Michelle, potty training when you aren't home all day is hard for anyone. Options include restrict to a safe room with a large pan with potty papers so the pup doesn't have to go in crate or places you do not have made easy to clean. Since they can only go about an hour per month without wanting to go, it's pretty hard up to about 5 mos if no one is home.
Is your Basenji a lefty or a righty?

This is very interesting.

That is very interesting. I will have to try that out because my male is very dominant and my female has separation anxiety when she is left alone. I am curious to see if that has any bearing on their personalities!

Soo cool!!!!!!

Ultra interesting - thanks Joanne! I'll test Kipawa, but I suspect I will find he is both right and left. Oh, and once he gets up from sleeping right now, I will check his whorl too.

I think it would be a very useful test when choosing a pup for eventual performance dog competition; might be a good test for choosing show dogs too in that it would weed out the pups that wouldn't cut it on the campaign trail.
