Thank you MacPac. I contacted 2 breeders in the Gainesville-Ocala area but they don't have any available at the moment. We'll keep looking.
Thank you everyone for the great suggestions

Thank you everyone for your input. We'll do our best to find the perfect match. We'll keep you posted.

We did extensive research on the breed and talked to several owners. I found several "interesting" stories online about how destructive they can be. But we think that this type of behavior is more related to ignoring them and not paying the necessary attention. Since we are looking to provide a 2nd chance to young Basenji (not a puppy that we can socialize from the beginning), we are looking for one that has not been traumatized. We are ready for occasional challenge ..believe me .. we have kids ..

Thank you Dan. I registered with BRAT will check petfinders.

Hello my family and I are looking to adopt a young basenji (not necessarily a puppy). We live close to Tampa. If you know of a young basenji that will do well with kids, it is not destructive and is looking for a nice permanent home, please let us know.
Thanks
