While you might have a point, I disagree. I know many pure red lines that not only do not have that red coat you refer to but also it is a very thick coat. This did not come from Brindles. Also black masking on red Basenjis is more the cause than a bleed from Brindles. The black masking is in a number of bloodlines and was around way before the Brindles showed up. Most believe this is coming from Tri's. Black in the tail is also usually from being Tri factored. And I don't say this because I have or breed Brindles, because I don't. I just don't believe the this color is the cause. I think we have a number of lines that produce that rich red color.

Does anyone know anything about this breeder and her dogs? Is she well known and reputable as a breeder?

I don’t know her personally but I’ve seen her at dog shows and yes she is a legitimate breeder.

My husband and I got our Basenji from Mariah. Our boy is now 4 years old. We live in Indiana and communicated with her via email before we traveled to Indy. I can tell you she is very serious about this breed and our transaction went smooth and we are very happy with our boy (Rigley).
