Real Breeder

Basenji Talk
  • @tanza thank you. Have been recieving email, texts, phone calls from a supposed breeder in southern CA that had red flags once he asked for down pymnt even though I kept asking about the pup. It's a new site called, Debora Basenji Puppy Home. So frustrated. Lost my girl a year ago. She was my SD.

  • @kdpnut - The clue is that this site was just put up in 2022... This in my opinion is a scam. Unless they give you the names of the sire/dam of these pups... and you can verify their health testing... DON'T DO IT! Here is a link for finding a responsible breeder. So sorry about your loss... there are so many scams out there... sorry to say. https://bconc.org/finding-breeders-red-flags
    While there are people that say that the prices of a well bred pup is "over priced" is NOT true, responsible breeders breed to improve the breed and many, many responsible breeders do NOT charge more for show or pet... In the end with responsible breeders the home is the most important. If they want a show puppy, they keep it...period. Their prices are a scam for sure... and I am guessing if you asked for proof of DNA testing for Fanconi/PRA you will get NO response...

  • @sakuhn62 - Have to respond that I breed well bred, healthy Basenji puppies. Prices are NO different for pet or show... in fact it is not that often that I have placed puppies in show homes... if I want to show, I keep that puppy. For a well bred puppy it MAKES no difference if show quality or not... price is the same. You are paying for a life time commitment and you are now part of the breeders family. The contract says if you have to give up that pup... the breeder takes that pup, no questions asked... real breeders care for the puppies that they raise and place. The price is only the beginning... care from the pup is life time.. to get a pup that is NOT health tested and not of good temperament is a life time of lots of money spent... more than the normal care that is needed. Don't fool yourself..

  • @kdpnut
    Definitely research a legitimate responsible breeder. It will save you a lot of heartache and unnecessary expenses. Prices for a purebred may seem high from a responsible breeder but many times they are just breaking even after health testing, veterinarian visits, medication, licenses, food, etc. Breeders just want their pups to be placed into loving responsible homes!

    Unbelievable! Makes me so angry that people would take advantage of others and to do it @ the expense of an innocent basenji! So sad!

  • @jengosmonkey
    LOL! Comical but sad that there are sites like that out there! Hopefully people do their homework and don’t fall for such BS.

  • @jengosmonkey LOL.... that is what is happening... and people fall for it... don't do it... too many scam sites... and the pups you are seeing are pup's pictures that are stolen from other sites... these are not real... the posts that I have made and insisted that I would not be interested unless they supplied sire/dam names and the conversation has gone "dark"... and they have not and I am sure will not supply the information I have requested... DO NOT send money, do NOT believe their information.. these are scams... period

    @ashleyalanej Oh, that's awful. I took my pups to meet my vet a few weeks ago. She was telling me that she's seen a rise in Parvo this year as well. Scary stuff.

    you got me searching through some old crufts catalogues for the 1950s, and the Andersons were just about the only scottish based exhibitors - could she perhaps just have had dogs from them? The seemed to have moved about quite a bit in the 50s thru north England/Scotland, and back in those days the bred prolifically so there would be lots of basenjis out there.. Will be really interesing to find out who she is and who the dogs were - keep us informed!

    I sent the earlier version of this book home with my puppies last year. I think it is a good addition to a new puppy owner's library.

    I know that picture of Bing well - it hangs in pride of place in the hall. I can only guess how you came by it as I would think his breeder would have been the only person we gave a copy to! Thanks for the info re Fanconi. We will obviously keep that very much in mind.
