Let's also consider that when you chase your dog, the dog thinks it's a game and will run away from you. Like... "you can't catch me!" Man, Basenji's can bolt! On the other hand, when you are the one running away, the dog instinctively joins you because you are part of the dog's family/pack. This is not to be confused with a learned command to chase an assailant, in Police work, for example. That would be a totally different game of chase.

I see your new and assume your from Or.
Welcome. Did you get your b from someone we might know? -
Don't know where you are in Oregon but the Evergreen Basenji is putting on ASFA lure coursing at Roy Polo Field in Olympia WA not far from Portland and I understand the field is worth the drive May 14-15 I believe, check out Evergreen Basenji Club website for more info.
Welcome by the way, you have the right color, would love to know like Sharron where you got your basenji. Also love to know your name and dogs name too.

Near the Roy polo field in WA …. If I have to drive 240 miles, I might as well stay the weekend.

I know there is a dog show this coming weekend toward Olympia with something basenji in the afternoon on sat. But I am not showing and so I am not up on it.
Therese, are you attending?
808Broo, you might get more help if you were more forth coming about yourself and your basenji. It helps, if you want to have friends to share…just fyi. -
