  • Hi. I don't have a Basenji but I'm acquainted with them and am considering acquiring one. I do "long-term" scouting before I get a dog. I gave nine years thought to my Dalmatian and took up riding a recumbent bike a year and a half before I got him. Raleigh is going to be 10 in August and still going strong. He's healthy except for a seizure disorder that showed up the day before he turned 21 months. He recently started having neurological disorder and I remembered that coconut oil helps dementia so I started him on that. It saved his life because I would have had to have him put down eventually. When he does leave the fold, I would like to get a smaller dog but one I can do things with. My Chihuahua, Jack, is sturdy and goes almost everywhere with me, but he can hardly go for a bicycle run. I'm retired and home almost all of the time.
    Anyway, any information on living with a Basenji, reputable breeders in Dallas or Oklahoma, etc, will be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Leslie

    Big hugs to you for adopting an older basenji. My heart gets broken when I see the senior b's on the BRAT web page. :( So give Pippi a hug for me.

    @WriggleysMom: We've always had rescues and I feel like I've missed out on puppy antics, so I'm debating. Toby doesn't baroo or wag his tail and I really miss being met at the door with a welcome baroo and a tail trying to wag itself off!! I had a puppy and was getting the urge for another but now we have a 7-mo old foster and I can't take my eyes off her. I remembered I really did not miss that!
