Looks can be so deceiving- here is an article of a woman who adopted a rescue dog in N.J. Dog looks like a basenji - even her vet thought it might be basenji. She did an Embark DNA test - no basenji. Turned out the dog was a mixture of Mountain Cur, Rat Terrier, Beagle, and Boston Terrier. link text
Basenjis: A Complete Pet Owner's Manual by Mary Lou Kenworthy
-
I love this book! I bought a copy when I was in the market for a basenji. I actually got to meet her at a lure coursing meeting (lure coursing is a great activity for basenjis). MaryLou gave me the contacts for the basenji i have now. If you dont have this book you should. Suprisingly I found it at Barnes&Nobles.
-
Because it is a Barron's book, it is one of the easier to get basenji books. I really enjoyed it but I am probably a little biased since it is filled with my dogs' Kenset relatives.
-
Just arrived in the mail today…from e-bay...an autographed blue book (second edition) of Victoria Tudor-Williams' Basenjis, The Barkless Dogs! Not as relevant as Sue Coe's book, but I have wanted one for years!

I also bought this book before getting Dallas & am so grateful I did! It has a lot of useful information about such a unique breed
-
-
A Kennel Club Book: Basenji is also a great book. It has about 155 pages and written by Juliette Cunliffe.
-
So I found two books out by here the first blue one then the one that says Basenjis: Everything About History, Purchase, Care, Training, And Health. Which one is better for soon to be puppy owner?
-
I just purchased Mary Lou Kenworthy's and Juliette Cunliffe's books. Lookin' forward to getting them.
-
The Basenji, by Susan Coe is a great reference to have also
-
I ordered The "Basenji" ( blue book) From America ( i live in Italy)…and loved it!!! It gave me good advice...but will be looking for other ones to read. This one cost me Euro15.00!!! $21.12...thats a lot isnt it??
-
Dio you mean Veronica Tudor Williams' 'Blue' book? If so 15 Euros is a bargain.
-
I've bought this book and find it to be excellent. It's well targeted to basenjis, instead of being a dog book where all they do is edit the name of the breed and pump out numerous owner's manuals. I plan on re-reading it and highlighting the various passages that will help me when I purchase my puppy.
-
Another good book is The Basenji by Susan Coe
-
You can get this book cheap on Amazon. I have these books:
The Second Hand Basenji Handbook
Basenjis by Jack Shafer and Bob Mankey
The Complete Basenji by Elspet Ford
