I'm also considering a "thunder shirt". If not familiar, search it, let me know what you think. I wonder if anyone has come up with a car harness that I could slide the backseat belts through so the B could enjoy the breeze, but any quick motion would keep them safely in the car.
Anyway, trying to coordinate with some local shelters to get some B face time. I saw from previous (though dated) posts there is a good B vet in Vista California. Info please? Also, does one have to secure all their cabinets, sliding closet doors etc in their homes?
Any other tips you've learned that you would have liked to have known before your got your B? Send it to me!, praying for a pair that need a good home, Dawn

@tanza said in Future Basenji Owner in Italy:

I would suggest as a breeder that you go for a male pup in your situation

I'd always recommend a new-comer to the breed to have a boy.

Thank you for saying these wonderful things about the mature Bs. My Black Magic lived to 171/2 and only started going down the last 6 months of her life. There is plenty of love in the B's without so much of the puppitis that infects them until age 5 or 6! Cherry just wants to do what is best for these 4. So thank you for the words and send anyone searching to us to get them connected. God Bless, Dawn

Sean, as a new member of the Forum but an old doggy daddy I have had a lot of experience with many breeds. Reading about your requirements for a dog I have to suggest that you consider getting a rescue greyhound, it will be a great companion for when you run and the rest of the time they are very laidback. Basenji's are very intelligent and require a good deal of intellectual stimulation, otherwise they get bored and a bored B is a mischievious B.

They also need to have plenty of available things they are allowed to chew on! They are not a dog that can be allowed to get bored while unattended, not if you value your shoes, pencils, pillows, chair legs. . . .

Awesome breed,though! No doubt about it. I'm glad I stumbled into them.
I'd always heard about them when I was a kid,but it was just that they were "those African Barkless dogs". That's all I knew.
I'm hooked now though.
Two years ago Bloodhounds were my favorite dog. Now it's Basenji all the way! There are just no other dogs like them.
