Thanks to you both for the excellent replies. I actually would like a rescue B but getting one that meets all my requirements might be tough. A pattern I seem to be picking up is that they are often raised in pairs. Is that a general trend?

My experience, up until now, has been with larger dog breeds: weimeraners and Dobermans. I have recently downsized to a townhouse, and am considering getting a Basenji. From what I've read, the smaller size and "bark less" characteristic (although I know they do vocalize) might suite my new living space.

I am single and semi-retired and while I work about 4-5 hours Monday through Friday, I will be home with a dog most of the time. I am a believer in working with and spending time with a dog. I would love to hear your thoughts, advice, and experiences with Basenjis. I love dogs and plan to make this pet my loved companion.

Oh, and btw, I DO have a cat. Is that going to be trouble?
