Tillo fighting during agility training

    Oh no, poor Tillo. What was your trainer thinking of if the SP had already been a problem.

    I hope Tillo recovers physically and mentally. Has he had an antibiotic jab? Dog bites can harbour nasty germs.

    To err is human to forgive is canine

    Janneke, I just saw this
    I am so sorry Tillo had to experience that "not so nice dog's teeth up close"…I am glad he is feeling better..yes, you can do it, go for the July 10th competition and tell us all about how great he did..:D:D

    I was away so didn't see this…

    Janneke, I'm so sorry that happened to Tillo. You do such a great job with him and it sounds like he is recovering from the wounds and fear nicely - thanks to you! Fingers crossed things continue to go well so you can try him at your upcoming agility!

    Well.. tonight we had a 30 min. training to practice the weave poles. Tillo did ok. He was more excited than normal when we got out of the car and he had a big ridge when we walked to the field, but we were there 30 min before we started, so he was all calmed down at the beginning of the training :)

    I asked the trainer what he is going to do with Tillo and the Shar pei and he isn't sure yet.. :confused: This wednesday he will have a look and discuss it with the other trainers. He said that there is always a possibility that Tillo will be in a group with a male he doesn't like… so he doesn't think it's necessary to change the group. I told him I will quit and look for another training if he doesn't change something.. We'll see.. we'll see...

    It depends. I've never had to crate another breed forever, but my one basenji would get destructive if left alone.. the 2nd one would pee on my bed. So crating it was. However, I'm home so they were rarely crated. My current basenji is fine loose as long as she's alone. So like they said, do it slow, confine to an area that is safe and see how it works out. But if you need to keep crating, most dogs sleep far more than people.. up to 17 hrs a day. Just exercise before and lots after so they aren't bored.

    Isis is darling! By all means do a 'well baby' visit with your vet, and order the DNA swab for fanconi, huge peace of mind. I had a wonderful Isis many years ago, I love the name!

    If you use a squirt bottle, you will only have to spray the b a few times before they get the message…at least, that works in my house.

    Yeah. I think I have done everything to Basenji proof the house, but he always seems to come up with something I never thought of. I guess that's how you learn. Luckily he wasn't hurt… well maybe just his ego.

    When Phoenix got into a fight a few mths back with his brother My vet prescribed the same thing and it made Phoenix sleepy it's the pain killers i believe that do it cuz when he was done with them he was back to his ole self again . i wouldnt worry too much maybe just the excitment from the vet the fight and the meds. He's not throwing up right ? But i would say it's the pain meds that are making him lethargic.. I hope he feels better soon !!!!

    Basenjis have desires, we have desires to get to work on time. You can feed your b twice a day and do a poop right after they eat. That will help. When it is raining or cold I just throw on my slicker and accept that I will be getting as wet as my B. You may want to try Muttlucks which are great waterproof shoes made for dogs in the water or snow.
