Welcome to the group! I think it is a great idea to visit a breeder of Basenjis with your son. I hope he will be OK with a Basenji and his allergies don't act up because you all will have such fun with a Basenji. They are smart and sassy and funny and so loving and loyal. If you don't have your heart set on a puppy since very few are available now, you might register with Basenji Rescue and Transport to see if they have an older dog for you. My Basenjis have all been rescues and while each was different, each was the light of my life.
Good morning! Soon-to-be owner here!

Good morning everyone! I'm going to be getting a rescue Basenji soon hopefully (put in the adoption application yesterday, just waiting on the right dog to come along). Just wanted to join here and say hello, as I'm sure I'll have plenty of questions.

Welcome to the forum and good luck on finding your new baby.

Yea, we're going through BRAT.
And all the horror stories I hear about Basenjis being destructive when left to their own devices, I have to admit makes me a little nervous, hehe.

Understandable. There is a cute thread on here about Basenji rules. It would be a good read for you. Are you partial to a color ?

I'm a big fan of the tricolor, but they're all beautiful so the color isn't really an issue for me.
