@mshilo Wow Thank you for this! I just requested to join the group. I would like to talk to you more about what you posted (Facebook group and the European option). Would you mind if we discussing this further in a private chat?

Thanks again!

My fiance and I are getting married in June, and after a lot of research we believe that the Basenji is the perfect dog for us to begin our new life together with.

Being a resident of Maryland I have tried to use the Basenji Club of America's Breeder Directory to find breeders along the mid-Atlantic states and as far north as NY and as far south as NC.

It has recently come to my attention though that puppies only come around one time a year and only in late fall/early winter. This would be a heart-breaker for my fiance and I since it looks like we would have to wait another year essentially to welcome a new basenji puppy in our home.

Are there ever instances of puppies being born in the late summer/early fall? Any help/guidance is much appreciated.

Thanks.
