  • My name is Angela & I have a wonderful Basenji/ Chihuahua mix, Chelsea. I rescued her as a small puppy in October of 2014 & was told she was a Chi only. it took a couple months of watching her grow & investigating to come to the conclusion she was mixed with Basenji! I had never even heard of this bread so obviously had never dealt with one.
    While she is probably the most independent hard headed puppy I have ever been around…I love her to pieces!! she is so entertaining & unique. I will post pics as soon as possible. Thank you so much for welcoming me into this group.

  • Hi Angela. I didn't see your post in the 'new posts" threads and just noticed today over on the side. Welcome to the forum. We'd love to see pictures!

  • I also missed this one. Welcome to the forum!

    I own five basenjis. Two yodel until you have a headache and my female barks. She always did. Short clipped barks. I also researched the breed before getting my first and she is an excellent dog. My third basenji was a handful. Three years later and he has stopped his destructiveness etc. It was a hard three years. Lol. You never know with a basenji. Greatest breed. Loyal, active, funny but some require ALOT of patience.

    Welcome to the forum! I'm on the southern coast of NC and have a 6 year old boy. And I agree, we should have a meet-up :)

    Welcome, from another Ohioan. We are on the north side of columbus and have 1 r/w boy. We have occasionaly taken him to the Westerville dog park but his behavior has not be great lately. We have cut back. We also help BRAT transport and foster. Great to have more B's in Ohio. I see so few of them in Columbus.

    Have you considered adopting from BRAT? I adopted my Jojo from BRAT and she is wonderful…they have puppies sometimes but they are not usually listed on the adoption page...you need to contact the adoption coordinator in your state or closest to your state about a pup...
