Welcome and congrats on your new addition! I'm no expert, but I would re-think neutering early. I would wait until the growth plates fully close and then neuter him. And I would not say that the breed is susceptible to attacking, though Basenjis can be reserved and cautious with strangers. Most are confident, loving dogs, when socialized. It's always good to keep an eye out for problems, however, and address any aggressive behaviors before they have a chance to escalate. Good luck with him!

Thank you. That's great to hear, I wonder if she is from the same litter as Einstein? He was born on Dec. 23rd. Do you show your dogs?

My girl is almost 18 months old now and yes I show her. She's an awesome dog!!

Hello everyone! We just survived our first month with our 12 week old Brindle Male named Einstein. Even with the lack of sleep we love him and he finds new ways to make us happy and crazy at the same time! I look forward to reading all of the information that I can here. He is a handful!
Welcome and congrats, its the glass half full or empyty with B's . He will settle in, I would start puppy class with someone who had some basenji experience…
Send us pics....

Fellow basenji humans,
I haven't posted for a long time, I've had foot surgery twice, and a wedding, I actually had hurt my foot walking my pack of 3 than again in the yard I fell in a fence post hole.
When I got back home with the cast my lady Belle, who is my first girl protected me from those "boys" .
We've had the boys for almost a year and Belle still tolerates them , but I get this "look" every now and than that tells me she doesn't want them around her!I'll be catching up will all the news and new pictures soon.

He is adorable, and I agree, what a great name..
