    We decided to place this dog with BRAT, so he is no longer available.We have an 8 month old male,unneutered, tri-color who needs a new home. He weighs 21 pounds, is friendly with other dogs and people. ACA papers available; copy of pedigree back 4 generations. We bought him for our daughter, but the place she was moving burned so she can't take him. He is available now for $200, negotiable. We would rather not ship, but will meet potential owners a reasonable distance away. We are near Knoxville, TN;
    Thanks, Marilyn Skulstad

    Has he been DNA tested for Fanconi? And also, if not AKC registered… the really you should consider neutering him.... While a perfect pet is great... leaving a unregistered dog in-tact and no health tested is not really responsible

    Please don't place intact dogs as pets.
    They can end up in puppymills…its awful for any dog...
    Please fix pet dogs before rehoming them...

    Here's a little more info on our Basenji boy. We have an appointment to get him neutered next week. I am not sure about the Fanconi testing, but have the breeder's name and contact info. He was originally bought by an elderly couple who couldn't handle a young, energetic dog. They sold him to a family where one of the children broke out in a rash, apparently allergic to him. That's who we bought him from for our 24 year old daughter who now can't have a dog where she lives. We have 6 other dogs so just don't have time to give another one enough attention. We are very concerned that he goes to a good, forever home this time because he really is a good dog.
    Thanks, Marilyn

    That is great that he will be neutered. As far as Fanconi testing you can check his sire and dam at www.offa.org. It the sire and dam are not there, then he should be DNA tested and you can find information about testing at www.basenjihealth.org

    Marilyn, I am also in Knoxville, TN and we tried to get this boy into BRAT from the original elderly owners, but they would not release him to BRAT… sad that he had to go through sooo many homes that obviously didn't understand basenji behavior. Is he still in the Knoxville/East TN area?? Do you have Basenjis in East Tn that might like to have a playdate?? I have only run into a few Bs here and have been unable to do form a group... which I would love to do!!!

    Our B went to a family in another state. They have had Bs in the past and really wanted another one. The only home that may not have understood B behavior was the first one with the elderly couple. The family we got him from wanted to keep him but had a child who was allergic. Our daughter wanted to keep him also but could not have a dog where she is living. We have 6 other dogs, and felt we could not give him the attention he deserves. We would have liked to keep him, but believe he will have a better home where he now is. Thank you for your concern.
    Marilyn

    Yes, Soda from Edmonton. He is doing pretty well now, but still can't handle stress very well. But he looks 100% better than when he arrived home and his playfullness is just coming out. He still loves cuddles and kisses and is actually very, very good. Isn't destructive, quiet for the most part and isn't prone to outrageous behaviour.

    Breeding once a year actually is not a problem health wise. Breeding to produce pets for income… not so much.

    I just wanted to respond to this thread. I hope everything is going good with you and things are working out. The thing I wanted to respond to was the thought that a man may have abused him since he does not do well with men. A basenji can make their mind up about disliking something for no reason at all. My first Basenji was with me from 6 weeks of age and never had a man abuse him and at two years old decided he hated men for the next two years. I kept him socialized and kept getting men to feed him pet him while I had him stacked and holding his head, had them talk to him, go over hime etc. after a while his dislike left as quickily as it came. I have had a few dogs do this sort of stuff between 12 and 18 months I call it the stupid stage, they all the sudden don't like men, women, the grooming table, the trash can outside etc. It is important to work them through their fear so they can be a complete dog. Just think how it would be for you if say you were scared of men but had to see them daily just think how stressful your life would be. I hope if you keep him you help him get through this or if you place him please be honest with the new owners and recommend that they get him out and work him through this.

    @roxandsweet: male vs. female registerable vs. non-registerable different colors Interesting, responsible breeders don't price according to color or sex. And AKC frowns on the practice of charging more for the papers, as do responsible breeders.
