Hello Michael
I wonder if you can own a Basenji.
We have been looking for a Basenji while, and we need help with this as well.
I was curious about your experiences.
Thank you

@elbrant Trouble is, some of these folks are in UK and over here it is NOT common for a show dog to be rehomed on finishing. Breeders tend to keep the one they are going to show, and hang on to them.
It takes a longer time to finish a dog over here than in USA - OK, it only needs three Challenge Certificates from three different judges (4 if the first three are gained as a puppy, but that is extremely rare) and entries at the 17 or so shows a year with CCs on offer for Basenjis are often much larger than yours so a dog will often take a couple of years to become a champion. So even longer.
Getting an adult dog almost presupposes someone else has given up on the dog, shouldn't have had one in the first place, or some dire family occurrence which means the Basenji needs rehoming through our wonderful rescue people.
Different countries, different customs.

Hi everybody,
Thought I'd share a picture of my boy. He is 5 months old and we love him. I was able to get mine to the UK even with Covid going on. Thank you for all your advise.

@viknkrish Congrats! Tell us his name, please.

@viknkrish
Congratulations! He definitely is a HANDSOME Tri!

@viknkrish Look at those Basenji wrinkles... on a tri! So cute. Love his mask. Wow... just stunning. Lucky you guys! May he rule your home for many many years to come.

@viknkrish so beautiful.
Mine is arriving today or tomorrow. He is on route and we are so excited.!
-
@elbrant his name is Titan
-
@enquiring_mind aww he's cute. How old is he?
-
@viknkrish thank you. He's 5.5 months.
-
@enquiring_mind hi, where did you get him from in the end?
-
@viknkrish he is lovely, and just what you were originally looking for. Where did you get him from in the end?
-
@jeanetteg he's from kennel mysterious talisman in Belarus. Ilona has been so helpful and given me and my family a wonderful pup. He's been a dream the last 24 hours.
-
@jeanetteg we got him from basenji-lucky in Kriyov. Nadiya has been very helpful in getting our puppy and helping with transport etc.
-
Did he come with all the paperwork about his health?
-
@basenji2021 are you still looking for a puppy?
-
@jeanetteg yeah he's got all his paper work, passport, microchipped and all injections too.
-
@viknkrish Please email me his name and date of birth and parents so I can include him in the database. My email addresses are in the websites listed on my signature block - and if you can, get the breeder to let me know details of his brothers and sisters ?
Thank you
