    Hello, I am Carol in California and I have had Basenjis since 1962. I have bred & co-owned 4 Best in Show Basenjis in the US (which I didn't show myself) and one that was the top winning dog in Uruguay for 3 years and have handled a LOT of Basenjis that I have bred to their Championships. I love breeding, raising and then showing dogs. I am pretty old now but still manage to get around the ring and finish a dog or two a year. During my early years I also raised 5 sons while showing my Basenjis on a very limited budget. Still on a limited budget so don't advertise much. I currently have 17 Basenjis and 4 puppies. Several of them are old and/or dogs I have had to take back for one reason or the other. I hope I can figure out how to use this forum to at least read posts, I am not very technically savvy. Also there are only so many hours in a day for all the posts to read on the various lists.

    Welcome-can't wait to hear your stories. Many like myself are just starting out and would love to hear from another long time Basenji person.

    Welcome! My goodness you must be busy! I'm sure you'll figure it out…if I can post threads and pictures (not that I do pics often), anyone can!
    Looking forward to hearing about your wealth of experience...you must have some great stories to tell!

    Hi Carol!!

    Liz and I came to visit you and your dogs back in November, remember us?? I'm from Maui, she's from Atlanta…
    I love your username! I still think of you and your dogs when I see the movie "Eragon" :) I remember that you loved the narrator's voice in the book on tape.
    We ended up with a four year old brindle girl from Denise and we're already thinking about number 2, as soon as we have the resources. One could say we are definitely basenji crazy, and in only 3 months!
    Welcome to the forum! I hope all is well with you and your B's.

    Welcome Bryan. My husband and I met you last year at the EBC Specialty (my husband uses a wheelchair). At that time, we were basenji-less. We now have Kipawa, our 11 month old companion dog, that we were able to get from Therese and Kevin Leimback. He's our pride and joy. :)

    Hi Jill, You mentioned before that we probably live near each other. I just learned here where you aquired Duke! Wow! Was the other pup a black and white? I was initially attracted to the red and white which Joey is, but have seen some beautiful b/w. I doubt we would ever get another dog but it's fun to think what is might be like to have 2 Bs. Perhaps some day we could meet in a park to walk the dogs. Joey is 11 months and not neutered yet. He is tolerant of all dogs and aloof. We met his sister, Tory, who was taken at 8 wks and she is nasty! She snarled,"barked", etc at her brother and he just looked at her like she was crazy! We all laughed! Tory's mom is a friend of mine and how I found Joey. Send me a private email if you are interested. I'm sure I could learn a lot from you.
