I applaud you for getting a rescue. There are tooooo many out there. For a first timer, an older one would be good, at least 18mos old or more where their personality is who they are at this age. Research all you can, and if you fill out an application and are denied, no not stop trying. I was denied by a Basenji rescue, and Uzie is my second where I found him right here 'free to good home' so we drove two days to pick him up and he is thriving without fenced in yards. (not for everyone as not everyone lives on 10 acres or more…I get this....!) but he has blossomed and doing well. So, don't give up!

I know of two great basenji breeders in Canada - Chris Frost of Bushwacker and Sam Fortin of Ango Angari. Not sure how close they are to you but I wouldn't hesitate to buy a puppy from either of them!

I wouldn't hesitate to buy a pup from, Dalji, Duara, and Mankia. Dogo Habari, and Mandalay are most likely good too, I just don't think I've met them. All are in ON, and are at: http://www.basenjiclubofcanada.com/BCOC-BreedersDirectory.html

I live in N.J. U.S.A. & I adopted my male (5 yr. old ) male basenji for $75.00 from a shelter. You can always try there.. much more affordable
