Welcome to the group! I think it is a great idea to visit a breeder of Basenjis with your son. I hope he will be OK with a Basenji and his allergies don't act up because you all will have such fun with a Basenji. They are smart and sassy and funny and so loving and loyal. If you don't have your heart set on a puppy since very few are available now, you might register with Basenji Rescue and Transport to see if they have an older dog for you. My Basenjis have all been rescues and while each was different, each was the light of my life.

Just want to say Hi!!
Call me crazy but I just added 2 new/rescued adult girl b'dogs to the two I rescued 10 years ago. So far so good considering everyone was a bit freaked out from the long 8 hour drive from Florida to Georgia. Everyone is settling in and getting the hang of the new house, stairs etc.
As with any new rescue it takes time to build trust from the dogs end. My new girls are taking treats from my hands and not the fingers lol. Everything takes time so far so good.
Peace and love - and lots of belly rubs to all.
