    Excellent advise already.

    I would contact your local breed club, not just the breeders.

    https://www.basenji.org/index.php/about-basenjis/breeder-directory

    Contact ALL the breeders within driving distance and let them know you are interested. While many pups are ready to go home, homes fall through for a variety of reasons... so be on the list. :) Also, if you are interested in an older dog, let them know that. Many breeders have under a year to 5 yr olds that simply didn't fit the program or had a litter or 2 and are ready to be lavished with a lot of personal attention. Good luck in your hunt!

    Thank you so much for the responses. They are very helpful! I’m originally from Ohio and still visit my family there quite often so a drive out there to pick up a pup would be easy for me! Do you have any names you could share?

    Yes of course!
    Laurie Owen - Spring Willow
    Becky Blansett - Epic
    Tim Huff - Victory
    Sue kite - Klassic

    My parents have a little girl from Laurie and I think she may have an “out of season” litter. She is on Facebook and very nice. Always welcomes people into her home to see her dogs. :). She’s on Facebook, send her a message!

    I don’t know that the others have any pups left this year or plans to breed til fall but they all have nice dogs!

    Hi Denise, I live in Boston and twice have gotten basenjis from Eldorado Basenji in North Attleboro. I cannot recommend them enough - the two breeders in charge know everything about the breed and are truly passionate about their work and love their dogs. They have puppies in November and December, but have adult basenjis (under 3) available throughout the year. The dogs are beautiful and healthy with excellent genes. I highly recommend them!

    Hi there from faR away,
    But, there is a breeder who breeds Africans, her name is CarolAnn Worsham, and she lives in Ohio near Columbus. Good luck with your search.

    @luigifrangigi - Also not all are good with social media (email), try calling them direct... sometimes it works better.

    @liliana He co-breeds with several people under the Mibre and Skyewalker affixes. If you go to my pedigree database website and ask it for either, you will find a host of pedigrees and can follow them back to see if Fanconi or PRA tests have been done. See signature block.

    @noble-labradors said in Looking for a reputable breeder: According to AKC, Labs are the number one most popular breed in America because of their intelligence and loyalty. Check out our labs in https://noblelabradors.com. Here is a thought. When someone goes to another breed's forum and advertises their dogs, when RESPONSIBLE breeders generally have legit breed specific places to notify of litters, and to find good homes.... how desperate or bad does that breeder have to be? Another thought, go to the page. :) You can see first hand what a puppymill/backyard breeder page looks like. :) Puppies for sale, purebred litter born. A responsible breeder has sire/dam, testing, titles listed. They are selling you responsibly bred, tested and make health a priority. The others... well, just wants to sell you a puppy. "Noble"... more like ignoble. OH, and as a bonus there, you get to keep paying through the nose by being REQUIRE to buy into their pyramid sales items: , feeding them only Life’s Abundance dog food advanced nutrition diet, as well as NuVet immune system booster supplements.<< Life's Abundance isn't bad, but too expensive and imho, way too high protein. And not one iota of proof their NuVet immune supplements do anything except line their pockets.

    I don't see much basenji in him (the ears don't look right somehow) - chihuahua or dachshund maybe and yeah some kind of terrier. Nice though.

    Why can't the teens help out? Seems like good responsible character building. Sigh. Good luck on finding him a home.

    @lvoss: This is not true Eldorado's Bejeweled was last CERF'd July 2008, that test is valid for 12 months so she would not be expected to be tested again until July 2009. http://www.offa.org/display.html?appnum=1210648#animal Eldorado's Barcelona was last CERF'd June 2007, so is due to be retested but has been tested multiple years. http://www.offa.org/display.html?appnum=1057756#animal Eldorado's Hocus Pocus was last CERF'd June 2007, so is due to be retested though she was tested last at 9 years of age so at least you have some idea of how her eyes aged. http://www.offa.org/display.html?appnum=1057755#animal Eldorado's Bejeweled is my girl Ruby and I was present at her CERF. Eldorado's Barcelona (my girl Ruby's mom) crossed to the rainbow bridge last fall. I believe she was 11 years old.
