You can help allergic reaction with most breeds by simply grooming regularly and wiping down with even something like baby wipes. But no dog is hypoallergenic.If your allergies are mild you can do what many of us do, just take antihistamines. 🙂 If severe, sadly you should not count on a basenji to no set them off. Some nonshedding dogs do better, but they also have dander and saliva, so they also are NOT hypoallergenic.

Glad you posted to the forum.Hi Sharron,
I got Triton from a breeder in New Mexico. This breeder is apparently big in the dog show community. Any relations? -
Thanks Kipawa,
I'll post some as soon as I figure out this forum structure and how to do it! -
Thanks for the welcome. I'm glad to hear it will get better. Right now he's skittish and scared of just about everything. Definitely more socialization is in order, I look forward to seeing fun playful behavior like I see on some of those youtube vids!

Hi Sharron,
I got Triton from a breeder in New Mexico. This breeder is apparently big in the dog show community. Any relations?Probably - there are several nice breeders in NM. If you let us know your pup's registered name, we'll know who's related to who.
