I cannot imagine committing to buy a puppy without seeing the animal and if possible the sire and dam. OTOH, a rescue (or adoption of an older dog) is a different thing. My last two Basenjis came to me sight unseen, and turned out to be wonderful dogs, but the breeders I got them from wanted to place their dogs in an experienced Basenji home, and I only paid the cost of getting the dogs to me. One came by air, one was personally transported to me by his breeder. If she hadn't been happy with what she found I expect she would have taken him back with her when she left. I also had to commit to return him if ever I couldn't keep him. Good breeders care about where their dogs end up.

idk if any of you saw it.. but a man had his basenji with him in the tattoo shop.. and it had a white diamond on its back.. and he got one of the same shape in the middle of his back too..
corny idea for a tattoo, but there was a basenji on tv none the less
-
I have it recorded, so I will have to check it out. I am totally in love with her cat! I thought they were so ugly at first, but now I am hooked and I want one!
-
Yup! I saw it..how cool. His B looked so cool.
How cute, the way he stood @ the window on alert! Such a smart boy to pick the right owner for him!
-
Yeah that's Chad and his basenji Tyler:D
I met him through the basenji meet up at the dog park down here and was so excited when he let me know he was going to be on TV! I cant wait to see the show.
-
Fun! That is some serious devotion to your dog!
-
definately devoted! ..
& thats really cool that you know him too! maybe you'll get to check it out in person!
my boyfriend joked he was going to get a stripe down his forehead like rocky! :p
and he behaved so well! letting pixie walk him around.. definately well trained!
-
oh and the cat didn't like him at all !! lol
-

Hey V–I found out about the show airing at the very last minute. If you miss it I'll post it online eventually.
-
I think its awsome that you decided to tat that on your back.
A paw print would be really cool.
Glad to have you on the forum. Sorry I missed the episode. Hopefully they will play it again. -
Hey V–I found out about the show airing at the very last minute. I think it will run again next Tuesday at 9. If you miss it I'll post it online eventually.
Way cool! I was hoping to see the now infamous basenji. What a tribute to your boy Tyler. I just love the bottom picture of you two - great shot! Your tatoo is as unique as Tyler. Thanks for posting and welcome to the B Forums. I will make a point of tuning in to the next LA Ink show. A Basenji on TV is a rare sighting.

what a neat patch on the B's back
-
Can you post a pic of your back, and his?
-

Very Cool, welcome Chad and Tyler, I'll have to keep an eye out for the show now that I'm temporarily in the states.
I think that's a great idea for a tat, coming from someone who has a few (or 15 smirk).
I love the pic of you and him with your backs facing the camera
-
Welcome to the forums! From watching the show, Tyler seems like a great dog, and he is so handsome! I personally love the tattoo. It is very original, and I think it is great that you feel so connected with your dog.

Oh, somehow I missed that one the first time thru the thread. Who bred your B? He is very cute. Quite an unusual marking too!
I think your idea is pretty cool!Tyler is a Congaro basenji from here in Southern California. His papa was best in breed at Westminster a couple years ago. I guess that makes him pretty fancy, but he just likes hanging out and having fun.
I really want to find a lure coursing group near Los Angeles, but the nearest ones are in San Diego (hours away).
