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

Hello Everyone,
My name is Kat a and I was excited to be browsing the internet last week and find this site, it looks like a great place to meet other people that share mine and my fiances enthusiasm for Basenji's!
Our Basenji is a little girl named Eshe (pronounced Ee-sha) (it's Swahili and it means "life") She is 4 months old and our first Basenji.
It's been so entertaining reading the stories on this site and looking at the beautiful photo's. It's also been reassuring that Eesha is a completely normal Basenji!!!
I hope to become a welcomed member of this site and will be posting some pics of our little girl soon.Hopefully talk to some of you soon,
Kat, Gavin and Eesha xx
I have started to spell her name as it's said otherwise people call her Esh!! -
