@debradownsouth Thank you for the kind words but I have to admit... I take young adults for my own convenience. I simply don't have time, stamina or energy to deal with the pups as adorable as they are. Having a puppy is like having a baby or too! Did I mention I was not into children and babies or can you guess?lol. I love the retirees. they are already used to crates (although Ollie is now somewhat recalcitrant about getting into hers because she would rather hang out with her now "Mom", lol!! They travel well. They are usually somewhat used to people. Ollie is not used to playing by herself and is just getting used to "big" breeds. She doesn't get the commands "sit, down or stay" yet but we are working on it. She is the champ of the "heel" command however!!

Hello, found this forum again after some time away. Looks good and looking forward to some interesting discussion.
As a little background I have had Basenjis for 22 Years, my main interests are showing and judging, and occasionally breed a litter when I am ready for a new addition.....5 litters in 22 years!
I am a member of all three Basenji breed clubs in the UK, I am Breed Health coordinator for Basenjis and take a real interest in health matters.
I am a Kennel Club Member and I am approved to award CC's in Basenjis, with my first CC appointment at Windsor Championship Show this year.
All the Best! :0)

Love to hear your doings.
We went to the Portland, Org dog show and saw a few Basenji.
