Hi John! My Binti will only consent to have her nails ground and only with treats (she gets one per paw.) She hated it at first but once we had the routine established, she settles right into it. The only thing I would say about using the grinder is keep pausing to feel the claw. I once had a "groomer" who was in a hurry hold the grinder to Binti's claw too long and the friction built up heat which burned her enough to make her yip. We started doing it at home after that.0_1609705288646_1Binti orchids1.jpg
Hi everyone!!

I live in the West Midlands are of Great Britain. I have a red/white Basenji bitch, Pollyanna, kennel name Phantom Red Kyte. She will be 9 this Christmas. She is our second Basenji. Our first, Holly sadly died when she was only four. Broke our hearts. We really love the breed, and their quirky little ways. We love our Polly to bits, and I think she loves us too! Her favourite things are: pigs ears (dried, not still on the pig, obviously), leaning up against the range cooker oven when it is on, (I think Basenjis must have asbestos skin), eating the lawn cuttings - why do they do that then? - and basically anything she has been told not to do. I hope I am going to enjoy the forum, I only discovered it today.!!
