Amazing animals!!!!

    Have I said lately that I love, love this breed of dogs, Basenjis:D :D are the smartest dogs I have ever seen. Tonight my hubby and I were playing with Sahara on our bed, and she started to chew on my hand alittle for me to give her attention and my hubby said, "Sahara don't bite Mommie, give her love, and she looked at me with her head cocked and pawed at my arm and started licking me, it was just amazing. She was listening to my hubby so intently and just got real close to me and started giving me love. We could not believe it, I have always noticed how Sahara listens to me so intent, like she knows exactly what I am saying. Of course she has times she doesn't listen, like when I want her to do something she doesn't want to do, haha!!!! The majority of the times she does listen and does what I want. I LOVE this furbaby, hubby and I are Basenji hooked.

    Yep, we saw that one, too (the coffeehouse one). I'm guessing the animator or someone involved with the show has really good taste in dog breeds! :)

    @Candy: eeeefarm, Enjoyed your story, sounds like it worked. Are you still clicking? I get out the clicker when I want to teach a new behaviour…...the latest one was "waving" at me. I don't train on any schedule, as he knows everything I require of him on a daily basis, but once in awhile it is fun to grab the clicker and some treats and see what we can learn today. He starts offering behaviours as soon as he sees the clicker come out. "What do you want me to do, Mom?" :)

    Zest! loves doing this with the malinois! Always has. (although I would NOT use the word "gentle") Word of caution **With our first malinois, Z got her lower jaw caught on the mali's collar - twice. So now nobody has collars on in my house. ** I also know of a couple of different people who lost dogs due to strangulation this way. Very sad.

    That's actually what I thought about when I saw it and I thought it would be good practice for coursing, or at least if nothing else it should help with conditioning.
