Basenji Training
  • <<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

    @snorky998: Congratulations!! Has Tillo been showing lately? How long before Lycia goes home? I'm sure Tillo's going to miss her. Thanks you all for the congrats :) Tillo hasn't been shown lately, he just turned 27 months so he can now win his last CAC for his Dutch Championship.. His first big show is at the end of June :) Lycia will leave the second or third week of April. Tillo will probably miss her very much and hate me for it :(
