Puppies take a lot of your time, and it really isn't fair to the pup unless you have that time to give. It's not good for any dog to spend too much time alone, especially locked in a crate. It can be disastrous for a pup. If you're home a lot, by all means get that special puppy, but if you spend much of your day away, an older dog might be the way to go. Of the five Basenjis I have owned, two I raised and three I adopted between the ages of eight months and three years. It was far easier to cope with already housebroken dogs and integrate them into our home. And down the road, if you do get a puppy, you will have a companion so the pup doesn't have to be alone.

Hello!!:)
My name is Lotta and I live in Sweden. I have one basenji and it?s my first…I have had Golden retriever and Great dane before.
Viggo is 2 year and 3 months old and he gained his swedish championtitle in januari. In 2007 he was the best "Basenjipuppy of the year" and last year he climb all the way up to #5 over the best basenjimales in Sweden. Do I have to say that I am very proud of him??!!;):D
Yesterday we where at a show in Malm? and he was second in championclass and third best male. Not to bad to be the first time in championclass.:DMy family also consist my husband (and his 3 hunting dogs) and our son Jonathan. This was a little about me...
