Hi Vickayx, First let me say Dolce looks adorable. Her white face only makes her look distinguishd. As far as I can determine the only thing mentioned in Basenji Standards is that white should not predominate for her overall appearance and from what you have written you really dont seem to be planning on showing anyway. Years ago I bred Rodesians to show but as I got older I decided that what I wanted most was a little snuggle bug and went to rescue B's. spacicfically those who had had a hard life before me. We now have 2 four legged children who are always rooing to show how happy they are. Enjoy your new baby and remember to try and not let her know she is smarted.
Can't wait!

Well you will always have Basenji sitters for when you need too and you will always have the best present idea(a Basenji) for when your parents have a special anniversary and you don't live at home anymore. You are lucky to have a special relationship with your dog and that your parents let you have one, I also was worried about the reputation Basenii have, but find my boy is what I call a normal dog and definitely has some wonderful qualities. I envy you as you have a whole life ahead of you filled with Basenji to come and I'm sure it will always be interesting.
Jolanda and Kaiser

My breeder had a litter and is planning to have another one next week. The pups are almost two weeks old and I can take one home at nine weeks. I am so excited!
-
Who is your breeder and the pups sire and dam (s)…. many of us here are related by our Basenjis
-
Chris Maxka from Sundiata Basenjis. The dam of the litter that is one week old is Ch. Sundiata's Taffanel and the one that's due next week is Ch. Sundiata's Piccolo. I don't know who the studs are.

Chris has some very nice Basenjis. None of mine are related to hers, but you have a good breeder
