Hello Marian,
Welcome. What a happy home it must be.
We are Kees-Jan and Anne-Marie from Marken, north of Amsterdam. Where do you live? Maybe we can walk together some time? Also check http://www.basenji-club.nl/ for basenji walks.
We have two daughters from Abotere Khamau, Lela and Binti (2,5 and 3,5 years old) - our first dogs, and we recognize a lot that you wrote.
People warned us about getting a basenji, but we have not been happier since they took over our house and hearts. Lela came with us as a pup (enought to keep you busy) and Binti joined half a year later - it took her around 1,5 years to really settle.
Here's a picture with their big mama friend Kiko the Akita https://picasaweb.google.com/lh/photo/dNOYjJPSlhUGbZK3LZxvbwxZLf3J_PvRjNp46MdVlt4?feat=directlink
We hope to meet all of you soon.
Hello from Florida

Hi everyone! I am very new to the world of Basenjis. I recenty got engaged to a man who has a 6 yr old Basinji named Kitiara (along with a German Shepard- Usha and a Golden Retriever- Amber). When you add my cat- Jewel Kitty to the mix, we have quite the family! I am very interested in learning everything I can about the breed and look forward to recieving lots of good advice. I have the feeling that I am in for quite an adventure! We just moved into a new house and as soon as I can find my camera I will post some pics.

Another welcome from Tampa here. Have you had the dogs to Dogwood Park? It is an amazing 26 acre fenced dogpark in Jacksonville with a huge pond, we planned a vacation a couple of years ago so we could stop there for an evening for our 3 to play. It really is great, and open to non-members on weekends for a very small fee.
This is a great place to learn about basenjis, the good and the bad. They are cat-like in personality, very clean and incredibly smart. You are in for some fun!
