mauigirl lives in Dunwoody!!! She has two, and she is always looking to meet other basenji people!! (I just recently moved from there). I'll alert her & let her know you're here!
Welcome aboard, but do share his registered name ? Who are Dad and Mom and what was his date of birth so we can be sure to add him to the Basenji pedigree on-line database (with a photo ???) for the world to share him.

@karann - The key in my opinion is to visit with Basenjis before you get one... Of course I always recommend that regardless. But for allergies, ask the owners to prepare a small towel that the Basenjis will sleep on for a few days... take that home and put it under your pillow.... will give you a good idea if your allergies will kick up
Adorable face - probably a devil in hiding :p
If the biting is clearly play biting a firm NO should work (and see previous comments). If more serious then try bitter apple spray. You definitely want to stop this type before it gets out of hand.
Mine (3 yrs old) occasionally will bite (gently and really just a mouthing) when trying to get my attention to play. But you can tell from her expression that she knows she did something unacceptable.
Consistent training is the most important thing you could do.
@setidog:
Kenji is absolutely adorable!!! You are going to have so much fun with him!
@Patty:
What beautiful puppies- I particulalry love the red/whites (I mustn't let my tri-colour Miggy hear that!!)
@crystalncody:
Kenji is adorable! Well, they all are!
@Arwen:
The photos have caused a great deal of oooh and ahhing here at work. I want that little red girl. I love all the colors but am really drawn to the red/whites. :) But no puppies for me.
Thanks, we are look forward to our little guy coming home. I'll be putting more pictures up once we get him.
Welcome to the forum! My Ayo is 9 months old today, and trust me it gets better everyday, it's been amazing having him. Have had about four or five really frustrating days but now I really feel we both got the hang of it. we are actually training for our first show here In a couple of weeks
