    Hey, back in August the Animal Planet's Breed All About It: Basenji episode aired. We had the dvr set to record and wouldn't you know it our cable provider switched the programming and it didn't show. so we missed the episode. I contacted Animal Planet about purchasing the episode. Below is the response I got. As Basenji Owners, I suggest each of us email them using the webform at www.customercare.discovery.com requesting that it be made available for purchase.:)

    I did too – for some reason I've never seen this program offered on Animal Planet in my area (at least not during prime time) so have missed what sounds like a good show.

    Didn't someone start a thread about it, with all- or at least some of the episode on here? I am going to search for it…

    Went to the link that had been posted but is only 2:45 in length; the entire program with commercials is 60 minutes. probably without commericials it is 30-40 minutes in length and this is what I had requested from animal planet to purchase.

    I have the episode on VHS which I bought from Animal Planet. It was the only format that they offered it in.

    Actually, I think all the Breed All About its are 30 minute shows, so probably 22-24 minutes of content.

    We have done a search on any new DVR we have gotten and always keep it on there. One of our dogs goes crazy any time we put it on, it is hilarious.

    Ladybasenji, where are you in Quebec? Montreal? We have a place in Gatineau (Aylmer sector) and one of my dogs might even be related to yours. You're experiences with your girl remind me so much of my first basenji, about 20 years ago–it gets easier, I swear! Let me know if you'd like help with Lady--they're nothing like labs and will never be "obedient" but there are tricks for training them : D

    I don't have the flu but I am home from work today because I am going to get a shot in my foot to kill a nerve. I am nervous beyond words and Chase and Zahra have been cuddled up with me all morning which really has helped to keep me calm. I wonder if the podiatrist would mind them coming into the office with me for the shot? :D

    @spitfirekrl1: He doesn't seem to mind much he pretty much ignores it except when she pins him and he ends up on his back. Then he'll start snapping at her face which doesn't seem to steer her away from her objective (we have no idea what that is at this point). When she pins him she wants submission. She wants him to not struggle and nip and he should calm before she lets him go. Momma dogs do this to their puppies, it is part of puppy education. They do it most to the puppies that are the most pushy usually. In our last litter, Zeke always expected to get his way and he was the one who was pinned by both mom and Rio the most. He learned that by submitting he was allowed to go back to play. When he crossed the line, by playing too rough or invading the adults personal space he was pinned. He learned the limits to play and how to behave appropriately with adults from this. The other pups would get the same treatment but less because they didn't push those boundaries as much.

    I wash my dogs teeth every day. On beginning was hard…they do not like this-however I can this make. Care about teeth is very important-I use paste-STOMAGEL and Petosan.
