Go to the Basenji Club of America's web site (BCOA). To find Basenji breeders go to the Breeder Directory. Breeders are listed by state. Contact the Breeder Liaison as she keeps an additional list of breeders that do not breed often and do not want their names openly advertised. https://www.basenji.org/index.php/about-basenjis/breeder-directory

Basenji's regularly only have four to six in a litter. I have a two year wait list at this point myself. As for your border crossings, it's not usually an issue. I cross back and forth quite a bit. Just make sure you have your vacination certificates and a letter from the vet and you shouldn't have a problem. Rarely do they even ask to see their papers. I've been asked once or twice if I have them, but have only had to produce them once. Other than that, it's the old adage, if they don't ask, don't tell them. Just say you went to pick up your dog. Don't elaborate on anything. And just to add, I work at the border co-ordinating with customs.

Have you contact FoPaws Basenjis in Washington? And as Nemo said, if you consider flying, opens up lots of possibles since you can fly a puppy back in coach in a sherpa bag.
-
Are you thinking you are going to fly or drive the puppy home? If flying that opens up your options if either of these breeders waiting lists are full. And if for some reason, the litter size doesn't turn out in your favor, it's always possible that they may know another breeder who has puppies available that they could refer you to. I know I'm going to be on pin and needles waiting around to mid-December for the litter I'm hopefully getting a puppy from to be born. :rolleyes: Although if it doesn't turn out for me, I can wait another few years. I hope you don't have to!
Well, after reading this twice…... Nemo, a new puppy!!!!????

Yeah, I really like Gracie (Ch. Ankhu Promises in the Dark) and put my name on the list a while ago for whenever she was bred. Just happens to be this year, so looks like I might be getting a puppy if there are some boys in the litter.
It's a little earlier than I was planning but I figure it's better to do it now while Nemo is still relatively young (7 yrs) and active. -

Husband has never had the puppy experience and really wants to pick the puppy. We discussed adoption and decided when we get our acreage in a few years, we will adopt an older dog from BRAT.
We want to drive. We love road trips and almost always took Blaze with us, so we want to get puppy started early.
I looked at FoPaw's, but it looks like they already have their puppies. Husband wants to wait till Feb/March to pick up puppy. He just needs some more time. So we'll wait and see. -

Also, note that you will not find many breeders (responsible breeders) that will let you "pick" a puppy. Breeders get to know their potential puppy people and will place the puppy that best fits the home, as they know the temperments of the pups and what would work best in what home, at least 99% of the time. There may be times when they might have two the same and a choice might be possible, but not usual

I have met Therese Leimback (Fowpaws Basenjis) and find both her and her dogs just WONDERFUL! When it's time for me to get my basenji, I'll be going to her. She has some recently born puppies now, but our home is not ready yet. I'm not sure if these have all been spoken for.

If you are still looking for pups, feel free to get in touch with me.
I have a co-bred litter up in Drumheller, ALB.
They are red/white. Until they are a bit older, I can't tell if it will be boys or girls available… but there should be at least 1 girl and 1 boy available.
My email can be found on my website through my profile on here.
