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.
My Basenji Curious George
-
My name is Helen Schneider of Huntsville, Texas and I have a wonderful basenji named George.
Trying to post a picture of my Curious George but I am not that great with computers.
My George is 18 years old !! we found him dumped !! in a remote area north of Midway, Texas.
He and his "wife" had about 5 puppies when we resued them in 1999.
He is a hand full but he has enriched my life like I never would have thought.
Just wondering if George may be one of the oldest basenjis ?
He has pulmonary fibrosis and was diagnosed in 2013. He currently has a steriod inhaler that has helped.
