Last I heard, the Breed Club secretaries had more people waiting or wanting pups than were available . You could get on a list for a Basenji next winter but I very much doubt you will find one still unsold. Go to the website of the BCGB, or the Northern Basenji Society as you are in the North and you will find email addresses of the secretaries. They will put you in touch with breeders who may be planning a litter for puppies to become ready to leave the nest in about a year's time.
Its a long wait I know, but you have most probably missed the boat for now.
You are welcome to post me privately.
Good luck!
Is my dog a Basenji? Can you help me figure it out?

Hello.
After a year or so of thinking my rescue-shelter dog was part jindo-shepherd, maybe lab maybe pit maybe something else, and after a year or so of searching for these mixes on the internet I think I have figured out that she is a basenji mix! She has all the characteristics of a basenji….she might be half jindo as well....but I am still trying to figure it out....what do you guys think????
thank you!

She is very cute, not sure I would say Basenji.. but you are welcome all the same

For about $60-$70 you can find out what she is, with a DNA test. I have seen it in an Orvis Dog Catalogue, and also in Jefferspet.com.
She is very cute, how big is she?

My guess would be probably not a basenji mix.
I agree with your guess.
Lab pitbull mix.
Definitely lab coat and lab body, and definitely pit head.
If you really want to know, you can pay to get a DNA test done to
determine what kind of mix she is.As long as she is a sweet loving dog, who cares what kind of
mixes is she, right???Again, welcome aboard!

She is super cute! Gorgeous white coat. I have basenji mixes. Daisy is Basenji-beagle, and Duke is Basenji-jack (I think) I don't care to do the dna test, because - I love my furkids just the way they came. Welcome to the forums - lots of fun and information on about everything.

i'm not a B expert, but can see it could be a B mixed with pit. The ears, black nose and oval paws are characteristics of a B. I think the behavior/attitude would be more indicative of the breed. Do you see any wrinkles in the forehead?
-
She sure is cute. I don't see any basenji though. Maybe part Jindo, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Korea_Jindo_Dog

I don't see any Basenji in her but she is a gorgeous dog! Jindo is a very rare breed but with the largest of its populace being located in California, there is a possibility it could be a Jindo mix. Her body screams Labrador to me though.
-
What a cutie. I don't see any phisical characteristics of a B in her, but her face, ears, and body look identical to a sheperd/lab mix I owned many years ago.(one of the most loyal dogs I have ever had the pleasure of working with)

Don't most dogs have a black nose?
All of mine have – yellow lab, doberman, corgi, golden........

I don't see any Basenji there. Was it behavior characteristics you were referrign to?
She's cute though – you'd lose her in a heavy fog, LOL.
-
I would bet that your dog is mostly Korean Jindo. Looks almost identical with the exception that most Jindo's have slightly longer hair. Jindu and a mix of a dog with shorter hair.

The ibizan hound and i think the pharaohs also have red noses.

Rudolph has a read nose!
