Hi all,

My name is Danni and my husband and I are from Cape Town, South Africa.

We have been carefully considering getting a Basenji for about 2 years now, learning all we could about the breed, the history and the antics that they bring into their homes

Throughout our research, we have found that there are no KUSA (Kennel Union of South Africa) registered breeders for Basenji at all, and none that we have found in North, West or East Africa either.

I've joined this forum to ensure that when we do get our puppy next year, that we have a good place to ask advice, share stories and generally have a Basenji mad community to relate too!

Hi all,

After 2 years of research and finding no registered Basenji Breeders in Africa, we are considering a small limited breeding of African Basenji's, born in Africa, in order to cultivate possible new foundation lines for breeders around the world. Unfortunately, as there are no Basenji Breeders in my country, finding a mentor is difficult and any advice would be welcome.
Just to highlight, this is not a "set in stone" plan, just an idea we had to possibly help preserve or assist the breed.
Thoughts?
