  • Just joined the forums to learn more about Basenji's. We got our dog Luna about 2 years ago as a pup from one of the local animal rescue organizations here in Columbus, Ohio. From the best that we have been able to determine she is mainly Basenji. She has pretty much all the exact characteristics of a Basenji, but she is completely yellow/gold, no white patches like all the other Basenji's I have seen. She can also bark, but also makes all of the other odd sounds that I have heard of Besenji's making. We purchased one of the breed DNA test to find out exactly what she is, but I'm sure once I post some pics you all will agree she is 90% Basenji.

  • Hello and Welcome to the forum! Can't wait to see the pics :)

  • Welcome, from another Ohioan. We are on the north side of columbus and have 1 r/w boy. We have occasionaly taken him to the Westerville dog park but his behavior has not be great lately. We have cut back. We also help BRAT transport and foster. Great to have more B's in Ohio. I see so few of them in Columbus.

    I own five basenjis. Two yodel until you have a headache and my female barks. She always did. Short clipped barks. I also researched the breed before getting my first and she is an excellent dog. My third basenji was a handful. Three years later and he has stopped his destructiveness etc. It was a hard three years. Lol. You never know with a basenji. Greatest breed. Loyal, active, funny but some require ALOT of patience.

    Mallia is the third Basenji we have the pleasure of having in the last 30 years. She is a female where as the first two were males.

    Big hugs to you for adopting an older basenji. My heart gets broken when I see the senior b's on the BRAT web page. :( So give Pippi a hug for me.

    I agree with the others that this is not a common practice among BCOA breeders. I am sorry that this happened to you and yes, you should get your deposit back.
