Looking for a brindle bitch

Basenjis For Sale or Wanted
  • Hi all, I am posting for a friend who is looking for a brindle bitch. He is wanting to hunt with her. He spent the weekend with my own basenji and was amazed at his speed, intelligence beauty and hunting ability. He mostly hunts rabbits, but does do squirrel, and some ground birds, and after seeing what my untrained pup can do in just one of his back pastures, he is dead set on getting one himself. He has experience with high energy, somewhat stubborn hounds already. He is absolutely not interested in showing, just high energy and very high prey drive. I am sure I could take her lure coursing with me on a few occasions, but mostly as a pet/hunter. All of his dogs live inside and are well taken care of. His best hunting dog recently passed away and his remaining fiest is getting on in age, so he needs a new hunter. He would prefer a brindle , but where work ability is concerned I am sure he would be fine with a red, tri, or black. We would be willing to travel down to Ohio, but hopefully no further to pick her up. We are located in central Michigan.

    if anyone has a bitch that might fit him, please let me know so i can get you his information, and get you in touch.

  • Was his back pasture fenced? If not, weren't you worried that your basenji would not come back?? If you trained your pup to come back to you outside… DO TELL HOW YOU DID IT!!!

  • His back pasture used to be used for raising miniature goats, so yes the whole thing is fenced with chicken wire all the way around.

    While that was nice I still had my guy on a hugely long horse lunge line. My little guy knows come.. sometimes, but not well enough for me to trust him completely off-lead in that large of an area, its about..18 acres? Since their youngest boy is too old for 4H projects they sold off the goats and cows. now the field is just used for some hunting. They raise some of their own game birds like cotornix quail and chuckars. And well, the rabbits (wild) are all over that back field. I let my little guy "hunt" a few of them, never let him get one though.

    and if anyone can let loose their B with a rock solid come, they need to fill us all in.

    A quick google search yielded this site: www.eurobreeders.com. Search breeds, then B, then look for Basenji. There where many breeders that popped up including a couple in Italy, which isn’t too far I suppose. I have no idea about Basenji breeding in Europe though. Do your homework.

    Go to www.basenji.org and you can search by state... however know that this time of your if you are looking for a pup it will be difficult because most all pups are born in Nov/Dec/Jan as Basenjis only come in season once a year and this is when most all pups are born. And you might have to travel further than those states. You might be looking at next breeding season, so now is the time to contact breeders about their breeding plans for 2020. And also don't get hung up on color or sex...

    If funds are an issues, you can do what I used to do before BRAT came along. Find out the vet of the family your placing him with, have the family pay you for your expenses and then take the dog to the new familys vet for the surgery to be fixed. Drop the dog off the day of the surgery and then new owners pu the dog. They get to pay the bill. That makes sure the dog is fixed, sets up a new vet record for the new dog in the family, and you don't have to pay anything out of pocket. Mostly, you know the surgery WILL BE DONE. Thanks for making sure he is fixed before rehoming. That is so important.
