Hi John! My Binti will only consent to have her nails ground and only with treats (she gets one per paw.) She hated it at first but once we had the routine established, she settles right into it. The only thing I would say about using the grinder is keep pausing to feel the claw. I once had a "groomer" who was in a hurry hold the grinder to Binti's claw too long and the friction built up heat which burned her enough to make her yip. We started doing it at home after that.0_1609705288646_1Binti orchids1.jpg

i'm not sure the couch saw him coming and quickly surrendered its stuffing…fast forward to today.. the funiture has been replaced sure it has come corners roughed up from Jasper all 3 get along.. and life is good. There is no tiptoeing through life when you own a basenji or 3 for that matter. I live in Northern calif and even though my dogs are not rescues i get together with the BRAT dogs for a monthly get together and let the hounds loose...
Oh well, you probably needed a new sofa anyway. I also have 3 badsenjis. Digital the brindlewonderkid is now 13, Jet the tri-ing is 12, and Zest the superstar in training is 3 (she's a r/w, the others you should be able to figure out). We also have Pearl-petual Motion, the malinois (malinut).
Welcome to our forum - it's a nice place.

Welcome! We have 3 too, and they get along great, all are couch 'taters too at 14, 12 and 10. Looking forward to photos of yours. Glad your boy is doing well on the protocol!

Hey 3basenjis! Welcome to the Forum and I am in the Sacramento area as well with 2 b's - one of them is on the Fanconi Protocol too! If you're interested could meet up and have a playdate sometime! Other Sacramentoers (Sacramentoees?) are welcome also!

Other Sacramentans. I live in Woodland, so not too far from Sacramento.
I am active in racing and coursing my dogs and if you are interested in getting started let me know and I can let you know what events I will be attending.
-
Sacramentans. There you go.
Hey Ivoss - I work in Woodland!
-
Cool! Where in Sacramento do you live? Natomas?
-
Yep, Natomas!
-
We usually go to movie theaters there in Natomas. It is a nice community. And it is not that bad a drive to many of the racing and coursing events that happen in this area if you ever want to come out. Though after this weekend it will be fall before they are around here since the temps normally start to really go up fast this time of year.

The next lure coursing event in the Sacramento area is in Dixon on June 19 and 20. I am attending a wedding in Southern California that weekend so I won't be there but they are usually people there willing to help a beginner get started.
