Family near Indy needing a Basenji !

Basenjis For Sale or Wanted
  • Well as I said in the welcome thread, I live just west of Indy, and have been wanting a Basenji for a few years, my daughter is finally old enough where it is practical, as well as my schedule will now allow me to invest in one

    I am looking to make a Basenji part of our family and and spoil her or him rotten.;)

    Due to my wife's allergies we must have a purebred, but I am trying to obtain one at a somewhat "reasonable" price if possible. However I really can't put a price on what he would mean to us. so… let me know !!

  • Please consider www.basenjirescue.org as a resource. So many dogs need homes and they can be of great support to you! I wish you the best.

  • Are you west of Indy as in Indianapolis IN?
    I am in Lebanon if you are.
    I adopted from BRAT in Nov of O5 and I was very impressed with them as an organization. They made sure that my basenji and I were a good fit and the people are so nice.
    I also ended up with an amazing little boy who I wouldnt trade for anything.
    Check on the BRAT website, I know of one that is available to the right home, but there are usually more that are in the process of being posted. Get your home visit scheduled and let them know you and know what kind of B you are looking for and they may be able to find you one.

    Hurry up and get yours, its almost "dog park" weather:)

    My Squiggy and my sister's Petey love to go to the Eagle creek park. Maybe we will see you there!:)

    Yes I have already applied and have been intially contacted by BRAT yesterday. I hope to hear back again on the status soon.

    I will keep them crossed for you guys!

    Squiggy and I went o Eagle Creek dog park yesterday and although it was a muddy mess he had a blast. Some of the dogs would not chase him (which is his fave game)….So hurry up and get yours so my B can have some competition out there :)

    BRAT really is great, keep us all her updated.

  • I actually have something (female) that might fit the bill for you - if you have not found anyone by you - let me know.

  • Hi Bob,

    @venserro - Please be sure to check out pedigrees and also health testing, you should always check that out for yourself... I always refer anyone interested in Basenjis, including my own breed to Ofa.org to review DNA testing... you can look for responsible breeders at www.basenji.org and you would be better looking at the Pacific Northwest...pleaseask for references and for sure health testing. +

    @jodymp another post you sent stated you were in Yorkshire... so, are you looking for a pup in Europe? Do you have a specific region, or a distance range where you are focusing your search?

    You can search for breeders by state at www.basenji.org. Also you can find the link to the breeder liaison. This is the best way to find a responsible breeder. You can use this link to learn how to find a responsible breeder and what questions to ask. https://www.basenji.org/learn/ScreeningBreeders.htm You should always get health testing details and check out those results for yourself...just don't take someone's word on it....
