    I am not in your area, but ... you should know that dog training is about teaching you how to interact with your dog, as opposed to teaching your dog how to do things. Most area Kennel Clubs offer training where you are your dogs partner in the class. The things you will learn will last your lifetime. I applaud the non-punitive approach. A lot of people fly off the handle when their dog chews on the wrong thing, or doesn't quite have potty training down. One of the best things you can do is give them love when they do it right and don't react when they don't. Recognize that he's just a pup. You can trade an acceptable chew toy for your shoes, and you can avoid the problem by closing the closet door so your pup can't get to your shoes. Accidents will happen and learning to potty doesn't happen overnight. Just provide a lot of verbal love when the pup gets it right and don't react when he doesn't. Love and praise are the best tools in your training bag. Congrats on your pup. Can't wait to hear about all of your adventures!

    Nice looking dog! I'm tempted to get another too once Safi is a bit older.

    @sharronhurlbut: Its wonderful to add a breeder dog with a rescue dog, or dogs.. It is great to see how a dog can help the one who has issues… Course, there are some rescue dogs who can help all other dogs, so please, if you have space, open your home to a basenji in need. Ha! I failed fostering 101 and adopted my first two fosters!! I have three B's, and 3 labs pups right now! My house is a zoo! Yes the breeder B did help the other B's learn how to be "proper" , and hes great with the labs too, really knows how to teach manners, and is great with all animals, except other hard headed dominant dogs :) I wish I could foster more, but Im already over my legal limit allowed by my city…shhh dont tell anyone!!! Love, Melisssa
