They have a reputation for being stubborn, but they can be taught in the hands of a skilled trainer. The Basenji has associated with man since long before the building of the pyramids. This fascinating hound is still used as a hunting dog by people in Africa to this day. They are not terribly obedient. It is important to establish yourself as the pack leader with the Basenji, so early obedience training is important. The Basenji has a lot of energy and loves to play and to stay busy. They will need plenty of exercise. While they are predominantly used as hunting dogs, they also excel at lure coursing, agility, and tracking. It is true that the Basenji doesn't bark, and it is a quiet breed most of the time. But it is not silent. The Basenji can be loud when he wants to be. They can crow like a young rooster, whimper, and whine. It has a loud growl when it needs one and it actually yodels when it's happy. It also wails when It's unhappy. The Basenji is affectionate, but not as demonstrative as other breeds. It loves his human family, but can be aloof with strangers, so early socialization is important. Because it doesn't bark, it is not a watch dog in the traditional sense, but it is alert and will make noise to let you know if something is wrong. It is also naturally protective of his family, especially children.

Guided smart rifle


The smart rifle is packed with sensors and it own computer to control the firing process. TrackingPoint’s rifle increases the pull strength of the trigger until the the the target is aligned. In this way, the shooter is more likely to hit their target and accidental firings can be largely avoided. The Smart Rifle tags targets within a 500-1200 yard range and automatically shoots them - even if they're moving as fast as 10 miles per hour. so, there is no need for sharpshooters. The self-aiming semi-automatic rifle does all the heavy lifting. The high-tech sight then takes into account humidity, wind and the typical ballistic drop you'd expect from a bullet fired over such a distance. It uses a built in computer to aim at a target, and can even 'lock on' top targets and automatically track them. Once the target has been selected, the scope provides cross-hairs which have to be lined up with the pin that is dropped on the target. The system includes a Linux-powered computer in the scope with sensors that collect imagery and ballistic data. TTX system – which tracks Range, drop, magnus effect, spindrift, coriolis effect, direction, cant, inclination, pressure, temperature, humidity, muzzle velocity, barrel length and twist, lock time, ballistic coefficient, and drag coefficient, according to DigitalTrends. To ensure accuracy, the shooter can not even squeeze the trigger unless the cross-hairs and pin are alined. To shoot at something, First 'mark' it using a button near the trigger. Marking a target illuminates it with the tracking scope's built-in laser, and the target gains a red pip in the scope's display. The shooter is more likely to hit their target and accidental firings can be largely avoided. The makers of the rifle also claim that the gun is safer than a standard bolt action rifle. The U.S. military has begun testing several so-called smart rifles made by TrackingPoint.
