Research isn't over until you've read my Put-Off and the other articles about life with a Basenji while not doing the Breed a disservice !
Details are in the signature block - and talk to Bushwacker. She takes care of temperament and quality !
I'm looking to adopt a grown B. I have a large yard and live near a park. I live in the St Louis MO area. ANyone out there who needs to surrender their dog I would be interested in discussing the adoption.
I recommend you contact BRAT, there are always a few in the Missouri area available via BRAT. I belong to the RT 66 basenji club which is in St Louis, have you met any other basenji owners to find out more about the breed? Our club is having an eagle walk in Alton on 6 March, you are welcome to join us, let me know if you would like more info.

Adoption fees apply, but the dog you get will have been spayed/neutered and generally utd on shots.
