@donc if this animal is connected to any African dogs of recent import. esp from Benin ( a former Portuguese colony that is possible OR while the numbers registered in the US is small....hunter dogs and packs have been in the US since the late 1800s. typically found in New England with pockets in fl, ca, and Georgia.

We looked at a gorgeous 9 month old Basenji rescue in Indianapolis on Friday, and if all goes smoothly at his vet appointment Tuesday, he will come join our family next week. Our kids have been asking for a dog for 4 years, but think they're not getting one until Christmas. This is hopefully going to be a very fun week. I'll post a picture of "Congo" soon, assuming all goes as planned.

Woo Hoo!!!! Can't wait to see pics and fingers crossed everything goes well!
-
Oh! How fun!!! Fingers are crossed that he moves in soon! What a great surprise for the kids.
I got Jazzy for my birthday two years ago, after dh had insisted NO DOGS for at least five more years.
And Keoki we got in April as a total surprise. NO ONE expected a puppy AT ALL {hee hee not even us, really}. We had him in the back of the van in Jazzy's crate. We asked the kids to get the crate out of the van, and TA DA!!! PUPPY!!
It was fun.Can't wait for photos!
-
Yes, can't wait for pictures… congratulations, hope the Vet visit works out perfect!!!
-
I hope all goes well with the vet. But even if it doesn't (my rescues had some medical problems that I had to deal with–nothing terrible--but it's taken a few months to get them on the road to perfect health), there are many, many conditions that just need a little bit of medical care. So I hope all goes well enough for you to make Congo a member of your family. Can't wait to see photos of Congo and your surprised kids!!
-
Who has Congo? Is it a BRAT dog or from a different rescue org?
-
This is definitely exciting!! Good luck with the transition!!
Is this your first Basenji? We're all here for you!! YEAH!! -
Congo is at Americas Basenji Rescue in loving hands.

www.basenjirescue.us is the website address for Americas Basenji Rescue, but I was not able to access the website well–-it kept bumping me off. I emailed the director directly: keathrhymer@yahoo.com.
