Wanted: Red/White Basenji within ~300 miles of Minnesota

Basenjis For Sale or Wanted
  • Wanted: Red/White Basenji under 3yrs old within ~600 miles (10hrs) of Minnesota

    My girlfriend and I have researched the Basenji breed and feel it would be a perfect addition to our home. We are looking for a young Basenji, preferably housebroken, and must not be a mixed bread as we have allergies in our home.

    Please help us find our new companion to love. :)

    Thank you!

    -Curt and Corinne

  • Have you checked out BRAT or BCOSW? And not always possible to define the distance when you are considering a pup or adult… you need to look at what is the best fit for your family and lifestyle.

  • ..thought I'd mention that even though basenjis have gotten known to be a hypo allergenic dog breed, that might not be true, some allergic people still have problems with them..Best thing would be to see if you may actually meet some basenjis and see how it goes..not one but several visits might be necessary for you to know for sure..
    Good luck in your search..I would recommend BRAT and also of course the site Tanza mentioned so you can find responsible breeders in your area..

  • Thank you so much for your advice. We just e-mailed a member of the bcosw. :)

    basenjimamma, Thank you for that :) We had thought of that, as we have researched quite a bit, and are going to definitely make sure that no one is allergic before we take one home.

    A lot of people get 2 pups at once, but different litters, opposite sex. I personally prefer one at a time so they bond more with humans than each other. Getting another the next season gives time to get the first settled. Of course, then you have another round of house breaking etc. A lot depends on your own experience with the breed. Good luck ... the link Pat gave you is your best bet for well bred puppies. :)

    Where are you located? There are actually a lot of options. Sadly, as of late, not a lot of basenjis being posted to BRAT. There are other rescues, including a great rescue for basenjis in Florida and California. Also, if you can't find a suitable rescue, please consider young and adults from breeders that they have decided don't fit their breeding plan. They also need and make great pets.

    @culturalenigma: Hi all…sorry it's taken so long. I did not end up getting a Basenji - though I really really still want one. I did get a Jack Russell. As I said before, my mother breeds them and like any good breeder, when the people who bought her found out they were pregnant, they no longer wanted the puppy. So she was in need of a home and we were looking for a dog. Anyway, anyone know how a Basenji might get a long with a Jack? :cool: I know people with Jack's and Basenjis.. do just find.. but lots of energy there between the two….
