First time Basenji Training

Basenji Training
  • Kingsley1230K

    Hello all,
    I am new to this forum and new to basenjis. Just wondering if there was a book or a website that would help me train my pup. I get her on Saturday, I adoped her from an Arkansas Human Society, she is a Basenji/Shepherd mix her name is Lilu.

    Just wanted to freshen up on training and see if there is anything really different that i would need to learn on training basenjis.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    We will love them no matter what ![](images/smilies/wink.png "Wink") http://www.youtube.com/user/Kingsley1230 Lilu's page

    I saw a thread in Books (I think) called Basenji Owner's Manual that some of the members are saying is pretty good. Keep in mind that Lilu is part Shepherd too. She may end up with some behavioral traits of that breed as well.

    Surf the puppy sections too…lots of great information there.:)

    Yes, my girl was well socialized. It's not that my voice is so startling to her. It's more that she doesn't like to be scolded and will find a way in the not too distant future to repay me with her opinion. Since I learned a while ago to not do this, I haven't suffered her wrath in some time but when I did it could be anything from finding she had peed or pooped just out of my sight to finding something I value that had just been totally shredded. I found that I could scold her reasonably for what she had done but then I needed to immediately reinforce my love for her so that she knew she didn't need to rebel against me. This has worked well for me. Shouting at her would always reap me a grim reward in the end.

    Thanks all for his well wishes, he might need them. So far he is eager, if treats are available, to learn new things, so I am very hopeful.

    Glad to hear she did well. She must have heard what you said and wanted to prove you wrong. They are such stinkers!
