Since Buster is a rescue, I would highly suggest that you have DNA Fanconi testing done. It is a cheek swab that you do yourself. You can order the test at www.offa.org for 65.00. Money well spent for peace of mind and know your Basenji's status. Scroll down till you get to Fanconi DNA

Thanks…
lol
my boyfriend already thinks I'm crazy for wanting so many basenjis -
I'm new…I just wanted to introduce myself and such...
My name is Kayla,
I don't have a basenji, but I'm on a waiting list for one for next fall...
One of my neighbors has one and our pups play together....I cannot wait to get another one!
Thanks for Reading my post!
-KWhose waiting list are you on?
Oh, and welcome!!!:D

Welcome, lots of good help here for you to learn about our lovely dogs.

I also have a bengal, he was at first a little scared of dogs but now he loves to play and cuddle with my pup.
I'm assuming you mean a cat, not a tiger. If you get a puppy, the cat and a basenji should be fine. An adult B meeting a cat for the first time will typically give chase. Cats run from dogs, typically, and basenji's chase anything that runs away, including people.

yeah. Mia just likes to chase our cat around.
where as rocky tries to eat her. (rocky was a year old when he came here)haha and i thought tiger when i saw that but i thought, hmm.. thats not right. lol :p

My puppy had never really been around cats but he's very good with my bengal. (lol yes it's a cat not a tiger I don't think they allow tigers in lofts.)
Also I work with a trainer who trained her dog, whom she just got from a rescue who used to eat cats to sleep with her 3 cats she currently has.
It was a miracle
she's like the dog whisperer lol
I've seen her work with the most aggressive dogs and they turn out to be the sweetest pets ever! -
Bengals are very cool cats indeed.:)
Welcome to the forum, enjoy the fun and information.
