Last I heard, the Breed Club secretaries had more people waiting or wanting pups than were available . You could get on a list for a Basenji next winter but I very much doubt you will find one still unsold. Go to the website of the BCGB, or the Northern Basenji Society as you are in the North and you will find email addresses of the secretaries. They will put you in touch with breeders who may be planning a litter for puppies to become ready to leave the nest in about a year's time.
Its a long wait I know, but you have most probably missed the boat for now.
You are welcome to post me privately.
Good luck!
Which breed is my dog? is he really a basenji?
-
Can someone please tell me which kind of breed i have?
i thought it was basenji but it looks a little different from basenjis.
it has bushy tail and some other characteristics..it can bark as hell..
he is very good at barking :D.. and i know basenjis cant really bark so Can someone pls help me with the kind of breed he is?
! -
Could be mixed with most anything. About the best you can do to find out is do a dna wisdom panel.
-
I would say he is definitely a basenji.......I have had 2 basenjis that barked.......They just don't bark as often as other dogs.
-
Doesn't look like a purebred, but definitely has Basenji characteristics. Yes, they can bark, but generally only occasionally and never continuously. Generally just once, or once, then a pause, then again. With my dogs, the ones that barked only did it when startled, or on viewing something they were suspicious or nervous about.
-
Could be a mix.... not a purebred..... very handsome however.

@DebraDownSouth okay thank you
-
@jumblie yh i think so but he barks very often. i think he even barks more than some dogs ive owned and thats what made me had doubts he could be a basenji
-
@eeeefarm he can bark continuously..he barks very often and that what confuses me cuz i know basenji barely barks.. but for my dog , he barks very often
-
@tanza thank you
-
@SmokeyBeatZ-Gh
If you go 45 secs in, you can hear the normal basenji bark... a boof, not bow wow wow of most dogs. -
@DebraDownSouth yh my dog does the "boof" sometimes early in the morning when he sees me..but thats once in a while.. but not often
but he does the "bow wow wow" kind of barking most often.. just like any other dog. he barks better than most dogs i might say -
So maybe a mix. I wish i had done a dna of my chow/coyote with some of the new panels. If you really want to get a good idea, wisdom panel is one of the better ones.

@DebraDownSouth thank u very much dear
-
And if you do get him DNAed, let us know.
