Wow, I am surprised to see so many posts regarding the aggression thing. I have a 3 yr. old who thinks she is the queen of the universe, and is totally the alpha with her b-mix sister, but she plays well with others at dog parks and elsewhere, with the exception that there are certain B's she will get snarky with. We've never been able to figure out what it is she doesn't like in some of her own kind. It doesn't happen every time but it makes the other owners nervous when it does happen, so I have stopped going to the dog park where the B's she has trouble with go. There are very rare situations with other type dogs. The only time she will start to "hair up" in a park is when she is tired from running and resting behind my legs at a picnic bench. If a dog comes up to get to her by going around my legs then, she will growl and threaten; I believe this is "go away I'm resting and get away from my person" because she doesn't come out fighting but sounds very serious about the whole thing. Also, if another dog tries to "mate," she will quickly sit down, turn around and snarl her displeasure, but won't push it any further. I do think basenjis may not have much patience with dogs they consider their inferiors.
Aggresiveness toward other animals at meal time?

Pedro, thank you for wanting to be the very best basenji dad you can be.
Re your vet, just call and ask the girl at the desk. They have folks call all the time to
find gentle training for their dogs. Let us know how it goes.
Also, when your b is doing something you don't like, get a water bottle and squirt him.
It wont' hurt him and it will let him know your not happy. -
Re BRAT, often there are dogs that are not posted on the site in your area, you need to fill out an on line ap and go from there.
Re having 2 basenji babies, I think that is not the way to go. Basenjis watch trained dogs in the house to learn the house rules, so if you want a good basenji, you work with your boy to become one, then add a second dog, who will watch your boy to learn.
B's learn by watching the dog in the house. -
