R/W Neutered Male Available

Basenjis For Sale or Wanted
  • He is lovely.

  • I hope he finds a new home soon because he is a very handsome boy!

  • I hope he finds a special home soon too. Seeing all these handsome boys and pretty girls makes me want to take them all! I'd love to just scoop em all up and have a whole basenji HERD!!

    lol

  • Michael let me further clarify from a breeders perspective. For example I typically bred every couple of years but have not had a basenji litter for 5 now. In order to ensure that I have space to help with rescue when needed - and for those of my breeding whose family situation changes - I don't keep a ton of dogs either. If it is not a dog that I am showing, or planning on useing in my breeding program and the choice is live as one among many or find the dog a wonderful home of his own. I will always choose what is best for the dog.

    The hardest 2 things I do are putting down the old and infirm at the end of their lives, and parting with a dog I ador when I give it a chance to be someones treasured companion.

    If we bred to keep - we would soon have no room!

    (to say nothing of the cities and towns we live in coming to knock on our doors.)

  • Michael,

    As with the breeders that posted while I was away, do take a look… Tank was in a litter whelped the fall prior to the reease of the Fanconi linkage test. Looking on the CPP database (all of my dogs are public information) you will note that they all have had their blood samples on fie for quite some time, just anxiously awaiting the test to be public.

    Yes, I have absolutely NO problem that I have bred that Fanconi Affected male. He is gorgeous and a lovely contribution to the gene pool. Sure he has the Fanconi genes that I'd prefer not to pass down, but when bred to a clear, that is a non-issue.

    You are more than welcome to look on the www.offa.org database to peruse my kennel name and the gads of dogs that are tested but not used for breeding. NOT ALL DOGS need to be bred. Not even ones that are as lovely as Tank. He is a darling and a joy to live with… but I have access to his sister, so there is no need to use him as well. I know this may not be something that is understandable to someone that has not been there as of yet.

    You will find when looking up my dogs that I do a lot of health testing... I have had my share of Fanconi, and I will continue to breed good healthy dogs, with sound temperaments. EVEN if it means using an affected. One learns never to say never in this arena... so I won't say I wouldn't knowingly use another affected male again, though I currently have no plans for that.

    Do I suggest using affecteds to others? NO. Unless the breeder has established a good bloodline and would like to continue on with it, I don't see why a 'new' breeder needs to use an affected when there are plenty of non-affecteds at their disposal.

    If you have questions for me regarding my breeding program, you are free to email me directly about it.

  • Kathy,
    Is Tank still available? I did send someone your way that was looking for a young dog, not particularly a puppy?

  • Yes, Tank is still available.
    I had a call from someone in Cali this weekend but I just got home last last night, perhaps that was her?
    He is neutered already, and is great with kids, loves them bunches.
    Just loves little and fuzzy more than any owner would like :D him to!

    Any referrals would be greatly appreciated….
    AND I am more than happy to fly him somewhere.. but ALL family parties have to be on board if he flies... he prefers non-stop too :cool:

  • Tank is inhis new home in Canada…
    waiting for a playmate I am sure!
    He says, nope, these counters aren't too tall I can surf them too!

    it is a quiet house with only 3 puppy girls and no Tankini!

  • I so love happy endings! HOpe everything works out for Tank in his new home.

  • I'm glad to hear that Tank has found a new home. :)

    Try. contacting Cindy Griswold at http://flyn-hi-hounds.com. She's really near Austin, and I'm 99% sure she doesn't have any puppies, but if there was a reputable breeder near you with puppies she would likely know about that.

    This boy is no longer available. Fortunately for him, the original owners wanted to continue working with him instead of returning him. He is doing well and still there.

    I think they're trying to look legit! Knowing that most "ethical" breeders ask a good amount for our dogs (course mind you we have a lot of money stuck into our dogs prior to the "sale" price). And the fact that we're not into dogs to make money.
