  • She is adorable! I love the pic where she's standing upright.
    It's always so interesting to me to see how the mixes come out…

    Welcome. Stick around here, and you'll see regular postings about available Basenji all over the US from Craigslist repostings, as well as occasional other golden opportunities from reputable breeders. Have you also filled out an adoption application with BRAT (Basenji Rescue and Transport)? They often have more Basenjis available than the ones listed online, and if you submit an application, you can also get e-mail notifications for new B's available for adoption as well as mixes.

    Good luck in your search!

  • She is adorable…welcome.

  • hi Kat and Paisely, glad that you found us! Paisley looks like an adorable girl - it must be great riding and having her with you.

  • Very cute!

    Welcome!:)

    Welcome. In spite of some folks opinions, this is a very good group.

    In spite of some folks opinions, this is a very good group.

    I will attest to that. About a year ago I joined this forum because I knew a basenji was going to be in my future (as a pet). I jumped in and probably asked many questions that made me look like a 'rookie'. I was. Everyone here provided great information for me. Along with reading books, going to dog shows to see basenjis, and reasearching basenjis online, I was provided with enough knowledge to finally select a breeder and get my splendid male puppy, Kipawa.

    In life, you will always come across people who trigger negative emotions in you. You will not be immune from that on this forum as there are humans here, many of them with strong opinions. The key is to get past what initially appears to be a snarky comment, and look at the information provided to see what you can learn from it. That said, for an online forum, I find this one to have very few bad intentioned people on it. In fact, I don't think there are any.

    We'd love to see more pictures of your basenji! Heaven knows I flood this forum with pictures of Kipawa. ;)

  • Thanks everyone! Paisley is my princess ;-) I have hundreds of other pics of her, so watch out, cause you will get flooded. I just have to figure out how to post them directly in the thread instead of linking pics.

  • Oh wow! She is so lovely! I have never seen such an elegant mix.

  • Welcome, Kat and Paisley! She is a beautiful girl; isn't it amazing how quickly they fill our hearts? :)

    Thank you for adopting this beauty. She looks so much like my first basenji.

    Aggression is an all encompassing term. As pointed out above, there is quite a range! It is not unusual for Basenjis to be dog aggressive. Mine is, and I just avoid other dogs because I know his intentions are not good. Some are same sex aggressive and fine with members of the opposite sex, and some may just be making a statement when they are leashed. If you describe what you are seeing more specifically I am sure lots of people will have common experiences and possible training fixes to share. I would love to see some pictures of Tucker, and welcome to the forum!

    My heart breaks reading your wonderful story of Dinah - it is so clear she is a huge part of your heart -you will have such wonderful memories of her when it is her time to give up the pain. I also do not believe dogs don't have souls - of course they do - the unconditional love they give, the way they try to help when you are emotionally suffering, the joy they get when they see you coming after a separation - all these and more are proof they are very soulful. A loving companion dog is God's gift. All our hearts are with you, and our tears flow with yours. God bless.
