You can help allergic reaction with most breeds by simply grooming regularly and wiping down with even something like baby wipes. But no dog is hypoallergenic.If your allergies are mild you can do what many of us do, just take antihistamines. 🙂 If severe, sadly you should not count on a basenji to no set them off. Some nonshedding dogs do better, but they also have dander and saliva, so they also are NOT hypoallergenic.
Good morning! Soon-to-be owner here!

Good morning everyone! I'm going to be getting a rescue Basenji soon hopefully (put in the adoption application yesterday, just waiting on the right dog to come along). Just wanted to join here and say hello, as I'm sure I'll have plenty of questions.

Welcome to the forum and good luck on finding your new baby.

This would be a good time to "basenji proof" your home. good luck to you. did you go through BRAT?

Yea, we're going through BRAT.
And all the horror stories I hear about Basenjis being destructive when left to their own devices, I have to admit makes me a little nervous, hehe.

Understandable. There is a cute thread on here about Basenji rules. It would be a good read for you. Are you partial to a color ?

I'm a big fan of the tricolor, but they're all beautiful so the color isn't really an issue for me.
