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.

Hello Everyone,
After more than 15 years without I now have a new Basenji. We live here in the Portland Oregon area. I had a couple of basenjis as a small child before my parents started breeding goldens. I got a Jack Russel for myself about 2 years ago and realized that a one dog house was not enough. So I thought long and hard about what kind of a dog to get that would be able to keep up with my Jacks energy and personality. Finaly I realized that I had totaly neglected to think about basenjis. So after almost 8 months of breeder research I found one I was comfortable with (Both the breeder and the bloodline), and now Charlie (My Jack) and I have welcomed into our house a little 10 week old female named Zaire.
