Hello Marian,
Welcome. What a happy home it must be.
We are Kees-Jan and Anne-Marie from Marken, north of Amsterdam. Where do you live? Maybe we can walk together some time? Also check http://www.basenji-club.nl/ for basenji walks.
We have two daughters from Abotere Khamau, Lela and Binti (2,5 and 3,5 years old) - our first dogs, and we recognize a lot that you wrote.
People warned us about getting a basenji, but we have not been happier since they took over our house and hearts. Lela came with us as a pup (enought to keep you busy) and Binti joined half a year later - it took her around 1,5 years to really settle.
Here's a picture with their big mama friend Kiko the Akita https://picasaweb.google.com/lh/photo/dNOYjJPSlhUGbZK3LZxvbwxZLf3J_PvRjNp46MdVlt4?feat=directlink
We hope to meet all of you soon.
Hello from Benson, North Carolina

My name is Angela & I have a wonderful Basenji/ Chihuahua mix, Chelsea. I rescued her as a small puppy in October of 2014 & was told she was a Chi only. it took a couple months of watching her grow & investigating to come to the conclusion she was mixed with Basenji! I had never even heard of this bread so obviously had never dealt with one.
While she is probably the most independent hard headed puppy I have ever been around…I love her to pieces!! she is so entertaining & unique. I will post pics as soon as possible. Thank you so much for welcoming me into this group. -
Hi Angela. I didn't see your post in the 'new posts" threads and just noticed today over on the side. Welcome to the forum. We'd love to see pictures!
