The Basenji magazine

@lvoss:

One thing to keep in mind about all of these publications is that the content is limited by what people are willing to submit. They do not have paid columnists.

That's a good point, Ivoss. I wish I knew enough about anything to write an article!

[basenjibratz]

I have several old issues. If anyone would like to have them, I'm willing to pass them along.

Just a quick note - Mantis, The Basenji is under different ownership than it was a few years ago. I think it's pretty substantially different than it was before, so it may be different now than you might expect. We do have articles on rescue in most issues. While I don't write those articles, I can pass along any requests you might have to the people who do.

Gbroxon, if you're interested in seeing articles on a particular subject, just let Toni or I know what you want to see. Our goal is to have articles in every issue that appeal to everyone, not just people who show, and in fact one part of putting together an issue is going through and trying to make sure that there is a balance of articles that appeal to our various categories of readers. We hope that articles on topics like new African importations, Basenji rescue, Basenji health, hunting with Basenjis, Basenji trivia (such as the Basenji brand wine we featured last issue), canine legislation, and so on will appeal to everyone who loves Basenjis.

We also provide free obituaries to memorialize deceased Basenjis, and a free online listing for owners or breeders trying to rehome dogs (Golden Opportunity Dogs.)

The ads help pay for the magazine, and their content is whatever the advertiser wants to feature.

If anyone wants a free sample copy (one per customer), especially if you haven't seen the magazine since we took it over, you can go to www.thebasenji.com and request one.

Just wondering if we can get it sent up to Canada? Anyone know??

[Itzyu]

Yes - you can get a free sample sent to Canada or anywhere else, and you can get a subscription in Canada or anywhere else. The rates are slightly higher for non-US, to cover the extra postage, but still very affordable.

Becoming a member of BCOA is the best way to keep up to speed…. not to say that The Basenji is not a good publication... because it is...

[Mantis]

thanks, I will check it out….

[youngandtired]

I went to the site, how do you ask for a free copy, I have never seen the magazine and I am very interested. I see on the site that you can only apply for a subscription.

[Itzyu]

If you would like a sample copy, just send an email and ask for one. One per customer, please. Include your full name and mailing address. I will add a link to the web site, but in the interim, lisa@thebasenji.com works.
