Let us know when you find another basenji that will be suitable to your situation. We all want you to be happy.
Thank you Curlytails. We were very sad to pass up the puppy. It was our second disappointment in the process. Before we went on Christmas vacation, we were talking to an owner that wanted to find a new home for his basenji because he worked a lot and didn't have the time. Eventually he told me he couldn't part with his beloved, and I couldn't blame him. We have an inquiry on a dog through BRAT and are waiting to work out details with a home visit and whatever comes after that. I'm afraid our kids' ages may be an issue but we understand that they are only looking for the best home for the dogs and it may not be outs. We also contacted Signet Kennels and she has some older dogs that my hubby is really interested in, we are waiting to hear from her too. In the meantime, I am admiring everyone's pictures and laughing at some stories. Everything happens for a reason and our new love will come at the right time. 
I am admiring your character from across the ocean, and am feeling very confident you will find a Basenji to fit in your life. Even from your posts you seem adaptable, compassionate and patient, all very valuable skills in a Basenji parent. I think you will be well suited for the royal of B parent! Keep looking, I'm totally sure the forum and your contacts will get you the B your family is hoping for.
..oopps looks like you already are on top of it, sorry, I just saw Mary's name and went off, please forgive me for jumping the gun.
Sorry, I will get off my soapbox now..I just feel very passionately about this since I helped get two of her dogs out of her hands not many months ago.
I wish you best of luck..
Thank you. I couldn't believe what I was reading when I saw the thread from last year. We knew we couldnt go through with it after all of that i am saddened that she is doing this again agter all that she currently has four adult dogs one is a basenji mix plus the puppies i winder if reporting ber agin to her HOA would do anything maybe a hefty fine will get her to stop? Anyway, I didnt have her phone number anymore so I told her through email that we wouldn't be buying the puppy after all and I have yet to hear from her. I'd really like to let her know WHY we backed out.
We bought our girl from her and I'm glad we did, couldn't imagine her being the one used for breeding already… Out of her litter she was the only other girl besides the one they are currently breeding with....She is the sweetest most caring dog ever, makes me mad
If you haven't found a puppy yet I am in Oklahoma and have a 12wk old Basenji/beagle mix. She was born in my home. Her father is a Basenji mother was a Beagle. She was going to be kept by me and due to some unexpected circumstances I have decided to find her a good home. Her mother is now living with a friend but her dad is with me She's healthy and very sweet. She is pretty hyper and has a LOT of Basenji like qualities including looks and personality lol. She needs her 2nd set of shots but has had her first. I had to leave town due to family illness and missed the appointment for her 2nd set. Im in SW Oklahoma. You can call me if you'd like to know more. 580-492-4910. Im asking $50 for her.
If you decide to call me let me know who you are and that I contacted u here lol. Ive got a few ads up places for her. Im really trying to find her a good Basenji savvy home.

Aww. She is a total cutie and I would take her in a heartbeat. I love the video you posted of her climbing the fence not too long ago. Unfortunately, we can't take her. The hubs ter is still closed off to getting another dog right now. I'm not sure if you've read any of my other posts, but we lost our beloved Timmy after only having him for two weeks. Broke all of our hearts and he isn't willing to do it again just yet (another dog, not the heartbreaking part). Thank you for thinking of us though, best of luck.
You're welcome….and I read about Timmy and im sorry for your loss
