    Good Morning all,

    We are considering getting another puppy, for our 7 month old B Girl. Does anyone have experience with either Debbie Hauri in New Hampshire or Eldorado Basenji's in Attleboro, MA. Any help you could give us would be greatly appreciated.

    Is she a BCOA member? Check out the BCOA site and that will be a good start

    My 3 year old Basenji Sonny is from Debbie. When my brother was choosing between both breeders it was a hands down choice to go with Debbie after visiting both breeders. We couldn't be happier with Sonny. He's a wonderful funny boy with tons of personality! :)

    My 3 basenjis are from Eldorado - Eldorado are definitely BCOA members (Pam is currently BCOA president). Debbie at Mata Hauri is a BCOA member as well.

    I couldn't be happier with my 3 b kids (2 were bred at Eldorado - so actual Eldorado basenjis - and 1 is their import from Finland) - great temperaments and the sisters do a ton of health testing. They are also super helpful no matter how big or small the question - they've pretty much seen it all and are super knowledgeable.

    Debbie is super knowledgeable and a wonderful person and has some beautiful dogs as well.

    I don't think you could go wrong with either.

    I think you would be happy with either… Debbie breds some very nice Basenjis as does Eldorado Basenjis.

    Pam Geoffroy [Eldorado] is President of the BCOA and Debbi Hauri [Mata Hauri] is a longtime Basenji breeder.

    I am sure you would love a pup from either of them :-)

    @debbie said in reputable breeder?: @tanza yes my mistake it was tested with OKC I got papers to prove it.. she was born with the disease Are you referring to OFA? If so then I would wonder if the pup's sire/dam were not the real sire/dam of the pup you got? Only if they are Afflicted with the Fanconi gene (the pup) would they develop Fanconi? Did the paperwork from OFA say "clear"?

    We were saddened and disappointed in our visit there. It was our first exposure to the Breed unfortunately. We are working with Robyn and a reputable breeder in South Georgia currently. We are hopeful for a match with a young adult Or teen. Thanks for your input.

    @Quercus: exactly…the term that you hear most often is for the breeding to "get the money back I spent on the dog" as if a pet were an investment!! ugh... A pet is an investment…. although your returns are in the companionship and affection you receive :D Similar to the way a car is an investment. As soon as you drive it off the lot, it loses much of its value to others (depreciates) & although it provides a service, costs you time, money, upkeep & maintenance for around a decade. But on a more serious note, I like this chart a lot. I do think its a great reference for those who aren't sure what differentiates good breeders from less reputable breeders, even if some of the lines between two different categories could blur or overlap.

    Kathy, were you able to get the dog back? That is heart breaking. The truth is, unless you are rich, contracts don't help much. It is why I stayed co-owner on all my dogs until they were spay/neutered or championship and health clearances finished. It enabled me to go pick up a dog of mine that was being abused while the POS co-owner was at Westminster with her other dog. She didn't have the money to take legal actions, especially since I had pictures and vet documentation. But if I hadn't been able to retrieve the dog and been co-owner, I'd have been sunk.

    @Nemo: Here's the link. http://www.basenji.org/learn/ Go to "screening breeders" at the top. That is a great list…and great explanations of why those questions are important.

    @khanis: Not polished ??? Sorry, but that is one of the silliest things that I have heard in ages. **I'm sorry; to what is this referring? :confused: I have seen dogs that are uglier than sin.. in the show ring no less! People that can't breed a decent looking domestic basenji aren't going to be able to breed a decent looking African basenji! **Uglier than sin? Really? I really prefer health and temperament and function as breeding goals. IMHO. How is that for a bunch of African beauties??? **Your dogs are quite lovely. So are my two Jasiri-Sukari B's. But neither would win in a show. We think they're beautiful, too. And they both have sweet temperaments. Lucky us. :) s.
