What about shipping a puppy from a reputable breeder that's listed on the BCOA Breeder Directory website.

Is it bad for the puppy to be shipped on an airplane for about 3 hours?

You guys are probably going to say, why cant you just get one from a local breeder, etc.. but I'm just curious.

money is not the issue. its just that on websites, their is a more variety of gender/color and the fact local breeders could be maxed out on their waiting lists..

but yeah, im gonna be contacting breeders around this area, when the time comes.

thank you guys for all your help.
I plan on meeting up with a local breeder and going through the whole process.

I just dunno if i can wait like 6 months tho!!!! I want a puppy sooooo bad.

ok thanks for the information.

I was planning on going local breeder as well and I guess I will be doing that.

yeah websites such as

I am thinking about purchasing a basenji in the near future, whether it be from a local breeder or online. If i happen to take the online route, how can I make sure the basenji I am getting is healthy and that the breeder is legit. What kind of information should I ask of them and what should I look for? Red flags?

Thanks.
