    My first B started challenging at 16 months, we neutered him shortly after and it did seem to help a little. However it was only a small part of the solution not the whole solution. The closest thing to a magic solution is the excercise and mental stimulation. Basenjis are one of the most intelligent dogs and need more excercise and stimulation than most. I have generally found males to be much easier to work with and less aggressive than females. Correct discipline, structure, positive reinforcement, patience / stubbornness and enough excercise are the keys. Usually when people have problems with their dogs it is the humans which are the cause, not the dogs.

    @KMac: I contacted Arlene (above). She was wonderful!! And I look forward to getting in contact with her when the time is right! She was VERY knowledgeable about her dogs and gave me sooo much amazing advice and is willing to help out with making sure basenji's are right for us. So I agree - Ontario has wonderful breeders! Thank you! It was also very nice talking to you also.

    Does your Basenji have its own specific place in your home?

    Jack sits like that on the stairs too! Jack has a couple of places that he has claimed. Top of the couch, center cushion of the couch, under the dining room table, on DHs pillow (when he isn't around). Every once in a while he tries to test me by sitting in my spot on the couch, and he gets a little growly and snarky, so I poke him a little bit until he decides to move on his own :-)

    Yes, you have really worked hard to do right by Medjai. He is lucky to have an owner willing to work so hard to stay up to date and in touch with the basenji community to provide the best for him.

    @jys1011: Hi everyone! We just got two wonderful basenjis from El Dorado Basenji breeders in Mass. Our lil boy is C3PO is 3 yrs old & our lil girl is Topaz is 2 yrs old. They're too adorable for words. I've only had them about 3 weeks but already I adore them dearly. We're trying to adjust them to their new home since they are adults but we hope that we will soon be able to go on play dates & such fun basenji outings:D JYS, What are your Basenjis registered names?
