Hello from Mexico!!

Member Introductions
  • Hey Basenji-lovers,

    I'm from Mexico City, and at the time I have no dogs… which is sad, I know. The first time I saw a Basenji pic I insatntly fell in love... then I did an extensive reaserch on the breed and I fell in love even more!!

    I have 22 years old and I'm an entrepreneur and stock trader (my own money). I study Business.

    Now I'm certain that the dog I want to be my friend for the next years is a Basenji. Actually, I would prefer a Tri-color male... but if the puppy is cute I wouldn't mind if he is not.

    Here comes the problem, a really big one: There are no proper breeders in Mexico, just families that decide to sell their puppies ocassionaly... but they're really hard to find. Actually... that's a good business opportunity for american and international entrepreneurs, since I know that the market would be willing to accept this breed.
    Well.... returning to the point, I joined the forum to see if any breeder is willing to ship to Mexico City.

    If you happen to be a breeder please contact me: albertovillat@hotmail.com
    Or if you know somebody that knows somebody, please copy this post and send it to him/her.

    Best regards,
    Alberto

    Pd. Sorry for my english, my grammar still sucks a little.

  • Bienvenidos! Glad to see you on the Forums. Lots of really good information here. I can guarantee your English is better than my Spanish. I'm sure you will find the right dog. Keep us posted on the hunt.

  • Welcome..Sounds like you are doing good planing for your new pup. Good luck in finding one in Mexico..are there any associations that you could contact?

  • Welcome to the forum Alberto!
    We had a girl in Quer?taro, Mexico.
    She loved her life there but met an untimely demise when killed by a pitbull :mad:
    The guy that had my girl went to college in Mexico, then came tothe US for another college degree before returning back to Mexico with one of my puppies.
    His family loved her and it was a perfect place to bask in the sun all day long!
    Feel free to visit my website, as we have a couple of puppies still available.

  • Welcome to the forum! I hope you will find the right puppy soon :)

  • Goodluck on your hunt!!!

    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.

    Since Buster is a rescue, I would highly suggest that you have DNA Fanconi testing done. It is a cheek swab that you do yourself. You can order the test at www.offa.org for 65.00. Money well spent for peace of mind and know your Basenji's status. Scroll down till you get to Fanconi DNA https://secure.offa.org/cart.html

We have cut back. We also help BRAT transport and foster. Great to have more B's in Ohio. I see so few of them in Columbus.

    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.
