Winter break is over!

Basenji Training
  • Tonight we had our first agility training after a looong winter break. After three months of doing only obedience, I thought Tillo would have forgotten how it works…. I couldn't have been more wrong.. I have got such a great dog!! :D:D From minute one he was concentrated. The trainer was also very excited, after every run he was shouting "You go girl! You've got such an awesome dog!!" So I have been walking around with a big smile on my face this entire evening.. I just had to share it! :D:D:D ;)

    We are now curled up on the couch together. I just love my boy :D

    @eeeefarm - Totally agree with both of you, while I don't do the "restrain the pup", but if it works great and in a pinch it does work for me if really needed. When we have pups (babies) and Mom is tired of them and puts herself in a position that they can't reach her, they turn to the next adult in the house.... same thing will happen if they get over excited and yes, I have seen Basenji Moms, pin the pup to the ground and/or other adults in the home.... so it is something that a pup understands. Walking away works for me... or I try to change up the "game" by turning to working their minds and getting them to think about other things. In the Basenji Breed this is another way of teaching them that the prior behavior is not acceptable. They learn pretty quickly. Thanks for posting this thread eeeefarm... well needed...

    @zande - I have place pups at 9wks, but typically to prior Basenji owners, they know the "ropes"... also I do eyes at 9wks, so 10 works better for me in placing pups and yes...(LOL) mine are raised in the home, no kennel.... and the breeders that I know that use kennel runs, still have their pups in the house for house time and "education".....
