@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".....
Puppy Nosework, Week 2
-
L'Ox is continuing with his Nosework. This week the boxes are scattered in the kitchen. He is still self rewarding, cheese is just placed in the food box.

I love this. He is definitely enthusiastic.

L'Ox looks to be really enjoying his training.
Now I have a reason to save my shoeboxes.

Yes, L'Ox loves nosework. I love that it is so easy to work them and I get tired, satisfied dogs even after just a few searches.
I am taking L'Ox's mom, Rio, to a nosework seminar on Sunday. It should be fun.
