I have a brindle named dexter that I plan on breeding someday. and around christmas I\'ll be looking for a female Basenji, and I would prefer a Pure white Female. Please contact me if you know where to find one or how i can find one myself. At Morpheus3612@yahoo.com. Also, I\'ll be studding him out as well and he\'s a purebred from a champion sire. Thank you.

I want to mate my 5-mo. old red/white AKC male this year. He weighs 15 lbs, is about 16" tall, and will be a little bigger by the time of breeding. I am looking for a smiliar female in Florida, one that is also red/white or white AKC. I am NOT a breeder. Please contact me at cappy.1225@yahoo.com. Thank you.

Is anybody out there?? Does anyone use this site?

WOULD ANYONE HAVE ANY INFO ON WHAT TO DO ABOUT A DOG THAT BITS? MY BASENJI IS A YR. OLD AND WITHIN THE LAST FEW MONTHS, YOU CAN'T GO NEAR HIM WHEN HE'S SLEEPING OR HE WILL JUMP UP AND BITE.THE OTHER DAY HE GOT MY 15 YR OLD SON IN THE FACE AND HE NEEDED STITCHES. NOW YOU CAN'T EVEN CORRECT SENJIE OR HE ATTACKS. WHAT DO I DO. I LOVE THIS DOG BUT I CAN'T HAVE HIM DOING THIS. IF ANYONE HAS ANY TIPS, PLEASE GET BACK TO ME AT M13LISA@AOL.COM. HE'S NOT LIKE THIS ALL THE TIME, MOST OF THE TIME HE IS A SWEET ANGEL. I NEVER HAD ANY OTHER PROBLEMS WITH HIM...WHY WOULD HE START THIS OUT OF THE BLUE.WE DO HAVE 2 OTHER DOGS, AND THEY DON'T BITE????? I JUST DON'T UNDERSTAND. I DIDN'T THINK BASENJI'S WERE MEAN!

I adopted a dog a while back but never knew what type she was. Since a number of people have commented that she looks like a Basenji, but when I look around the internet about the breed everything fits except two things: color and size. She is white with a blonde streak down her entire back and tail, and she is abuot 35 pounds. Other than those two things she fits the description well: no barking, loves to sleep but ver energetic once outdoors, short haired, cleans herself like a cat, etc.. Anyone have any opinions?

I am 17 and me and my boyfriend are in search for 2 hybrid wolf puppies a male and a female around the age of 4-8 weeks. Are willing to pay. I am looking for certain colors in the dog so if anyone knows anyone that owns some that they are selling or giving away please e-mail me with information and pictures at sugar_muffin16@excite.com. Thank you and I hope to hear alot of replies soon.

Hi, we have a 8 month old brindle male, and he gets into everything. That in itself isnt the problem, we knew that basenjis do that. However, when he gets into everything, he gets sick. If he eats a small piece of paper, then a little while later he throws up. And up with it comes the food the most recently ate. The only things that he seems to be able to eat w/o getting sick are food items, like grapes, carrots, apples, etc. I know many other people that have their basenjis get into everything and eat it, such as toilet paper, etc. But theirs dont seem to get sick as our little boy does. The vet cant seem to find anything wrong, and we were just wondering if anyone else out there has had similar problems. Other than this, he is very healthly and basenji like. HAHAHA

Thank you in advance, Rosina

HELLO,

MY NAME IS ABI. I WAS WOUNDERING IF ANYONE OUT THERE KNEW ANYTHING ABOUT THE AMERICAN BARKLESS DOGS.

DISCIPLINE IS LOVE FOR THE GOOD OF YOUR DOG, YOU MUST UNDERSTAND THAT DISCIPLINE AND LOVE GO HAND IN HAND. IT IS EASIER BY FAR TO PAMPER YOUR PET THAN TO CONSTANTLY STRIVE TO TEACH HIM RESPECT. BUT PUPPIES LIKE BABIES ALL HAVE TO GROW UP TO DEAL WITH THE WORLD AS DOGS NOT AS PUPS. SO GREATER THAN LOVE IS THE GIFT YOU CAN GIVE BY TEACHING YOUR DOG THE RIGHT WAY TO LIVE.

WE ARE HAVING A PROBLEM WITH OUR BASENJI. HE IS VERY PROTECTIVE, AND GROWLES AT ANY STRANGER COMING INTO OUR YARD AND IF HE IS NOT ON A LEASH WILL TRY TO BITE!!!! CAN ANYONE HELP!!!

