@daureen - I will also say that my C-Me picked me... note however that most all responsible breeders will pick the pup for the home.. this is why breeders want to know all about the home/family/lifestyle, we want them to be in their forever homes... that said there are exceptions.. in my case this was a puppy back from a breeding... I had the choice of the 5 bitches in the litter but from the moment that I went in the house, this was the pup that came to me and didn't want to leave. LOL... and in some cases there could be two that are about the same and would fit the family... then they have a choice. My C-Me was a great choice and while there were others in the litter that was maybe a bit nicer as a show puppy, but I could not turn away from this girl that picked me... She is a Dual Champion and whelped a wonderful litter... And she is a loving girl to all in the family
Meet Ripley, Basenji #2 in our fam
-
We welcomed our first Basenji in February 2021 (Charlie’s pic is in member intros from last year), and it was time to get him a sister.
This is Ripley at 14 weeks. She is everything we hoped she would be helping our other Basenji adjust to life alone when working from home was no longer an option. She loves food, using her crate as a potty ( ), and is extremely vocal (makes us laugh every time). We were so worried getting a second, but don’t regret it for an instant.
And here are our 2 together.
-
Beautiful! Enjoy them.
-
Name, rank and serial number ? (to paraphrase !) PLEASE tell us the registered names and those of parents. So many of us are related through our Basenjis and anyway, two such lovelies should be in the on-line pedigree database, with photos !

@macattack
Congratulations! Wow! Great looking FAMILY! They will keep you on your toes and bring you lots of joy! ️ -
@zande - Totally agree Zande, would love to know...

@macattack Great looking pair. Love your new little brindle. Now you have a pack.
-

@macattack Thank you for that ! I went to the AKC website and found her registration number and she has joined one other registered sibling in the on-line database ! She will appear this evening when I re-upload it all.
I will try to 'poach' the photo and add that too. Is Charlie, your other Basenji, in the d/b ? And if you can get hold of photos of the parents we can add those too. Just email me them privately - photos named with names of each dog.
