Hello Marian,
Welcome. What a happy home it must be.
We are Kees-Jan and Anne-Marie from Marken, north of Amsterdam. Where do you live? Maybe we can walk together some time? Also check http://www.basenji-club.nl/ for basenji walks.
We have two daughters from Abotere Khamau, Lela and Binti (2,5 and 3,5 years old) - our first dogs, and we recognize a lot that you wrote.
People warned us about getting a basenji, but we have not been happier since they took over our house and hearts. Lela came with us as a pup (enought to keep you busy) and Binti joined half a year later - it took her around 1,5 years to really settle.
Here's a picture with their big mama friend Kiko the Akita https://picasaweb.google.com/lh/photo/dNOYjJPSlhUGbZK3LZxvbwxZLf3J_PvRjNp46MdVlt4?feat=directlink
We hope to meet all of you soon.

Hello,
I don't actually own a Basenji but am looking to get one at the end of the year but have joined this forum to do as much learning and hearing about personal experiences as I can.
I currently own a small cross breed dog Charlie who is just over a year old and Freja a German Shepherd dog who is 8 months old.Looking forward to chatting with you all,
Erin

Welcome… you will find lots of information here... Have you talked to any breeders yet?

Not yet. I'm moving house and town in the next few months and once all that is sorted I will make contact.
I already have chosen the one I would love to get a pup of though

That is great, who are you think about getting a pup from?… you would be surprised how "close" knit the Basenji community of breeders is... regardless of were in the world they live... we all know or know of each other...

I would love a pup from "Tamsala" Basenji's
