Hi there everybody!

I am Andrea. My husband, Tim and I have been involved in basenjis for almost 8 years. We show in conformation, and we lure course. I aspire to have a dog trained enough to participate in obedience and agility, but haven't gotten there yet. We have five basenjis.

I recognize a lot of names here from the B-list and the BCOA. This looks like a great forum!

Thank you for adopting this beauty. She looks so much like my first basenji.

Make sure your new puppy and the parents have been health tested especially for Fanconi Syndrome. One of the health issues with Basenjis is low thyroid and it can cause a dog to be aggressive. The parents should be tested for that and also eye problems with a CERF exam and the DNA test for Fanconi. Basenjis need to be socialized.

I thought about trying to contact a reputable breeder about any " extra " dogs they may have should the BRAT adoption not work out for some reason . I just got an e-mail from the BRAT coordinator who said my home visit should be set up soon . So I'm really hopeful . I have a degree in Social Work ( though I haven't worked in the field for quite a few years ); so , my heart just gravitates toward rescue . I guess we'll see . We just REALLY need a basenji in our home.

@tahj1024:

I have found links the the Basenji Club of America and a list of breeders. The closest one is about 4 hours away. I do see a number with a local area code listed as a rescue resource so I think I will give him a call to see if I can see some and spend a little time with a few. I really would like to raise a puppy but I would be open to getting one that is a year or 2 if I find the right one.

Wonderful news!!!!

What beautiful dogs you have. I love the fact they are named for their colors. I have a basenji/whippet mix… talk about a sight/scent hound. She loves to run and HUNT those squirrels.
