I cannot imagine committing to buy a puppy without seeing the animal and if possible the sire and dam. OTOH, a rescue (or adoption of an older dog) is a different thing. My last two Basenjis came to me sight unseen, and turned out to be wonderful dogs, but the breeders I got them from wanted to place their dogs in an experienced Basenji home, and I only paid the cost of getting the dogs to me. One came by air, one was personally transported to me by his breeder. If she hadn't been happy with what she found I expect she would have taken him back with her when she left. I also had to commit to return him if ever I couldn't keep him. Good breeders care about where their dogs end up.
Podengo Puppies growing up

nice!!!!!!!
are these the GRANDE SMOOTH variety? they are so rare!Yes they are - there is a wonderful litter right now in Portugal from the breeder that I got my girl from if you are interested in something closer to home. She raises them in her home and socializes them the way we do so they are outgoing and friendly. One of my girls sisters lives in Sweden (or maybe it's Finland) I just forgot

Wow what lovely Puppies, i have never heard of this breed before. Thanks for sharing.
The smaller size is in England - was at Crufts for the first time this year. There is someone in Ireland that is interested so maybe someday they will be in your country.

They are so beautiful - I'm looking forward to the stacked pictures.

I'm starting to get pics as the pups are settled in new homes. one is of red now called Rudy with a Podengo Female called Six and the other is of Chebacca.
Unfortunately due to ecconomics and people loosing their jobs (and houses) a couple of sales/placements fell through so if you know anyone looking for bigger sighthounds - share the information.
Have a great day.

how many are left?
-
Too many
I have at least 3 more males that I would like to send off. But we'll see. -
They are sooo cute…
-
I love'em. I sure wish I could take one..but then I wouldn't be able to foster, nor could we afford one more dog right now..although I am tempted.
-
Those are great dogs! I never heard of them till I saw them on this forum. Always learning something new on this forum.

They really are beautiful puppies. You have done a great job with them that was lot of puppies to care for at one time. I do so wish I could have one but we want another Basenji at one point and I could not have it then. Makes me sad as my husband will tell you I have this fit called I want what I want when I want it. Must be why Jaycee and I get along so well we act to much a like. Ha! Ha! I am sure you will get great homes for your babies.
