Ask the breeder how big the sire and dam are. That's a good idea. My first basenji, who was a champion, weighed nearly 26 pounds when she matured. My 2nd one would have been about that, but thanks to steroids, we did good to keep her at 30. My current rescue is a giant. We won't go there. I first dreamed of a SMALL dog, maybe 15 pounds tops after years of being a BIG DOG person (rottweilers and chows). I don't see that ever happening.
Our new pup, Dexter!

We got Dex a week and a half ago. Here are some 4 month shots, thought I should share!
-
Gorgeous coat - and he is such a cutie! In your second picture, we had the exact 'tail' toy! However, it went to dog toy heaven pretty quickly.
-
I expected the same to happen on our end, but he's unusually gentle with the tail toy! He does love to throw it though
-
Awww, he is adorable!
-
Is his daddy Ojo?
-
Oh my goodness… What an absolute CUTIE. Major jealousy.
-
What a little sweetheart. Love eye to eye.

He IS adorable. Did you end up getting a puppy from Kyle?
-
Yes, we went through Kyle and we're so glad we did! His dad is Ojo and his mother is Portia. He's a really special little guy - will make a great therapy dog for the local Children's Hospital!
-
Congrats! He is super cute…I don't think I have ever seen the tan bar above the nose before..maybe because they often have white there..he looks like a sweet heart
-
He looks much like his Dad.
-
wow…how adorable is he...I love your pictures, they are all so good..
-
Congrats…he is adorable. You are so lucky and I am sooo jealous. I so wanted an Ojo puppy. I was absolutely smitten with his brother.
You have a sweet pup - I met him in Harrisburg - very nice pup! You will be very happy with him and you chose a great breeder!

WOW what a cutie! Is he full Basenji? He's SO awesome looking!!

Congratulations…what a beautiful puppy

He is beautiful - such a shiny coat, and his markings are very pronounced. You must be thrilled with him.
