I do need to come up with something a bit more comfortable for him and was thinking as he gets his balance better maybe he can go in a buddy seat behind me. We will see but for now he is still okay up in front. As he is only 5 months he still can't walk along for very long but that will also come as he gets older.
In regards to desensitizing my horses. All I can say that it is many miles of riding, wet saddle blankets and making sure that every scary monster or obstacle that you come across is introduced and explored. Also, having their trust and being the leader makes a big difference as they are accepting of anything that you ask. Dakota is especially accepting and I call him my "Star Trek Horse" as he bodly goes where no horse has gone before. He accepts any kind of vehicle, heavy logging equipment, chain saws, blowers, musical bands, all animals, sirens, lights, helicopters, parachutists and even had a remote control plane flying over our heads once. He is quite special. My other horses are pretty much the same but like to stop, look and assess more often. My husband and I laugh because we purchased a quarter mare 9 years ago and had her shipped over from the US. She is a daughter of a 3 time world champion reining and cutting stallion. Guess what? She is scared to death of Swiss cows in the field with big bells. But, in the arena she'll work them fine for cutting and team penning work. Who would figure.
Jenga is quite cautious around the horses when on the ground which is good. It is funny how he can pick up on a "stink eye" and know where his place is.
Photographer in love with our clan
-
Last Friday, we met an dog-photographer whi fell in love with our clan..
He wanted to take pictures and we said yes!
The results are soo good!!
What did you say? are we pretty?? :rolleyes:
We're so happy with the pics, the pictures from them individually are hanging on the wall in one frame…
He made a lot of pictures but didn't want to give us more than the pics above, because these two breeds are very uncommon here.
He wanted to give this pics to books, encyclopedia's etc..
Again we said Yes!It's so nice when people fall in love when they look in the eyes of our B's and the ibizian...

What wonderful pictures and beautiful dogs!!!
-
Wow! Those are spectacular pictures. But of course, so are your dogs. It is hard to have a bad picture when the subjects are so beautiful! I love the contrast between the basenjis and the ibizan hound - their gangly friend. If I didn't seriously think that DH, Cory, and Jayden would all have a stroke, I'd love to also have an ibizan!!
-
What lovely pictures…..
And BasenjiDiva.... all of mine love Ibizans.... play with them all the time at lure trials.... in fact I find that my kids love all the other sighthounds, but that could be because they are around them all the time at trials from the time they are very young -
Oh, your brindle boy is sooo handsome!
-
What beautiful pics!!! I love the collars on your b's too!
-
So beautiful!!!! The Ibizan is my other favorite breed. Wonderful pictures!!!
