Basenji owner or breeder in Long Island, New York

Basenjis For Sale or Wanted
  • Hi, Does anyone know a Basenji Breeder or individual owner in Long Island, New York ?
    I have a gentleman wanting to purchase my last puppy, but the problem is one of his children has allergies. I would really feel better if he could take her around a Basenji to see how she will react before making a purchase and shipping the puppy.
    Any help would be appreciated !!
    God Bless,
    Dee

  • I live in Queens New York, but I can take my B to Lond Island for a visit. If you want email me here or privatly or have the potential owner e-mail me. Long Island is pretty big but if the ride is not too long I don't mind. Or they can come by us and see what a nice B house looks like. (socks in the crate with holes, kids stuffed animals now his, no nice decorations on the table tops, plants up high).

  • Thanks so much!! I have sent you a PM. Michael should be contacting you soon.
    Thanks again for your help!!
    God Bless,
    Dee

  • Check for allergies - I put together a strange packet that can help. I take a Q-tip and swab the inside of the dogs mouth, then take a fine comb and scrape on the skin - trying to get some dander up. I put both items in a paper towel, and then a baggy I tell the folks to take the packet out of the bag and put it under the allerigic persons pillow. If they wake up and don't have watery eyes or a rash or something - they should be ok.

  • Another good way is to go for a car ride with a B or 2… windows up....

    but that is a great idea, Diane.......

  • Am I the only one that absolutely loves the way they smell? from chris and tom on Cape Cod :)

  • I have to admit I love sniffing my B

    I think that a basenji puppy and a two-year-old is a recipe for disaster for many reasons. Both require and crave lots of attention, neither one can be reasoned with, both will want to play with the same toy, both can be stubborn, and the list goes. It is far too much to expect a two-year-old to understand how to get along with any puppy, especially a basenji puppy. If your heart is set on a basenji puppy, then I think you should wait until your child is at least five or six years old.Children that age understand what you are saying about the puppy and you can explain to them why you are saying it. I agree with the person who suggested getting an older basenji or how about a puppy of another breed? t one time in my life I had a basenji and a mixed breed, and they got along beautifully. You may love all the traits of this breed but I was suggest that you talk to owners and their experiences with the basenjis and young children. One cannot count on even the best breeders to give you the full story. Please don't get me wrong. I've had three basenjis and adored them all. I got the first one when my youngest daughter was seven. You don't have to wait that long but two years old is too young, imho. Good luck.

    As I've said several times in different threads - Covid has brought out a plethora of would-be Basenji owners, not just in UK but across Europe. We are starting to fear dogs being dumped into Rescue when lockdown is lifted and people return to work in offices , having realised there is far more to owning a Basenji than just the facts that they don't bark, are small and keep themselves clean like cats. I have had well over 70 - probably 80 now the weekend's crop of enquiries has been dealt with per email and entered into my notes - and am at a loss to be able to tell them of a single breeder who doesn't already have a waiting list full to overflowing. Anyone posting me privately will receive a detailed response but it won't carry too much hope for this winter.

    Where are you located? There are actually a lot of options. Sadly, as of late, not a lot of basenjis being posted to BRAT. There are other rescues, including a great rescue for basenjis in Florida and California. Also, if you can't find a suitable rescue, please consider young and adults from breeders that they have decided don't fit their breeding plan. They also need and make great pets.
