Whoooops! Sorry Andrea….. I meant to say "Then I give him the treats".....LOL
But I guess you got the idea.

Thank you Andrea. When it's time for Bandit to go to bed, I go into the kitchen to grab a couple of treats. He's hot on my heels by the time I reach the kitchen….... lovely!! he's off the couch!!!
I say to Bandit "now it's bed time, outside into bed" and he heads for the door and once outside I firmly say sit Bandit which he does. I then give me the treats saying good boy and close the door. He's such a smart cookie....... and this way I don't have a confrontation with him.....excellent!
Cheers

My Basenji scares me and he's only 7mths old…... he's allowed up on the couch with us until it's time for bed...... when either my husband or I wake him and try to move him down off the couch saying it's bed time..... he looks up and growls then just goes off his head trying to snap at us...... we are new to Basenjis...... is this normal behaviour????

Jessi…. glad to hear Tucker is home where he should be...... love and hugs to him from Bandit

Love that name Ness and the Untouchables!!!

LOL….Cleaning up the mess and toys around the lounge room last night after Bandit and Alfie had gone to bed.... I thought ran through my mind... I'm still picking up after kids.... but this time it's my darling kids with 4 legs....LOL

I too, give Bandit cardboard tubes, empty tissue boxes which he spreads all over the place.
The other night my daughter gave Bandit and Alfie a Happy Birthday balloon she had finished with. It still floated up to the ceiling when let go... so we had some fun with Bandit and Alfie.... you should have seen them trying to catch the balloon..... gosh it was funny!!! When they got hold of the balloon, they ran along the floor and each time the balloon would try and float away!!!

Welcome Jackboy
My husband and I have a red and white Basenji boy 4 1/2 mths called Bandit and a 2yr Lowchen boy called Alfie.
We are revisiting obedience for Alfie for first time training for Bandit.
We are walking 2 a day with haltis now and what a difference it has made to our walks. Instead of having our arms pulled off, the boys have progressed to walking beside us…. Hooray... and oh so enjoyable.

Welcome Luzambo
I'm new to this breed as well with 4 1/2 mth old boy Bandit.
