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.
Dolce is finally here and loves her new friends!

Wow! She's adorable! That blue eye is fantastic, I've never seen that with Basenjis. x)
-
What a lovely puppy
Congratulations
-
I love her unusual markings and blue eye. She's a real cutie-pie.
-
Is she a PB Basenji? If so, please have her eyes checked by an opthalmologist. How old is she?

Jennifer, she is a PB, she comes from Eldorado Kennel and her eye concern has already been discussed in a previous post..
-
Cute Cute Cute
And what a striking girl she's going to grow up to be!
I love blue eyes on a dog. -
Yes she is… come from Pam and Sheila... Eldorado... their lines have "blue" eyes in the pedigrees and with the excessive white can happen... if you go to their site you can see the entire litter that she came from... lots of white in that litter
-
Dolce is just gorgeous! Her coloring, including that bright blue eye, is wonderful. Good luck with her - such a cutie!
-
I love the white and the blue eye its my favorite feature other than her personality. They did a great job handling her and raising her she is great!
-
I love her looks! It is hard to see the eyes on black dogs, so I only see that one gorgeous blue eye when I first look at her. She is a 'knock-out' and a lucky dog too to be in such a loving home. But as someone said, enjoy it NOW, they re so sweet and charming to make you fall in love, so in a few months when 'the demon dog' appears, you will just think it is funny, and you needed new shoes (or a couch, or a coat, etc.) anyway. And you will be so impressed at her ability to open doors and climb onto the counters, you will only laugh!

Yah she has learned to ring the poochie bells only if she knows the other dogs that live upstairs are outside.. makes me laugh cause she doesn't do it any other time hahha
