@venserro - Please be sure to check out pedigrees and also health testing, you should always check that out for yourself... I always refer anyone interested in Basenjis, including my own breed to Ofa.org to review DNA testing... you can look for responsible breeders at www.basenji.org and you would be better looking at the Pacific Northwest...pleaseask for references and for sure health testing.

ISO Basenji in Midwest
-
Does anyone know of any breeders in the midwest who is still actively breeding? I am looking for a puppy/ young basenji in Minnesota and am struggling to find one. I am more than willing to travel.
Thank you for your time.

All of my basenjis have come from Tad Brooks (Meisterhaus- KY) and Jan Kahl (Jadaka- MO). There are a lot of great breeders in the Midwest!

Go to www.basenji.org and you can search for breeders by state
-
the AKC Marketplace lists a dozen or so breeders with pups (or pups coming)... not sure which would be the closest to your location. I don't know who is respectable and who isn't either... just passing the link along...

An excellent breeder nearby (Poynette WI) is Laura Mae Hesse (Laurel kennels)

@elbrant - I would suggest that a better choice to find a responsible breeder is to go to the parent club for the Basenji, www.basenji.org and search by state. Anyone can advertise at AKC Marketplace and not all that are on that site are responsible breeders. Make sure to do your homework first....
