Trouble? Me??? Noooo!!!


  • What a cutie. :)


  • She's so cute!


  • What a sweet chewing, piddling machine you have on your hands. Laugh.
    Where did you get this sweetheart from?
    Is she your only basenji??


  • Mya is my only Basenji. I hate to say this, but she was a gift of all things. I am not one on puppies as gifts - but my husband saw pictures of the pups and couldn't resist. Since I had a Toy Fox Terrier prior to her - I knew I HAD to read up on her breed. I can't tell everyone how pleased I am to have her as a part of our family. We are all pleased. She is so humorous and playful and very mischevious if unattended (15 wks. old so forgiven in my book). My favorite part of reading up on the Basenji breed is this line… "a tired Basenji is a good Basenji"...that's right on.

    We got her from a local breeder in Pacific MO. We met her parents which are very good dogs. The puppies were very well taken care of socially and physically. Both of the parents are into coursing. And because of this I have also taken coursing into consideration - any comments are welcome!

    Thanks for all of your comments. I love this site and will return daily for more!! I really enjoy all of the pictures and the good, bad, and ugly stories!


  • She is very cute… hopefully her sire and dam have been DNA tested for Fanconi. If not, you should consider getting the test done....

    And coursing is a ball... B's love it...learn about it at www.asfa.org and also there are links to find coursing near you and also the different clubs that offer coursing. Take her early and let her start to practice.. I have had 10 wks old pups watch and start to play with the lure… here is a link to two of our 4 month olds having practice with the lure....http://www.tanzabasenjis.net/lure.html


  • I love to watch the dogs lure course.
    When I retire, I am going to get into that sport.
    But now, the coursing is about 1 1/2 hr one way from my home..
    Sigh.
    Keep us posted on her…she is a doll...


  • She's adorable! Welcome!


  • Sweeet! Very cute puppy :D


  • She's precious!!!


  • What an absolute cutie!


  • Thanks everyone! I'm really glad I found this forum. I'm just full of Basenji knowledge from reading books and using the great info here. It's nice to have a place to come where everyone has such a great interest in Basenji's!!

    @elbrant Yes, she's good an patient sometimes, I've been taking pics of her from day 1 so she's used to it, I'm allowed a couple of mins and no more though.

    Nice looking dog! I'm tempted to get another too once Safi is a bit older.

    @Walter: Thanks Shannanigan…Scarlett is treat driven too but she would rather shred my taxes than do them (that would make her as happy as the hot dog):D! I try and not do too much of the giving her treats thing, I have seen far too many over-weight doggies and it's just as bad for them as it is for us. I feel like it should be ok to treat Scarlett at this growing age for training purposes…Paco probably ate nearly a whole hot dog a day in treats while I was training him as a pup, lol.
