Welcome to the group! I think it is a great idea to visit a breeder of Basenjis with your son. I hope he will be OK with a Basenji and his allergies don't act up because you all will have such fun with a Basenji. They are smart and sassy and funny and so loving and loyal. If you don't have your heart set on a puppy since very few are available now, you might register with Basenji Rescue and Transport to see if they have an older dog for you. My Basenjis have all been rescues and while each was different, each was the light of my life.

Hello!
I currently live with Wilder, a shy 5 yr old brindle male. Our house is quiet after living with three B's for most of the last 16 years. Laika and Rigby are no longer with us, and life has become very quiet. Before Wilder, we had a rescue, Luke, for three years who we treated for Fanconi. He was a dear old man.I am watching the BRAT list for a companion for Wilder. I am looking for a B who is good with children (grandchild expected in June) and who is within driving distance of Louisville. Affectionate would be nice, because Wilder is not, and I miss that. We are not in a rush because Miles, my granddog is staying with us while my Son-in-law goes through cancer treatment in Houston.
I am glad to have found this group…

I'm sorry for your losses. I'm sure you'll find another B companion. Welcome to the forum.

So sorry to hear about your losses..We just lost two of our beloved dogs this past spring..so hard to go through. I know you will find that perfect mate for Wilder, just have patience..I love his name by the way..too cool.
Have you done an application to BRAT yet? Sometimes they have dogs available that hasn't made it online yet..some never make it online, they get adopted before they get a profile set up..My last foster Dotty was like that. Put your name in the hat and some things might pop up, without even trying..
Good luck…and oh yeah...WELCOME..that should've been the first thing..

Thanks! We are registered with BRAT… ooh, I miss licks, but yes, they did get too much.
