I own five basenjis. Two yodel until you have a headache and my female barks. She always did. Short clipped barks. I also researched the breed before getting my first and she is an excellent dog. My third basenji was a handful. Three years later and he has stopped his destructiveness etc. It was a hard three years. Lol. You never know with a basenji. Greatest breed. Loyal, active, funny but some require ALOT of patience.
Hello from San Diego

Hi. I’ve had Basenjoy since 1988 when we got our first from Edgien’s Basenji in Ohio. Since then we’ve had four more. One from Texas and three from Arizona. Actually we’ve had nine more if you count the litter we had this year. Four girls and a boy. Fairly uneventful other than the fact the semen was from a long dead male.
Our interest is mostly in the more recent African imports, mostly because of concerns with genetic diversity. Definitely not show people. We have done some lure coursing though, given our location, the time commitment is significant, making that difficult.
Looking forward to learning more about our little beasts and sharing whatever insights we can.
