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
Hi to all
-
We are new to the forum,but not basenji's. My husband has had basenji's for 35 years. When we married 8 years ago he came with a senior basenji and I a elkhound. Sadly old age claimed Oreo's life at 15. We now have two basenji's a 3 year old red and a 2 year old tri. I have gained alot of knowledge over the years and really love this breed. Its not hard to do that. My elkhound has been with basenji's so long he now acts like them. Not many elkie traits left.
He even sleeps with his leg in the air every now and then. We are lucky as they all get along. Just wanted to say hi to all -
Hi there! I'm sure you'll have fun here-my boxenji sleeps the same way!

My mixed breed Missy is getting that way but I don't know what kind of dog she is but if you saw her tail you would say Basenji. That is just tooooooo funnnnnnnnnny
