Welcome to the Forum. It sounds as though this 'protectiveness' has been going on a long time. I agree that probably it would be best to get help from a behaviorist but make sure that they have experience of Basenjis. In the meantime keep him away from your guests. It's possible that he's stirred up by the excitement so it's best to try to keep him calm when people are around.
Hi everyone
-
Welcome to the brat-um,er, I mean Basenji pack!
-
Is your B a puppy or adult?? Any pictures to post?? we love pictures!!!
-
You are obviously a perfect basenji "owner", you have a great sense of humor, and show pride in the number of destroyed objects! We also beam with pride when ours outsmart us, over and over again. Welcome.

Welcome, where did you get your Basenji?…. and one of the biggest requirements for being owned by a Basenji is a sense of humor.....
