  • Hi, this is my first post of Basenji Forums. I live in Scotland and am due to collect my first Basenji puppy on 1st February. I have waited over a year for this puppy so i am really looking forward to finally having one. I already own two lovely Rhodesian Ridgebacks and have admired Basenjis for some time since they are all 'hounds'. I will be taking a lot of interest in your forum for help and advice with my new puppy.

  • Welcome! Be sure to share pics! I love Ridgebacks too! Yay Africa :)


  • Welcome and we look forward to seeing pictures of your new "baby" and hearing all about it as it settles into your home and heart.

  • Thanks for the welcome folks! I'm getting a boy puppy from a lady in Bedford, England. Zordia is the kennel. I will post some pics on as soon as i can. Our ridgebacks have really good natures and will love having a new boy around.

  • Welcome! I too have run Ridgebacks and Basenji's together. Good thing is they understand each others play because they have very similar play styles. Most RR's know how rough they can play with smaller dogs but you will still want to closely monitor for several months as your B grows so you can make sure there aren't any accidents from too rough of play.

    Best of luck to your new addition!

    Please research the health problems in Basenjis especially Fanconi Syndrome! There is a DNA cheek swab test for it and I believe it only costs $75. If your dog has not been tested and is over two years old, she needs to be strip tested for glucose in the urine monthly until you have the DNA test done and obtain the results. Untreated Fanconi Syndrome will kill a dog! Here is a webpage that explains health problems in Basenjis: https://www.basenji.org/joomla/index.php?option=com_content&view=category&layout=blog&id=155&Itemid=292 Jennifer

    Most people incorrectly use the terms dominant and dominance with regard to dogs. Here is a good blog post by Dr. Sophia Yin on the topic. http://drsophiayin.com/blog/entry/dominance_in_dogs_is_not_a_personality_trait
