I've hunted deer with my basenji in emergency situations during archery season. She has helped me find several wounded deer in the woods after dark. Basenjis are easily distracted by other trails and other deer scents so you need to make them associate the smell of deer blood with getting a raw venison treat. My basenji found a deer for me the first time I tried it with her. Most dogs need extensive training for this but she picked it up in 10 minutes. She has helped me a great deal. If there is no blood on the ground however it'd be tough depending on the wind direction, and they usually get distracted by diverging deer trails if there is no blood to follow.

We have just acquired our first basenji and have named her Kayah. I'm really looking forward to conversing with other basenji owners. There is never a dull moment in our home anymore..just lots of laughter and fun.

We are having a hard time posting pictures. My husband managed to upload one which is in our profile section. When he tried to upload another to post, the system wouldn't allow it. Hopefully we will sort it out.

We acquired Kayah from a breeder close to Smith Falls, Ontario. Bev was great and sent us new pictures of our pup and her litter mates every week. She also provided us with weekly updates with respect to Kayah.
