    Hey all,
    Well I finally got around to joining BRAT and will start taking a more active roll in my soon to be Basenji's lives. I currently have no B's but did up until last year both a boy,(Cody) and girl,(Cheyenne), red/white. I never new about the breed until 5yrs. ago and loved them dearly. They both now live in NC. I'm in the market for a pair, any color will do, and looking for offspring from champion lure coursing if any.

    So hello and hope to see some of you at the local dog park.

    P.S. I will be posting some info on a brother/sister, tri color available in Irvine, Ca.

    Best wishes,
    Jim Gloss

    I wouldn't recommend getting a basenji until you've organized your new schedule with baby. basenjis are wonderful dogs, but require a lot of attention and stimulation. If you can't provide that, he could become a frustrated dog and cause mischeif. I've also read that they aren't the best with children. I haven't had the best experience with my basenji and daughter. It has a lot to do with the fact that we can't give him sufficient attention and exercise like he needs. he also hasn't adjusted to my daughter's presence either. that may not be a problem for you because you're having baby first then dog. they say its always a plus because it allows the child to establish a dominence over the dog, since child was there first. i don't want to be a sour apple, but i just want to let families with children know that it can be difficult and dangerous if proper care isn't given. its also unfair to the precious breed if they cant have the active life they need and crave.
