    I have a pure blood basenji pup that needs a good home. Basenji's are very loyal and Jake has been a great friend. Unfortunately, due to the time I spend in school, he doesn't get the attention he deserves. He is just over a year old and is house and crate trained. He does very well with children and other dogs, but not cats. He has all of his shots and I have his parent's information from the AKC so all that is needed is his registration. He will come with a crate and food for a couple weeks. He needs a good family that will be able to give him the attention and love he deserves. I can be reached at 757-353-8538 if you are interested. Thank you for your time.

    Basenji's are a barkless dog.
    This basenji is low key and aloof.
    He does well with other animals of all types.
    He is not super playful, but once he warms up he will play occasionally and tear up stuffed animals.
    He is 10 but in very good shape, he would do well with a yard or enjoy a walk once a day.
    He is a rescue dog, he was once an American/Can show dog champion.
    I've had him for about 2 years now and I am unable to give him the love and care that he needs.
    He sleeps a lot and just needs TLC.
    If you are a dog lover and are looking for a low key, low detail dog he may be right for you.
    He would do well with older retired individual as well.
    Serious inquiries only please :)

  • It's raining basenjis around here!

  • The second Tampa listing (Am/Can Ch) is for Sid, the dog being discussed on another thread so really only two new ones, which is two too many - interesting how young they are - the normal time folks tire of them. :O(

  • Good way to put it Linda…. "tire of them"!!! So sad that people consider their pets throw away when they no longer want to spend the time necessary.

  • Thank heavens for BRAT and responsible breeders.

  • A friend of ours talked to the woman with the 7 month old female today. The original owner was older, got her from a shelter (as a Jack Russell) and she was just too much energy. The current 'foster' took her to help the original owner, but she has several other dogs, the basenji has already escaped once. She has chickens, etc., and her husband wants her re-homed soon. I saw a (poor quality) photo and she looks pure basenji but has one drop-tipped ear and barks occasionally, she is intact still. No one I know is up for a youngster like this, but we are asking around. If anyone out there is interested,I'll help with transport.

    Here's what I know: 2 bites to one foster mom. The first was over chicken, trying to take it away from him. The second was over going into the crate. I have not seen any aggression over the crate unless you're forcing him in, he goes in great with a little treat, and now we don't even have to do that. He sleeps in the crate and goes in there when he's not supervised or we're not home. I think she needed stitches for both, but she's older and disabled.

    @Janneke: Sahel is a gorgeous girl! I hope she finds a good home soon! This is what I don't understand.. The pup is about a year old and the owner wants to get rid of her because: "I'll be traveling and working more this year, so I'm finding a new home for a beautiful and sweet female Basenji" What about thinking before getting a dog :( It is possible that the owner has a new job, something possibly unexpected especially with the sketchy job market in the US presently. In any case it sounds as if the owner cares about her and would like to find a good home.

    Oh, I don't. I can only "have" 2 dogs, but I sure work like heavens to get the dogs matched from the rescue group to the home. Win/win. worth more than gold to find the right place that cares for the dogs forever.
