All pups have been placed as responsible breeders have reservation lists. We are not at this time planning a litter for 2020 or 2021. I would be happy to talk to you about Basenjis. You can search for responsible breeders at www.basenji.org by state, however as far as I know all responsible breeders on the West Coast already have full reservation lists. You would be looking at litters possible in 2021. This is the time to connect with a responsible breeder and get on their reservation lists for 2021. And if you are looking for a dog that is hypoallergenic, Basenjis do shed and have dander so they are not really hypoallergenic. While they can do well with people with allergies, you need to spend time with them and more than one time. Be sure that you check out health testing yourself, regardless of what you might be advised. Tests for DNA testing is public knowledge at www.ofa.org. You need to have either a registration number or name to check this out for yourself to verify. I suggest all people looking for a Basenji, even my own, do this.

Does anyone know of any breeders in the midwest who is still actively breeding? I am looking for a puppy/ young basenji in Minnesota and am struggling to find one. I am more than willing to travel.
Thank you for your time.

All of my basenjis have come from Tad Brooks (Meisterhaus- KY) and Jan Kahl (Jadaka- MO). There are a lot of great breeders in the Midwest!

Go to www.basenji.org and you can search for breeders by state

the AKC Marketplace lists a dozen or so breeders with pups (or pups coming)... not sure which would be the closest to your location. I don't know who is respectable and who isn't either... just passing the link along...

An excellent breeder nearby (Poynette WI) is Laura Mae Hesse (Laurel kennels)

@elbrant - I would suggest that a better choice to find a responsible breeder is to go to the parent club for the Basenji, www.basenji.org and search by state. Anyone can advertise at AKC Marketplace and not all that are on that site are responsible breeders. Make sure to do your homework first....
