Hi! I'm a new member in search of my Basenji. I had a wonderful Basenji, Bear, when I was growing up. It's a two cat household and I'd love to add a cat friendly Basenji to the mix, and also meet and learn more about the Basenji community out there.
welcome. can't wait to hear more of your adventures with a new basenji puppy! if you go to the basenji club of america website, you might can find a good breeder close to you and visit.

Welcome! I have seen red and white Shibas that looked just like a long haired basenji. You could have a shiba-basenji mix, perhaps. He is a very cute dog, I see why you are in love. They are hard to resist!
For about $60 there is a DNA test if you are really curious…..
