Thank you for the input eeeefarm, that is exactly what I'm planning to do once ive done some more research.i have been around many different breeds of dogs over the years but never owned one myself so I have a fair bit of knowledge about most breeds and I would never put my children in harm's way or any dog for that matter. If I'm not as sure as I can be about my family's ability to love,look after and train a dog we won't be having one. This is why I got onto this forum to gather as much information from owners (like your good self) and others who have bothered to read my message properly,as I can before we go ahead and take on a very large commitment.
Looking for a young Basenji or Young adult in the midwest area, I am from Illinois.

Have you looked at Basenji Rescue & Transport?
This might be just what you're searching for.....

Go to www.basenji.org and search for responsible breeders by state. Basenji breeding season is typically in the Fall, so most all pups are born November/December and responsible breeders have reservation lists. You will have a hard time finding a pup this time of year. You are most likely looking at Winter 2017. Time is now to start working with a breeder

Also, check with Camp Basenji. Although she's in FL, she has homes up north and is willing to transport to the right home.
Contact her because she doesn't list most dogs on the site.
