Responsible Breeders

Basenji Puppy Pen
  • Once again it is getting to that time of year that people are "thinking" about maybe getting a puppy. Regardless of what breed you might be thinking of including Basenjis, it is important that you go to a responsible breeder.

    Please visit this link on how (and why) to find a responsible breeder

  • Pat, I've also been guiding them here and asking them to become members so they can learn a little more about Basenji's than they already know. Many people thinking of this breed think they are barkless, odorless, and are trainable! After reading a few threads they either come back and say no way, or show me where to go from here.

    Yeah, I think a retired, already trained basenji will be a perfect first dog :)

    Congrats on picking a breeder and getting on the future puppy list…hope you are successful in getting a pup! :D How exciting! Oh, and regarding the sleeping - I truly think the secret weapon for sleep, besides wearing my pup out before bed, was the snugglepuppy that Lisa (lvoss) recommended. Definitely get one of those! Liyah had no problems sleeping - I only remember her crying the first 2 nights and then only for 15 or 20 minutes, otherwise, I've always had my full night sleep. So sleepwise, for me a puppy was easy, as was potty training.
