    Thanks for the warm welcome! I got ahold of the Wash DC basenji club and they do get2gethers at a local dog park every weekend. Turns out the ring leader is also the local contact for BRAT! We plan on taking our two "kids" down this weekend and join the party.

    Thanks for the replies. I have emailed the local contact in MD a week ago but have not received any response to date. We went to a dog show up in Howard Co yesturday and saw 9-10 Bs in the show but we did not wish to disturb the owners/handlers while they were "working". we got pulled way for a while and when we came back all the Basenjis were gone and we never could find any in the maze of RVs and show rigs.
    We are open to rescue dogs, both of our "kids" were rescues.
    When we first went on the road we had the 100 lb Airedale(He's not fat just big!) the 60 lb Lab and Duke, the 130 lb sweetest Husky/Malamute anybody ever met. Sadly we had to put Duke down on our way back from Alaska, fall of 2006, but he got to see reindeer and musk ox and "fish" for salmon before he passed. Cheryl and I normally don't go for the smaller dogs but the Basenji seems like a big dog in a little dog body. I appriciate a dog with a mind, not a little nuerrotic mass of hair.

    Good Morning to All!! My wife Cheryl and I have been bitten by the Basenji bug!
    I remember living next to one 30 yrs ago and have always wanted to know more about them. Cheryl has never been around them before.
    We are full time RV'ers and travel around the country with our two dogs. We are currently owned by (1) 11 yr old Airedale and (1) 12 yr old Lab cross. Sadly, we know that our babies will be leaving us eventually and this has caused us to look at the Basenji as a possible next dog. Our lifestyle allows us lots of time with our dogs and twice a day walks are the norm. When out west we often "boondock" away from everything where the dogs have a opportunity to run and explore. We are currently in the Washington DC area and would really like to meet some owners and spend some time with these intriguing dogs.
    Thanks you for the opportunity to participate in the forums.
