Robyn Dubbert is in north Georgia outside Atlanta, she may have an available basenji. She has very nice dogs! You can find her on Facebook, Sherwood Basenjis. IF you are in south Ga, Gale Whitehurst is in Thomasville Ga, also has lovely dogs. BRAT (Basenji Rescue and transport) is of course in every state and often has many more dogs than on their website . Good luck, whatever color you end up with, you will love, I promise.

@doggylover said in Hello:
would love to own a basenji.
I learned about a lot of small(er) breeds when I was getting ready to bring a new pup home. The thing that tipped the scales for me was finding out that Basenji's don't bark. What made you decide on a Basenji?

First of all, they don’t bark as you said, the ‘yodelling’ is fantastic, they have a short coat, and they’re a one owner dog that loves exercise, so I watched some videos, did some research and loved them!
-
They might not bark, but they can, it is just not a bark like many dogs. It is a single or two that sounds like a "boof".... however they make all other dog noises and then some.

@doggylover But have you ever met any ? Where are you because I welcome visitors (especially now we are allowed to meet in the woods !) to come and meet the boys and ask questions. Email me privately.
Not all of them yodel - not by any means. But silent they ain't !!!

I own five basenjis. Two yodel until you have a headache and my female barks. She always did. Short clipped barks. I also researched the breed before getting my first and she is an excellent dog. My third basenji was a handful. Three years later and he has stopped his destructiveness etc. It was a hard three years. Lol. You never know with a basenji. Greatest breed. Loyal, active, funny but some require ALOT of patience.
