Welcom to the forum and congratulations,, your b sounds wonderful and no, you are not the only one that feels guilty for leaving them. Think about it.. you got a basenji… you are already kind of crazy!! 🙂 Ayo is 2 1/2 years old now, and I still hate leaving him. I have only slept away from him one night in the whole 2/ 1/2 years. I know I will have to leave him more often in the future , luckily I already have a perfect place to leave him which worked perfectly that one time. Its a friend who loves dogs, she breeds yorkies and shows many breeds, Ayo loved it at her place. he stayed perfectly calm in his crate, no anxiety whatsoever. I was so relieved. Its good to find a person like that so that hey get used to them, and that way you know that they will be happy when you have to leave them...not everyone can handle a basenji, its hard to find people who can properly "babysit" while you are away. .....

Hello All,
I am very new to the Forum and very new to Basenjis. I've lived with dogs all my life and with Welsh Corgis for the past 12 years. When my beloved 12 year old Corgi, Neika, died suddenly last summer my 4 year old Corgi and I started looking for another Corgi puppy. Instead 5 weeks ago we met Glory. She was a puppy mill survivor - about 7 weeks old. The wonderful folks who initially rescued Glory thought she was a Corgi mix. I even believed that for a couple of hours. But no she is a wonderful Basenji puppy. I don't know much about Basenjis but I have been doing a lot of research and learning. I hope that my connection with the Basenji forums will help me learn how to be the best Mom I can be to Glory.
