Hi Jen, I am in Tampa and know a basenji mix named Charlie who lives in St. Pete. He is a tri, tall and very fast, wonder if it is the same one I know. Can't remember his owner's name, she has a couple of chihuahuas too. We have a group that meets t a dog park in Tampa most every Sunday, we had 11 basenjis there last weekend. You are welcome to join us any time, you can see an assortment of basenjis from age 13 to less than a year. Welcome!

Hello Anne, yes that is the same Charlie! She is an older woman with an English accent and she said that Charlie is mixed with a Collie or shepard of some sort. Him along with the rest of her pack, is such a doll and get's along great with my boyfriends dog. Wow, I would love to come sometime and bring along our little mutt to join in the fun! I will keep my eyes and ears open for another meetin of yours and do if you have the chance let me know in advance as well.

We meet up every Sunday around 11 at West Park in Hillsborough County (Tampa). I will be out of town this Sunday, taking the fur-kids to Flagler beach for a couple of days, but we have rarely missed a Sunday in the last 6 years! Some days we only have 4 or 6 basenjis, some Sundays up to 11 or 12. just let me know when you might come, I'll be sure and be there. Charlie's mom is friends with a very nice woman named Bambi who has 2 basenjis, Seff and Eshe, I think they meet up at the park occasionally so you may know them too.
Looking forward to meeting you and your pup.Anne

Oh wow, that's quite a long time! Have fun on your trip to Flagler I'm sure your pups will thoroughly enjoy it. I will let you know for sure when I'm going to come, I think it would be a great thing for me and would let me be more exposed to some Basenji's and their owners. I believe I do know the dogs, I haven't spoken with their owner yet but I do see them on occasion. I did just find a female Basenji Mix at a shelter, I'm hoping that the foster parents call me back. I'm crossing my fingers!

I know this isn't near you at all, but if you were up for a road trip… looks like basenjis of all ages, even pups, need homes.

My folks are in St. Pete! They have what we think might be a b mix, but my parents just insist that she is a black and white curly tailed dog. Just out of curiosity- the lovelyships name caught me- are you a sailor?
Hope you find the perfect b for you!

http://www.petfinder.com/petnote/displaypet.cgi?petid=12301975Wow, gosh do I wish I could get up to MI for this. But, as well know money is tight for everyone and I just sadly couldn't afford to go up there.:( If there was a way for them to even transport half way, which is not possible they're a shelter, I would jump on a chance in a heartbeat! Thank you for your help though it is imensely appreciated.

Haha, well she sounds like she could be one! My boyfriends dog (Flea) was of unknown breed until I told him about Basenjis and sure enough he is a mix! Nope, haah Not a sailor I can barely swim actually. It was out of a song that I really used to like a long time ago and the name has stuck with me. Plus, I used to live outside of Boston and would go in and watch the sailboats in the bay and did think it was lovely;) .
