Walking is weather dependent. When I lived in North Bay there were days that a walk was simply not possible, due to cold or storms. I had Lady for seven years before I got Tamu for company, and she did fine on her own. She got lots of attention from me, walks when we could, and I taught her a lot of behaviours. She enjoyed the run of the house and seldom got into any trouble beyond ripping up tissues if she could find them. Of course, she had her moments, like when she raced into the living room where we were entertaining guests, and deposited a used tampon for everyone to admire!
Looking for a 4-6 yo Basenji

Hi,
I live in Boise and have lived with? tormented by? Basenjis for about 30 years. I am currently looking to adopt another Basenji about 2 to 6 years old.
My current Basenji is a 6 year old sterile male. Some time ago our pack mate had a stroke and died. She was about 14. We are both keen on adopting another pack member.

@shankara - Best to try and contact breeders and see if they have any adults they are looking to place. You can find breeders by state at www.basenji.org

Contact your local Kennel Club(s) as well. They can tell you if there is any club members in your area that breeds and/or shows Basenjis. That's how I found my girl!
p.s. sorry to hear of your loss...

Here is a direct link to the BCOA breeder directory. If none of the nearby breeders lists are able to help you, contact the Breeder Liaison for help. [email removed] Denise keeps a list of breeders that do not want their kennels openly advertised.

I think the nearest breed club to you is in Washington. The Evergreen Basenji Club, http://www.evergreenbasenjiclub.org/
