Welcome to the Forum. It sounds as though this 'protectiveness' has been going on a long time. I agree that probably it would be best to get help from a behaviorist but make sure that they have experience of Basenjis. In the meantime keep him away from your guests. It's possible that he's stirred up by the excitement so it's best to try to keep him calm when people are around.
Hello

Our family has welcomed our newest member, 6 y/o Rama.
She is the first basenji for our family.
We adopted her from an elderly gentleman that could no long take care of her.
Rama came to us a little on the thicker side, so we are working on getting her down to her ideal weight. I love all the info and suggestions I have read on here.
keep up the great work! -
