    Hello everyone!!

    Just wanted to say howdy and good Sunday Morning! Just found this site and looks pretty good.

    I currently have 1 Basenji, his name is Khafra and 1 Shiba Inu, his name is Nemo. They're both 2 years old. I'll be getting another Basenji on the 17th of Feb and am really lookin forward to havin a little girl in the house!! Hope my boys appreciate it!!

    I live in Seattle, WA and take my boys to the Magnuson dog park almost every weekend. I'm usually there VERY early in the morning, just to escape the crowds and let the boys play. Hope to see fellow NW Basenji lovers there some time.

    Thanks,

    Doug

    I got Khafra from Dana McDonald of Fataki Basenji in Port Orchard, WA and I'm getting the little girl from Connie Paulsen of Khanis Basenji's in Portland.

    Hello Doug & your dogs!

    We are from Portland, Oregon, though we got our red & white girl from Battle Ground, WA. The family visited our breeder friends there this afternoon so that Rou could admire her sister's new litter of eight adorable pups. Rou was more interested in chasing her younger brother Stevie. As with you, it looks like our famliy might expand by one basenji. If the trial period works out to everyone's benefit, we'll be adopting Stevie in a few weeks. It is a little nerve-wracking to add a new member to a happy family unit but we are ready to share the love!

    Best of luck with your newest addition,
    -pamela

    @gretchen - You might want to reconsider if you can't find exactly what you are looking for... go for the younger adult... IMO...

    Thanks again for all of your advice. It is nice to know that I am not the only one who is dealing with such a strong willed animal. He is currently laying on the floor chewing on a nylabone as is my golden "Levi". I can't say it often enough "I LOVE NYLABONES!" Well, now he is in my lap chewing his nylabone because Levi thinks that if Taz is chewing on it, it has to be better than the one he has. LOL

    Thank you thank you for the great advice and direction toward OFFA! I actually researched that information somewhat before I went to visit, then asked to make sure what was on the site was true from Kyle and Steve's mouths! Everything checked out so far with them–no health issues whatsoever :) So exciting! Blah, this will be the longest 4 months of my life, methinks!

    Trailer park to city! LOL big time. I think they might actually think such things:p There's not another breed I'd rather play second fiddle to. Welcome and enjoy your very debonair B.

    A couple thoughts to welcome baseni_fan to our pack: Hold on… it's gonna be the wildest ride you have ever been on! Think of it like parenthood: you can read all the books and listen to all the sage advice... but nothing can really prepare for the real thing! Older dogs bond fantastically.. our Rock was over 3 when he came to our home... and our lives were never the same. In a very short time, he became very loyal and bonded to our pack. Each dog is different. I truly think they choose us. Enjoy the hunt! This is a fantastic breed... but be prepared. They can also be the most infuriating. grin I think that is half the fun. I love having a dog that makes me think. Best of luck to you and your future pup (be it old or young)! Welcome to the crazy (dog)house!
