    You should have considered that BEFORE you got a puppy.
    If I was your breeder,I would have made sure that your girlfriend
    was fine with a puppy.
    My own opinion is no puppy,no girlfriend.
    Just saying.

    My Basenji and best friend Doc and I would love to welcome a puppy. Doc is 12 and was just diagnosed with diabetes but I’m planning on him being around quite a while longer. A Basenji pup would be loved by the both of us. Please advise of your location if serious. Thanks and good luck

    Hi Luc,
    If you brought your puppy home from a breeder they will often help. If this is not an option please be very cautious in your next steps to rehome your puppy.

    I volunteer with Basenji Rescue and Transport (BRAT) and can guide you to educated, caring and experienced Basenji owners who can help you with your decision to rehome your puppy. The website: basenjirescue.org

    BRAT has volunteers nationwide (I don’t know your location). Please do not relinquish the puppy to a shelter. BRAT will make every attempt to work with you to see that the puppy is placed in a screened home for safety and experience.
    Thank you.

    @luc21
    Please add me to the growing list of people who are interested in your puppy if returning him to the breeder is not an option. My husband and I have had two basenjis. Our most recent boy died in 2017, and after his death we decided to wait until our daughter and her dog moved away from home before adopting another. We are ready now!
    I am sorry that your situation didn't work out. It must have been difficult for you (and your girlfriend) to conclude that the best solution was to rehome your pup.
    I joined this forum many years ago; you can find a few posts related to our first basenji Toby if you search. I have up-to-date adoption applications on file with BRAT and other organizations. I'd also be happy to forward any application information that might be helpful.
    I live near Grand Rapids, Michigan. If you email me at [removed private email] I'll respond with my telephone number.
    Best wishes,
    Michele Heinz

    Everyone! Please do not post your own or request others to post their email addresses or telephone numbers ... as there are security issues, privacy issues and spam issues all related to the posting of email addresses and phone numbers. This applies to forum threads, personal profiles and public visitor messages.

    @Luc21 It would be helpful if you could post their general location, a photo of their pup, along with details about their expectations. Are you giving this dog away, or charging a rehoming fee? Does the dog have AKC registration papers? Health testing? The more information the better. And please, follow the advice @tanza and @eeeefarm provided. First, contact the breeder that you got your pup from and let them know that you are looking for a new home for your pup!

    @luc21 Dump the girl. Keep your pup. Once you get rid of the pup, issues between you and your girl will still be there. It's not the pup... it's your girl. Sorry bro. No girl should ever want their man to get rid of their pup. (Speaks volumes). Think about it......Yup.....all bad.

    I can't believe that a responsible breeder would have sold you a puppy and NOT made it clear that, in the event that things went wrong, you would make immediate contact.

    But do let us know where you are. People are assuming you are in USA, but if not, you will need different advice of who to contact. But first and foremost - the breeder.

    Hi everyone,

    Thank you all for your comments, advice and interest in rehoming my little guy.
    I did contact the breeder but he said he couldn't keep him as he kept another puppy from this litter.
    We live in Spain and I'd like to find a family as close as possible before sending him overseas for such a long period of time.
    At the moment, I'm in contact with someone that has another Basenji and live relatively close. If we can't make it work, I will definitely consider everyone interested in adopting him.

    Thanks again.

    @luc21 Sadly, although I am in contact with hundreds of breeders and Basenji owners around the world, Spain is one country which is virtually a closed book. I would love to be able to contact Spanish breeders (I lived there for 5 years and have the language) in order to include their data in the on-line Basenji database which is shown in my signature block.

    PLEASE let me have the details of this young man and try to persuade the breeder to contact me with details of siblings and other litters.

    Basenji-people are a very close-knit community and it is a great shame when there is one country we have very little contact with and are unable to tell you how to proceed !

    @luc21 Spain! One of my favorite places on the planet. I'll look for Basenjis next time I'm lucky enough to visit. An amazing country. Hope your pup finds a home there. 😁

    I’m so sorry you have to go through this. Even though you are located in Spain, I would highly recommend reaching out to BRAT to see if they would be willing to help you re-home, or to see if they have any contacts there.

    Hi there!
    Sorry, I just saw your message.
    Fortunately for me I'm keeping my dog. After much discussion and agreement we've decided to keep him. He's much calmer and easier to live with now he's 7m.

    @senjisilly said in Basenji Puppy in US: Get Educated BEFORE you BUY I second this motion! Seriously... to quote the animal shelter I got my Aussie/Border Collie from during the holidays back in the day... "A dog is not for Christmas. It's for LIFE!" Let people who've been in this breed for some time, have contacts, know the in's and out's guide you. Picture in your mind a 15-year commitment. Help this breed by supporting responsible breeders who are passionate about the breed. How do you spot a Responsible Breeder? Insist on health testing PRIOR to breeding. Know your breeder's goals for the breed. Meet them! See if they're in @Zande's Pedigree Database. Read the Basenji Club of America Illustrated Standard on @tanza's site. Most of you won't ever show your dog and that's OK! Your breeder should know the Standard inside and out. They should be able to talk to it. Read it and ask them how their line supports the standard. Ask them what their breeding goals are, what they've been working on, where they are going, etc. That's fair. A good Basenji breeder is going ask you a TON of questions, AND THEY SHOULD! We want good solid safe homes for puppies, retired show dogs or dogs that don't want to show. Not every puppy will be a show dog. In fact, most won't be. Litters on average are between 4 and 6. Responsible breeders need pet homes for puppies that aren't going to part of their breeding programs. You can support responsible breeding by providing pet homes. Just make sure your breeder will make time for ALL your questions both before and AFTER the purchase. Mine will! :beaming_face_with_smiling_eyes: :thumbs_up:

    @rjbasenji - this is the time to align with a responsible breeder for a pup maybe in 2021. Because Basenjis only come in season once a year and their litter size is only 4-6 puppies, it is difficult to find one especially will all the people that "want" one... If you can visit with a breeder that would help you or if not call them on the phone and tell them why you think that a Basenji would be a good fit for your family/lifestyle.

    @culturalenigma: Hi all…sorry it's taken so long. I did not end up getting a Basenji - though I really really still want one. I did get a Jack Russell. As I said before, my mother breeds them and like any good breeder, when the people who bought her found out they were pregnant, they no longer wanted the puppy. So she was in need of a home and we were looking for a dog. Anyway, anyone know how a Basenji might get a long with a Jack? :cool: I know people with Jack's and Basenjis.. do just find.. but lots of energy there between the two….
