Hello, I am really considering buying a puppy from South America in Colombia, are any of you familiar with a breeder name Diego canas from criadero de basenji in Colombia, before I make purchase, thanks
This is not the time of year to look for a Basenji in the Northern Hemisphere, let alone in Kent ! One breeder from there is reputed to have said he had enough advance orders for 4 years after the last year's rush to buy a Basenji !
But you could (maybe) get on a waiting list for next March delivery. Email me privately (address in websites on signature block) for a list of breed club secretaries.
As I've said several times in different threads - Covid has brought out a plethora of would-be Basenji owners, not just in UK but across Europe.
We are starting to fear dogs being dumped into Rescue when lockdown is lifted and people return to work in offices , having realised there is far more to owning a Basenji than just the facts that they don't bark, are small and keep themselves clean like cats.
I have had well over 70 - probably 80 now the weekend's crop of enquiries has been dealt with per email and entered into my notes - and am at a loss to be able to tell them of a single breeder who doesn't already have a waiting list full to overflowing.
Anyone posting me privately will receive a detailed response but it won't carry too much hope for this winter.
Thank you. Someone posted before who has Bevs basebjis. I am hoping they will see this post and let me know again. In the mean time, I will try your suggestion. Thanks again!
Thanks everyone for all this information! He is a gorgeous pup (face marked like my Topper) but he is very far away. Interestingly, I have a friend who lived in Russia many years ago and had a basenji, it would be funny if I wound up with a Russian Basenji. There are so many here that need homes, though….....
