I just thought it might be interesting to see if those quizes took anyone to the b breed they have now..

I see. So she would probably be placed soon then. That is a good thing If not, I go up to Seattle probably once every 2 months..

thanks! I think I have found some close to me.

So are BRAT dogs only available to the particular state they are in? Also in her profile it indicates that she is:
she nips: yes
house destructive: dont know

Sounds like a great B

I know of a breeder in Riverside, but anyone knows of owners in the inland empire area in California where I might be able to pay a visit?

I see . I figured that there are already several characteristics about B that is appealing to me:

Clean
affectionate
not too loud(there are always exceptions)
catlike
easy to maintain(grooming)
not too big in size
big wrinkles on the forehead…

Does anyone know if there are online dog breed test that match up to your personality and preferences and is fairly accurate? I am in the process of considering a basenji but wanted to make sure that the breed is right for me. Apart from the many things I am learning browsing the forum, I thought it might be a good idea to try those quizes out there

Yes. It seems crate training is super important as safety to the dog. As to B escaping, I am not too worried as at my house there is a inner court yard that has another door leading up to my front door. Usually when people ring the door bell, they ring the outside bell. I though have to go through 2 doors, which is great especially if the dog escapes from one door, he is stopped at the other That portion I am pretty confident.

was just thinking about child locks as well! I guess Im starting think like a b pup. LOL. But I wonder if that laundry room is a big enough space to keep during the day?
