  • Hi, my name is Carrie and I have a 1.5 year old female Basenji mix named Sky who I've had is she was 8 weeks. She's a Basenji in every way, she just has scruffy hair. I love my baby even if she's the most stubborn creature I've ever met. I've already had to spend $1000s fortifying my fence to keep her from exploring the neighborhood and chasing down every rabbit and bird in sight. There's no one around here that I know who owns a Basenji, or has even heard of them. I'm looking forward to getting to know people here and sharing experiences and tips.

  • Welcome to the pack Carrie and Sky. Glad you found us. There is such a wealth of information available for you here. When you get a chance we would love to see some pictures of Sky. :)

  • Welcome to the pack – there are lots of great ideas and tips here (I've learned alot and I've had basenjis for 7 years). There is an old thread about keeping your basenji safe - you might want to search that one - and other threads about health. Anyway, when you get a chance please post some pictures - we're all addicted to basenji pictures!

    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.

    First off, Welcome to our site of valueable Basenji information. I have learned so much linking into this site, we have lots of laughs as well. My B, Sahara, crosses her legs all the time, she is such a showoff and often has the regal queen look. I love the look myself, they are such beautiful dogs I must say, not that I am partial or anything. Your Piper is so cute, welcome again.

    @WriggleysMom: We've always had rescues and I feel like I've missed out on puppy antics, so I'm debating. Toby doesn't baroo or wag his tail and I really miss being met at the door with a welcome baroo and a tail trying to wag itself off!! I had a puppy and was getting the urge for another but now we have a 7-mo old foster and I can't take my eyes off her. I remembered I really did not miss that!
