Thank you to all with your suggestions. PS: My step-father is improving everyday, thank you.

If you will look under this heading at yodeldogs, you will find someone with four red and white pups and two adult basenjis that are available in the Atlanta area. These are beautifull Basenjis. I recently adopted an adult female from her and we are thrilled with her. I know it is a long trip, but believe me, it is worth it. jerry d.

@DebraDownSouth: Still don't know why Debbi is really Terri, but at least I have the dogs sorted. Long story, but all with good reason :-) Teri is a good person and treats her dogs like kings. She does good by them and those pups deserve good homes… sooner than later we hope!

Big long "sighhhh". :( These dogs need to get into the BRAT system. Is anyone available to go and personally speak to who has the dogs now?

Oh, Debra, I am old and tired..so, course, I didn't remember that! Giggle. Thanks for telling…at least no one else noticed...oh, wait...laugh!!!

I wihs you best of luck too..don't know of any at the top of my head..but Denmark has a lot of basenjifolks..should you need a confidant..Norway and Finland..even Poland or Gemany might be good options..

Hi Mike, I just sent you an email :). Patty

Did you ever have any luck finding a breeder near Mississippi?

Everyone needs to be careful not to get taken in by Topdog Kennels. She has over 100 dogs of more than one breed. She does alot of false advertising and will sell pups under false pretences. I have had personal experience with them as well and want to warn all whom have dogs of any breed do not buy or sell Tammi Winkley or her family a dog. :( She has several kennel names such as Topdog Bloodhounds,Winkley Black n Tans, Redfern Redbones, and the one for Basenjis. Pass this on.

Thanks everyone for all this information! He is a gorgeous pup (face marked like my Topper) but he is very far away. Interestingly, I have a friend who lived in Russia many years ago and had a basenji, it would be funny if I wound up with a Russian Basenji. There are so many here that need homes, though….....

I do have a couple who have expressed interest in adopting both boys together but I would be happy to talk to you also. Email me and tell me a bit about yourself and family and we can chat from there. :)

I know Sherry has 3 boys without homes yet, I think the other two girls are spoken for though.

Sanda, Have you asked the breeder/breeders of the dogs you started with for recommendations? A breeder usually knows what would cross well with your animal and should be able to help you make a stud selection.

Lauren, I would contact Robyn/Yodel Dogs, to see if there is a match there? I don't think Robyn is willing to ship her dogs, and I totally understand why, but perhaps you know of a solution? The other thought would be the Wimauma pack, perhaps contacting Pam Hamilton directly? Sometimes, applications get lost on servers… I wish your parents well! :)

http://www.basenjirescue.org/DOGS/default.htm Adoption fees apply, but the dog you get will have been spayed/neutered and generally utd on shots.

Well said, Patty!!! I love your stories. I always just say that Cody never read his canine instruction manual. I have never thought of his mischief as doing his chores, but yep, that seems to be exactly what he's doing :) "Hey girl, you dropped a sock. I'll just take it into the hallway so you don't trip over it. Hmm, it chews almost as nicely as my defluffed squirrel… hey, don't take it! I was just trying help you out!"

Glad you were able to crop my hand out of these photos…love the wrinkles.

Lovely girl this!

I hate people.
