    Re: Pittsburgh??

    Hi,
    I'm new to the forum and looking for a possible basenji meet-up in the Pittsburgh area. I have a 4 year old neutered male (he's my fourth basenji) and he loves to run. Anybody nearby?

    Hi - yes I’m also in the Pittsburgh area - near Ben Avon - you? I have a 5 year old male who loves to run and a 6 year old girl who - not so much.

    Where would you think could be a good place to meet?

    Hi Kerry,

    I'm northeast of the city in Lower Burrell. I'm not familiar with your area, but are there any parks or enclosed spaces near you? I don't mind a drive.

    There is a dog park in Bellevue. Is that too far? It’s not usually very crowded. That’s why I like it.
    Maybe we can wait until the weather is a bit better and not so wet! My cell. 4122511212. You can message me

    I will check out the Facebook page. There is a nice dog park in Encinitas, but I'm not sure how far you are from the area.

    I lost my dear boy last July. He was 16 1/2. Nice to know there are some basenji owners around the Burgh.

    Find a good positive reinforcement puppy class, like clicker training and you will both have fun. All of mine have earned at least a rally novice obedience title and love the training. There are some things that you should not expect of a basenji such as being outside off lead. They are sighthounds and must be on a lead or in a fenced area at all times. The biggest issue with a house with children is that the children must understand the door can never be left open. My inlaws have a terrible habit of wanting to stand in the doorway and talk as people leave. I have to shoo them outside so the dogs do not try to dart outside given the opportunity. We have had ten basenjis since our son was two, he is now 27 and the basenjis raised him.

    Hey dogstar42, I'm not in that exact area but the Basenji Club of Southern Wisconsin(http://www.bcosw.org/) has several activities every year not far from you, one of which is a Fun Day where everyone can bring there dog for fun and games in Rockford, IL. It's on July 11 this year. You should consider joining the club. They haven't updated the calendar on the website yet but if you look in the latest newsletter it has a list of most of the dates for the year. There is also a Chicagoland Basenji Club but I am not as familiar with that one. Clay

    We will try to keep the 6th open. Depending on how things go next weekend we might shoot to go done on Sunday.
