I hope so too! Ive also started some training sessions together. Like having them both Sit (they will sit next to each other with no issues). I use a Clicker. Ill have them SIT and they both sit…ill click and they both get treats (a SMALL piece of hot dog). Kind of to teach them that being near each other can be rewarding. So far its worked. They can be inside the house toether with no conflict either. One will be on the couch near me the other in the recliner. The only tension is if one comes over to sniff the other. But neither snap anymore cuz when one growls the other heeds the warning and backs away. I love having another B around...they are like Potato chips...you cant have just one lol
Planing on a new member to the pack

Hi!! I have a question and hope anyone can shed some experience.
My B is 16 months old. I rollerblade 8k every day with him. Frida my 12 year old dash doesn't want to come any more . The Vet says she's fine, and has more years to come, it's just that a young basenji (or any B for that matter) is hard to keep up with. She's just a happy cuddling old dash now, so we are looking for a new partner in crime . I've heard whippets are a good mix. I contacted a Whippet rescue and they have two 10 month old males. I'm kind of scared to introduce a young male to my B. Any experience in this matter? Poncho is very sociable and plays nice with others. Both Poncho and Frida are neutered and spayed. (Pardon my spelling & grammar I'm not American) -
@Muro-Pads Rule of thumb, best to do opposites... not always a hard/fast rule, but 90% of the time. As they say "it works till it doesn't"