HELLO,

MY NAME IS ABI. MY E-MAIL IS flanahan2@hotmail.com. I AM INTERESTED IN A BASENJI PUPPY AROUND SEVEN WEEKS OLD. I DONT REALLY CARE WHAT COLOR. I AM JUST LOOKING FOR A PET AND COMPANION.

Anyone planning on litters this year.

Weve just come into possession of a 3-4 yr old full blooded female Basenji that we are not able to keep. We live in a one bedroom condo in the San Francisco area and already have one Basenji. Looking for a loving home to take care of Nala. She is very sweet, red and white with tawny colored eyes, and has not been fixed yet. Willing to give her away to the right person/family. Please respond to Fiocchi11@aol.com

Thinking about buying a Basenji? The Basenji is a beautiful and elegant breed of dog but did you know that the Basenji has many breed-related characteristics that are difficult, if not impossible, for most people to live with? Please research this bred very carefully *before* you even consider bringing one into your home. Check out http://www.geocities.com/yodeldogs/whatis.html to learn more about this wonderful breed.

Once you have determined that the Basenji would be a good addition to your household, how do you find one? It isnt as hard as you may think to find a responsible breeder. Just check out http://www.geocities.com/yodeldogs/wheretoget.html

Or perhaps you would consider adopting a homeless adult Basenji? The best place to look for one is http://www.basenjirescue.org

I know that i have a Basenji, but everytime I look at photos of other Basenjis they are all big. My female is almost a year old, and she is full grown. She only weighs about 15lbs. She is very very small. Are their different types of Basenjis out there?

If anyone is expecting pups soon, can you please email me with the price, color, and possible picture of the pups if they are already born. Thanks.

Hi, I am moving to the Tampa Area in MAy and will be looking for a Basenji puppy after we get settled in. Preferably around July or August.

Hi :) We just got a new 3 month old puppy and he howls like there is no tomorrow. Anytime he needs to be left alone (even if to just take a shower) he begins to howl! Even at night he does this right before going to bed (ended up sleeping on the floor to quite him)!

Anyone know why? Do Basenjis howl when they are just lonely, or is it a phase that he will grow out of? Please, anyone that has had this problem and knows how to help alleviate it...Ill take any and all suggestions. Thanks!

I have a Basenji (red) and he is 5 years old. This last year he has developed what looks like a pimple and then it turns black

He has them all over different parts of his body. Our vet has no idea what they are. You cant squeeze them

because nothing comes out if you do. Since there hair is so short you can really see them good. Can anybody help me out?

Or has anybody seen them before on a Basenji? Other wise he seems very healthy.

Just got a new Basenji Femal Puppy yesterday. Her name is Miss Ruby. I need all of the suggestions I can get on raising this little girl. Potty training...that is the most important thing to me. We do crate her at night and at nap times. How do I get her not to have to go in the middle of the night? Will she yodle when she needs to go?

Help, want to make it easy for both of us.

Looking for female puppy. Have been a basenji owner since 91.

Please E-mail HDANDB1291@aol.com about 2yr. old.

Has anyone tried clicker training with basenjis? We heard that it works really well, but would like to talk to others who have tried it. Our pup is 12 weeks old, and we need to start training.

thanks

I have a one year old black and white Basenji who is flaking and shedding a lot. I have tried changing her food and have tried using things like Linatone. She is still flaking and shedding a lot. Can anyone give me any suggestions on what I can do to make her coat healthier so that she doesnt flake or shed as much?

Im looking for a female Basenji pup within reasonable traveling distance to/from Colorado. Please email me or call 970-250-1782 with coloring, location and price. SuppesMK@aol.com

Is a Basenji right for you? If you have ever heard of a basenji Ill bet that youve heard that they are barkless and do not shed. Sounds just like what you are looking for, doesnt it? But before you go searching for that "perfect dog" let me share some Basenji traits with you. If you are looking for a companion that will walk quietly with you in a heal position or come immediately when called then a Basenji is probably not the dog for you. The Basenji is a natural breed of dog and has survived in nature for hundreds of years on their wits. They will not readily bend to the whims of man. This does not mean that a Basenji cannot be trained, only that you have to understand the reasons that a Basenji behaves the way it does. Basenjis are extremely intelligent animals and will probably train the owner rather than the owner training the Basenji. Yes you have already heard that a Basenji is barkless which is somewhat true. But "barkless" does NOT mean MUTE! Basenjis can make a variety of n

YES OUR BASENJI WAGS HIS TAIL WHEN HE IS HAPPY AND GLAD TO SEE US COME HOME!!!!
