Invisiable Fences - again…

Basenji Training
  • I think one of the reasons I've been successful with my fence in the last 4 years is that my dogs were trained when they were young. It's a possible reason. Duke has crossed the line a couple times: The first cause was because the battery had run out of juice, my error. The second time was because his collar had loosened up so that it was ineffective. In both instances, Duke was lured by other dogs on a walk with owners passing our house. These things have made me more mindful to check them every couple of months. I do worry about my dogs with the invisible fence, so much that to this day, they don't go out alone, never, not even in the cold frigid winter months. Thankfully, they quickly do their business and come running back into our warm home. However, I wish that we could erect a nice big privacy fence, but my neighborhood association does not allow them or a visible fence of any kind. :mad:

    Sarge uses his cell phone and calls me.....seriously, it depends on the door. One he can open himself by pulling down the handle the others he just scratches.

    @klangill I asked in the Facebook San Diego (CA) Basenji Meetup group about trainers. A member recommended Crewsn K9 Academy. https://www.crewsnk9academy.com/ I posted early in this thread about checking with the local breed club, South Coast Basenji Fanciers, for advice.

    OK. Age related or not. Daisy is being the MOST observant here. Daisy hears the beep - and WHAM! Back to her hooo-mans! The last 2 days - I have not observed her to come close to the lines. YAY - DAISY - WOO HOO!!! That is exactly the praise she gets. There are flags everywhere now. She sees them and "bam", she backs away! I do believe I have a very smart girl on my hands - different than Duke who is always testing, testing-testing!
