  • Late in the workday today, when my work was done and I had some time to kill I put 'Basenji' into the search box. 700,000+ entries. OK, so I just start looking at them, page after page. Mostly what you'd expect, definitions, traits, breeders, ads, etc. A couple of things caught my eye. A book called 'The Basenji Revelation' by Simon Cleveland, and a computer program called 'Basenji'. Has anyone heard of either of these and/or have any comments on them?

    BTW: I continued the perusal when I got home but still only got through about 650 of them. Interesting stuff though on some of the links. Just goes to show, sometimes the first page on any search engine does not always tell the the tale. example: I was 5 pages in B4 this forum came up.:) And then only as a link from another place as to "traits".

    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.

    @kembe - Very True Kembe, here is a link on looking for a responsible breeder. https://bconc.org/finding-breeders-red-flags There are many scammers out there, don't fall for one.. or a person that is not a responsible breeder.
