Hello Marian,
Welcome. What a happy home it must be.
We are Kees-Jan and Anne-Marie from Marken, north of Amsterdam. Where do you live? Maybe we can walk together some time? Also check http://www.basenji-club.nl/ for basenji walks.
We have two daughters from Abotere Khamau, Lela and Binti (2,5 and 3,5 years old) - our first dogs, and we recognize a lot that you wrote.
People warned us about getting a basenji, but we have not been happier since they took over our house and hearts. Lela came with us as a pup (enought to keep you busy) and Binti joined half a year later - it took her around 1,5 years to really settle.
Here's a picture with their big mama friend Kiko the Akita https://picasaweb.google.com/lh/photo/dNOYjJPSlhUGbZK3LZxvbwxZLf3J_PvRjNp46MdVlt4?feat=directlink
We hope to meet all of you soon.

Hi everybody,
My name is Gag, glad to meet you all. Pi (Ï€) is my first B. He was born on 25th Dec, 2013. I've got him on 30th Mar, 2014. He is very smart, curious and obdurate. I try to teach and train him everyday some time work but some time not.^^Any advice?

Welcome to our community!

what a cutie! and welcome to the wonderful world of basenji ownership.
Basenjis are clever little dogs that work best with gentle training techniques. A heavy hand can destroy his trust in you. I suggest you look for books or websites by Patricia McConnell, Sophia Yin, Karen Pryor, Leslie McDivett, Ian Dunbar.
