Obedience

Obedience

Obedience takes the skills you would like your basenji to know in his/her daily life (come, sit, down, stay, heel) and incorporates them into a test to see how well you work as a team. Today’s training methods make learning so much fun for you and your basenji.

Preparing for obedience requires significant training over an extended period of time.

Tracking

Tracking

If you and your basenji like being outdoors, add a new element to your world: tracking. Your dog can learn to follow a trail of human scent! This is a fun activity and you can also earn titles.

There is moderate preparation if you want to do tracking for fun, but if you want to compete and earn titles, more significant preparation and training involved.
