz and her daughter Trouble worked in tandem, nose to the ground, in patterns, mostly kind of oblongs. They taught themselves to quarter the ground when hunting and I recognised it as soon as it happened - many times over their long lives.

That is a very interesting article and much of it pertains to training any dog, not just a hunter.

Dogs are like kids, if they think they can hold out for something "better" they will. 😉

I just KNEW he wasn't a thoroughbred after that. Maybe some DNA alterations? Part fish?

@eeeefarm said in Sanji 4 months Recall:

not giving the treat he knows you have because he did not respond to your command. Another example, removing his freedom (putting him in a crate) when his behaviour is unacceptable.

This was illuminating. Thanks!

As I understand it, they are flipsides of each other. Giving the treat positively reinforces the desired behavior, not giving it negatively reinforces the non-responsive behavior.
