Ask the breeder how big the sire and dam are. That's a good idea. My first basenji, who was a champion, weighed nearly 26 pounds when she matured. My 2nd one would have been about that, but thanks to steroids, we did good to keep her at 30. My current rescue is a giant. We won't go there. I first dreamed of a SMALL dog, maybe 15 pounds tops after years of being a BIG DOG person (rottweilers and chows). I don't see that ever happening.

Well, depends on how you look at it, here in the house to raise all the time?.. about 10yrs since I whelped a litter here. But I have co-bred a couple of litters and also have a couple that I co-own or have shown for friends.

Great looking basenjis - just love the cuddling, which I seemed to notice a lot at the Seattle dog show. Can someone tell me if basenjis tend to cuddle together more than other dogs? I've just seen so many pictures of them doing this.

Depends on the dogs, depends on the temperament, and the age… some do, some don't... remember with Basenjis... they do not read the books!

I agree with Pat, it really all depends. Rally seems to have some bizarre rulebook that she expects all the others in the house to understand even though the rules are about as complex as dragon poker, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dragon_Poker, which I suppose makes sense since she was born in the year of the Dragon.
My others are less picky but all seem to prefer cuddling with a human if they can get a space.
