I applaud you for getting a rescue. There are tooooo many out there. For a first timer, an older one would be good, at least 18mos old or more where their personality is who they are at this age. Research all you can, and if you fill out an application and are denied, no not stop trying. I was denied by a Basenji rescue, and Uzie is my second where I found him right here 'free to good home' so we drove two days to pick him up and he is thriving without fenced in yards. (not for everyone as not everyone lives on 10 acres or more…I get this....!) but he has blossomed and doing well. So, don't give up!

I've discovered the reason that Basenjis like to unstuff furniture!!!

I'm sure every Basenji owner will see this, cringe, and then laugh.
They will go to extreme measures for a warm spot to sleep.

You know you are a basenji owner when you look at this giggle a little and think how adorable the dog is…
-
You always have to wonder, what are they thinking? …and that they are always pleased as punch at "what a good job" they did!!

Just a very sensible Basenji!!!

I'm so glad that isn't one of my kidz. but it did make me giggle.

Very funny & cute

I have dog beds and blankets all over the living room. I want the dogs to "root" in those, and keep the couch for us humans. I do find b's need something to "scratch" on before they lay down. Lot's of throws help this.

Well we all know how intelligent they are (and comfort king and queens!). So to take a solid from a space and know a void must be filled for balance in nature…..very smart indeed! AND TOOOOO CUTE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

haha, very funny.. don't be surprised if he swallowed all that missing couch!!!!
