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 Texas

Welcome to the forums, Luke is just adorable. Hold on to your hat… you are in for a wild ride, LOL!!! AAaaahhhhh, but how we love our little "beasties." Basenjis are the most amazing breed, I am totally smitten with my Bella. She keeps me laughing and keeps me warm at night. She looks at me with those deep, dark eyes and has me wrapped around her little Basenji paw...;)

Everything is going great. He is getting more comfortable everyday and starting to show his quirky personality. About twice a day, he goes absolutely nuts and runs all over the place. He had his first vet visit, and he was a real hit there. His housetraining is going great. He even wakes me up in the middle of night with a nibble on the head to let me know he needs to go out. He loves to chew on all his toys, but he is starting to get real interested in chewing the legs of the furniture. The bitter apple spray works pretty good, but he still finds spots to chew. Ill post up some new pics soon.
