Congratulations on your new family member! Love her name!!! Don't be surprised that if it is raining, all her careful training goes away. MANY Basenjis HATE to get wet. A raincoat can help...at least it does with my rain averse Binti!

I would suggest you be careful with rawhide. I quit using rawhide chews and bones when one of mine got a piece lodged in her digestive system, causing a partial blockage. We were lucky to get it shifted without surgery. The other potential issue is that dogs can get quite possessive about those when they have become softened up a bit. My girls would go to war over them and even growl at me if I removed one when it was getting sufficiently icky and small that I was concerned about her potentially swallowing the remains whole. I didn't like the possessiveness and resource guarding that seemed to result.
