Welcome to the group! I think it is a great idea to visit a breeder of Basenjis with your son. I hope he will be OK with a Basenji and his allergies don't act up because you all will have such fun with a Basenji. They are smart and sassy and funny and so loving and loyal. If you don't have your heart set on a puppy since very few are available now, you might register with Basenji Rescue and Transport to see if they have an older dog for you. My Basenjis have all been rescues and while each was different, each was the light of my life.

Hi All! What a great online community. We are brand new to Basenji life, but loving every mile of the puppy marathon. Our little guy is almost 15 weeks old and we've had him for 3 weeks. He goes by Appa (if you know, you know) and he's been an amazing addition to our family! Looking forward to plugging in and asking lots of questions.

Congrats and welcome Appa! Post pictures of the new pup because obviously we love to see them all!

Welcome aboard, but do share his registered name ? Who are Dad and Mom and what was his date of birth so we can be sure to add him to the Basenji pedigree on-line database (with a photo ???) for the world to share him.
