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 think Tanza is spot on. Not sure where you are, but the Basenji Nationals are in Tucson in November. Assuming it's possible, I can't think of a better way to find a good breeder than to attend.
Glad things are settling down for you. Now is a great time to get on breeders puppy lists. Go to the Basenji Club and contact breeders in states close enough for traveling to. If you're interested in a bit older, be sure to ask if they have any or know of another breeder who may have gotten a puppy back that didn't work out. Good luck in your search.
Yes, I am considering :) I already filled out the forms for basenjirescue.org
After talking with my family, we're willing to take a rescue pup from from last winter, hopefully I'l get a reply soon.
