Neutered dogs and lure or racing competition

Basenji Training
  • Are you allowed to compete (not just train) in racing or lure course with a neutered dog or spayed bitch ?
    In France you are not suppose to, but what about the USA, Finland, Australia, Sweden, Norway, Danemark…...?

  • Yes, absolutely in the US. It is soo much easier..the boys are less likely to follow the girls, and since the girls can't run with they are in season, you can race any time of year.

  • Yeh, they can be neutered and allowed to course in the UK too. We also have the same rule about no btiches in season (which is perfectly sensible)

  • lucky you!

    Take it REALLY REALLY slowly. Be sure to make good things happen when they are together and getting along. It took me 7 months to get my 4 yr old basenji rescue (who has a very high prey drive) to coexist with an old cat. If there is a bad experience, it can set everything back months, so be very careful to set up good experiences and avoid bad experiences.

    @Basenjimamma: Otis' favorite household machinery is by far the dishwasher…joy to the world, when it is open and the dishes are still dirty...yumm-o!! Dishwasher a favorite for every B I've ever had. One time I had a guest here and he had taken a shower earlier using a towel he brought. Ringo pulled his damp towel off the rack, hauled it in the living room and right in front of the guy proceeded to roll around on it until it was a twisted mess. I was embarrassed to say the least. He didn't care. :D
