  • Hello I am from southern ohio and i am interested in getting a basenji for my husband for christmas! can anyone help me?

  • Are you or have you been a dog owner before? Bella is my first dog and let me tell you… she is a challenge, but I love her dearly! Have you done much research on the breed? They are a fascinating canine with their own little (and big) quirks. Beautiful animals, elegant and proud... with a mind of their own! The Basenji is quite active and very, very curious. Do you know if you want to start with a puppy or an adult? Please keep us posted with any updates and feel free to ask as many questions as you need to...

  • We are dog owners we have done our research on the breed and we are very interested in owning one. thank you for replying and thank you for advice!

  • Good luck on finding your new little family member! :D

  • Oh, and I am from Southern WV so we are practically neighbors…:cool:

  • Please go to http://www.basenjirescue.org
    and fill out an on line ap for a rescue basenji.

    Welcome Annie. We are in Columbus. Please consider an older Basenji. You can see some great dogs on BRAT's webpage that Sharron mentioned below. Even if they aren't in Ohio they can still get them to you.

    Aggression is an all encompassing term. As pointed out above, there is quite a range! It is not unusual for Basenjis to be dog aggressive. Mine is, and I just avoid other dogs because I know his intentions are not good. Some are same sex aggressive and fine with members of the opposite sex, and some may just be making a statement when they are leashed. If you describe what you are seeing more specifically I am sure lots of people will have common experiences and possible training fixes to share. I would love to see some pictures of Tucker, and welcome to the forum!

    I look forward to your pictures. I'm a technophobe too - I keep telling myself I can do it but so far haven't posted any. One of my bitches was spoiled for the show ring by such a judge who didn't know how to approach a hound (although he was a Saluki judge and should have!). She was experienced at showing as well but was traumatised because when she backed away at his front on, silly voice approach she nearly fell from the table! Of course she blamed the fall on his approach. I worked on her intensively but to no avail. Yes, Basenjis on the whole are friendly and they never forget a friend either!

    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.
