5 Keys to a Better-Behaved Basenji

5 Steps to a Better Behaved BasenjiWant to live a healthier lifestyle? Get a Basenji. Studies show that pet ownership helps lower blood pressure, reduce stress and wards off feelings of depression and lonliness.While not much can beat the companionship and love of a Basenji, there are a few bad actions that just won’t do – from yelping all day to peeing on the floor to devouring your walls when you’re distracted.
If your Basenji is exhibiting this behavior, it may be acting out because of boredom, pent-up aggression or because of inadequate training. With proper lifestyle changes and diligent training, you can be on our way to having a joyful, better-behaved pet. The following keys will help your companion become more obedient:

Training The Basenji:Spay or neuter

The Humane Society of the United States recommends that this common surgery will help your Basenji have a longer life, be more healthy and reduce behavior issues.

How to Train Your Basenji:Help your pet relax

Similar to people, Basenjis do get nervous, frustrated and stressed out. That’s why many doctors suggest giving your Basenji a calming product, such as pet calming spray, to help relieve hyperactivity.
Formulated from natural ingredients, pet calming spray moves fast to alleviate anxiety, fear, doubt and hyper-aggression and helps anxious pets snooze throughout the night.

Training The Basenji:Have an exercise routine

Pamper your Basenji with routinely scheduled walks two times per day. This will help the Basenji reduce boredom, which can lead to bad behavior.

Training The Basenji:Go to obedience school

According to the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, enrolling your Basenji in an obedience school will show you how to control your Basenji’s actions both safely and humanely.

How to Train Your Basenji:Be patient

Even though training your Basenji to be more disciplined will take focus on your part, it’s surely worth it. After all, as man’s best friend, your Basenji will love bonding with you during the process.
