  • <<thanks.. i="" have="" no="" doubts="" about="" us="" having="" fun..="" do="" wonder="" how="" the="" other="" owners="" will="" react="" when="" tillo="" acts="" like..="" a="" basenji..="">>

    The people will probably stand around the ring, laugh, whisper, snicker. At least that's what I get! But I have fun, so what the heck!

    One lady came up to me after I was in the ring with a very stubborn (typical B move-I don't want to do it attitude) Shadow, and asked me what happened to my lovely little dog. I told her - He's a BASENJI!</thanks..>

  • Tonight we had our first agility training!! It was soooooo much fun!!! Tillo loved it!! He's such a quick learner! Can't wait till next week! :D :D :D

    Tillo must be very motivated by treats. I could never get my B to do this as he's not motivated by treats. He'd take one look at the agility equipment and say "OK, this looks stupid". :rolleyes:

    I'm glad Tillo likes it. It's nice to see a Basenji with an interest in agility training. :D

    No, it's not about the treats. He likes it, I think, because of the adrenaline, the speed and the 'weird' obstacles. He just thinks it's very exciting! :D

  • Sounds like so much fun…do I need to remind about pictures..?

  • Does sound like fun wish we had something like that close to us. Were we could at least try. Have fun going again.

    It's alreay quite dark around the time we have training.. and Job has to make sure Lycia isn't crying.. But maybe next week.. Maybe a video.. we'll see.. :)

  • Just a little update/brag.. Tonight we had agility training and Tillo did it all.. off leash!! The weeks before he just kept running away as soon as the leash came off.. but now he was nearly perfect :D He's such a smart boy! :D

    Still no pics though… :o ;)

  • Now thats impressive, well done Tillo and Janneke

  • Good to hear..I wish there were pictures..and I wish I could take Otis of the leash..

    Hire yourself a behaviorist immediately…. should have done this when you first knew about the new addition to the family.

    Thanks Pat… I laid in wait for that shot...he always jumps there when he's chasing Chey. Lisa...Kudos to both your pups...but especially Nikki! I really want to try coursing with both Chey and Apache...but I have some things to work on with both dogs first.
