All pups have been placed as responsible breeders have reservation lists. We are not at this time planning a litter for 2020 or 2021. I would be happy to talk to you about Basenjis. You can search for responsible breeders at www.basenji.org by state, however as far as I know all responsible breeders on the West Coast already have full reservation lists. You would be looking at litters possible in 2021. This is the time to connect with a responsible breeder and get on their reservation lists for 2021. And if you are looking for a dog that is hypoallergenic, Basenjis do shed and have dander so they are not really hypoallergenic. While they can do well with people with allergies, you need to spend time with them and more than one time. Be sure that you check out health testing yourself, regardless of what you might be advised. Tests for DNA testing is public knowledge at www.ofa.org. You need to have either a registration number or name to check this out for yourself to verify. I suggest all people looking for a Basenji, even my own, do this.

If you post me privately, I can at least send you the addresses of the Breed Club secretaries but right now is NOT a good time to start looking for a Basenji unless you are dedicated enough, have done piles of research and manage to get onto a Breeder's waiting list for next year's crop.
This winter's puppies (as your research already will have shown you, Basenjis are once a year girls) are on the ground and starting to leave the nest - having been reserved months ago. Mating and whelping will start again in September 2021 in 99% of cases, pups being ready to be rehomed in February / March 2022.
We are just hoping there won't be too many opportunists breeding untested (for at least Fanconi and PRA) dogs.

cast your hunt wide - like all over the world. I lived in Hawaii and got mine from N.Z. Cost was $2,000. Most airfare.
