@Patty:
I totally agree with Jess about over washing - after all basenjis are perfectly good at keeping themselves reasonably clean and shouldn't need bathing every week - in my opinion too it's not good for the coat.
I'm wary of using a dremel and sometimes when one of you are dremelling at a show when I'm there I'd be grateful if you'd show me how you do it! I brought a dremel a few years ago and its still in its box unused!!!
The secret to the dogs co-operating with the dremel is bribery! Mine queue up because they want the treat.
I use the Dremel all the time at home, I have 4 B's that aren't shown at the moment! If its an indoor show and you just briefly dremel the nails they look super clean when they go in the ring!
Very odd…
as the judges here int he PNW shows were Bill Potter and Eric Liebes.
And none of those dogs were in the ring, except "Arrow" CH Emerant's The Navigator (as a specials dog
The super was Onofrio and show results are up at www.onofrio.com for the Timberland Valley shows.
