Tyson - New Edition to our Family

Show Off Your Dog
  • jmcduffJ

    We had an opportunity this week to add to our family. Tyson had to be placed in a home ASAP. Everything worked out and we got him on Monday. Tyson(male) is the brindle, Chevy (female-Tri), Chase (male-red/white). Things are going okay but Chevy being the female is been quite a little bitch to him but each day is getting a little better.

    Tyson compliments Chevy & Chase beautifully. Congrats on your enlarging family. Now all you need is a black & white. Maybe next year?? Curious, did the other basenji get adopted?

    Yes… to a breeder in New Jersey who is going to show him (Rocky).

    Rocky did get adopted as well. Kelli placed him with a friend of another breeder she knows in New Jersey! So I might see him as races if I can get Lenny to do some lure coursing! Why, were you interested, Jill? wink wink ;)

    Congrats on adding Tyson to your B-family! He spent a weekend at my place with Rocky when Kelli had taken Lenny racing, and they were a lot of fun! Lots of energy!

    You really should verify that the parents have been DNA tested for at least Fanconi. Just saying "I have not had problems with Fanconi" is (in my opinion) not good enough, especially since we have a DNA test. Buyers should always ask to see the paperwork for test and also to seach on line at www.offa.org with the dog/bitches registration number and/or registererd name. I always encourage new people to the breed to please do the research.

    @weeziesmom: I have tried chew bones to curb his chewing however he tries to take weezies and they fight over them You can teach him to leave hers alone. Make them both sit for their chew; give hers first and make him stay with you when she dashes off to chew. {helps him see that she gets one/he gets one, and also gives her a head start!} Make sure he knows you have one for him also. He must sit and make eye contact with you before he is given his treat. Once they both have a chew, make them stay in different spots. Stand between them, moving your body silently to block his attempts to get to her. If necessary, tell him "no" or "leave it". It shouldn't take long for him to learn that he gets his and she gets hers. Eventually, he will just look when you hand her the treat and will sit and stare at your face until he gets his own, then he'll run to his own spot to chew his bone.
