I have one male basenji now. He is one yr old and I am looking for him a companion at home. I want a red/white female and have found one, but her mother is trindle and her father is red/white. She is red, white, with a little black on her face and back right now. The breeder said she will be fully red/white as she grows up, can anyone explain the coloring geneology to me please thanks!

That sounds exactly like benji…his ears stay folded back for awhile when we get home he's so excited. And he is the smartest dog I've ever been around also. He knows what alot of different words mean just by picking up on our conversations and he does quite a few tricks when he wants to as well. And he has to be with us constantly too. The breeder had named him Wyatt so you might remember his pics and I posted some also.

Banhanerzz, I visit Houston often as my girlfriends family lives there maybe we could meet up if I ever bring him up. Post pics of her! I absolutely love benji he is the smartest sweetest dog I've ever seen. What are some unique characteristics that yours has?

Here are some pics of Benji!

I didn't have him in a crate. I had him in a portable pen in another room to sleep, but he has been perfect on pottying outside so I let him sleep with me last night and he slept all night and then pottied right when I took him out this morning!

I live in Conway. And I will try and get on the photos asap

Hello everyone, I got back from Texas yesterday but haven't had a chance to get on the computer since I've been playing with Benji 24/7! He is the best puppy I have ever owned! He is so good and funny. He hasn't used the bathroom in the house yet! Everytime I take him outisde he goes on command. He loves to play and sleep ALOT. I put him in his pen for the first time last night and put him to sleep before I snuck out and then I woke up around 1 am to him crying terribly. I felt so sorry for him but didn't respond and he stopped shortly and slept til around 6 am. He didnt use the bathhroom all night, but did first thing when I took him out. He's been perfect, he even found a water leak in our garage that he heard running through the walls! I will post pics soon. I'm not very tech savvy, ha.

Kipawa I have decided to go ahead and get this puppy. I'm on my way to Houston now. If he does ever get ill then I believe I can give him better care than anyone, so I'm up for it! However I will pray he lives long and stays healthy.

Yes she said I will receive a care package that includes his AKC registration papers, sample of his food, his toy, training pads, shot records, and his eating schedule.

I completely understand your concerns and you want to stop people like this from breeding. I have decided to stay with this pup though. This woman is done breeding and is selling the sire. My pup is from the on site sire and dam and I am not showing or anything, just want a pet! The mother and father have only been tested for fanconi using strip tests and were negative for fanconi. The pup has had his up to date vacs and so forth. I know I sound irresponsible now, but I have decided to go with this. Me and the lady have a deal worked out where she will take the pup back in case of any problems and so forth. I am getting him nuetered around the age of 1, so no breeding. I hope you will understand and allow me to be a part of your basenji family!
