Family near Indy needing a Basenji !

Basenjis For Sale or Wanted
  • Well as I said in the welcome thread, I live just west of Indy, and have been wanting a Basenji for a few years, my daughter is finally old enough where it is practical, as well as my schedule will now allow me to invest in one

    I am looking to make a Basenji part of our family and and spoil her or him rotten.;)

    Due to my wife's allergies we must have a purebred, but I am trying to obtain one at a somewhat "reasonable" price if possible. However I really can't put a price on what he would mean to us. so… let me know !!

  • Please consider www.basenjirescue.org as a resource. So many dogs need homes and they can be of great support to you! I wish you the best.

  • Are you west of Indy as in Indianapolis IN?
    I am in Lebanon if you are.
    I adopted from BRAT in Nov of O5 and I was very impressed with them as an organization. They made sure that my basenji and I were a good fit and the people are so nice.
    I also ended up with an amazing little boy who I wouldnt trade for anything.
    Check on the BRAT website, I know of one that is available to the right home, but there are usually more that are in the process of being posted. Get your home visit scheduled and let them know you and know what kind of B you are looking for and they may be able to find you one.

    Hurry up and get yours, its almost "dog park" weather:)

    My Squiggy and my sister's Petey love to go to the Eagle creek park. Maybe we will see you there!:)

    I will keep them crossed for you guys!

    Squiggy and I went o Eagle Creek dog park yesterday and although it was a muddy mess he had a blast. Some of the dogs would not chase him (which is his fave game)….So hurry up and get yours so my B can have some competition out there :)

    BRAT really is great, keep us all her updated.

  • I actually have something (female) that might fit the bill for you - if you have not found anyone by you - let me know.

    @jodymp another post you sent stated you were in Yorkshire... so, are you looking for a pup in Europe? Do you have a specific region, or a distance range where you are focusing your search?

    Research isn't over until you've read my Put-Off and the other articles about life with a Basenji while not doing the Breed a disservice ! Details are in the signature block - and talk to Bushwacker. She takes care of temperament and quality !

    @naz-roseberry I think it will work out well with Cutlers "Grandma & Grandpa" lol. I think that the move to a new neighborhood with 10 times the kids upset Cutler bcoz it was 10 times more noise than he was used to. Plus, I think some kids teased Cutler when you weren't right there with him & it was just too much for him noise wise & the teasing just flat pissed him off! At least Cutler is still in the family! He knows the people he's going to live with & he'll be able to see his before family when you all go to visit! I couldn't imagine how hard it would be to have to put him down just because he wasn't able to adjust to the new neighborhood. I'm really happy that you don't have to go thru that too. Hopefully, all's well that ends well ~ right? Take Care! Nancy Berry

    Hi There, I live in Mid-Michigan and we are expecting our 2nd litter here in couple of weeks. We are not breeders but we have 3 basenjis, 1 is from our last litter. She is due within the next couple of weeks and they will be ready to go closer to the beginner of February. Feel free to contact me if you'd like. -Shelda

    @Roxy: And what's the most often phrase for breeding low quality folks like yourself? "I was drunk.":eek: nice punchline. This thread is out of hand.
