@dana-k actually Dana, I do not believe the trainers say that eventually, they come to like their 'safe place'. Mine now will stay and eat in his crate, when the door is open. If i try to close it, i see the look of a prisoner, and he definitely wants to get away. I would have felt the same, btw. Currently, when i go out i 'crate' him in my salon. Until now, no real damage was done, at least not different from the damage he tries to do (like eat the plants) when i am with him.
Meet Kilo-Georgia K9's New Narcotics Detection Pup
-
I would like to formally introduce Kilo to the Basenji world. He was our pick of our working basenji litter. Kilo was thoroughly tested for working traits for scent detection. He is nine weeks old and begins his formal training now. This training will consist of environmental desensitization, puppy play groups, lots of play related to detection, and his first odor introduction. This is pic is of Kilo meeting Valco, a wonderful GSD owned and handled by our Kennel Master, Phoebe Bault.

Awwww, he's cute!!!!!!

What big jobs for such a little guy! I am sure this "chosen one" will rise to the challenge. Looking forward to updates.
-
Kilo is a great name for a drug-sniffer, hahaha! He is gorgeous.
-
What a beautiful little pup! I'm sure he will rise to the challenge he has before him. More and more we see reports of these agile little geniuses being chosen for this type work as they can fit between things and walk with delicacy through piles of luggage, etc.
-
That's wonderful! And he is just beautiful. Thats great that he will be able to work and use his mind like it should/could be used. Please keep us updated.

He is a beauty
Good luck to the littel guy…

He could not be any cuter! Can't wait to hear your updates!
