Looking for puppy or younger basenji near Chicago north suburbs

@dagodingo - A very close friend told me after I lost one of my Basenji girls "you carry a piece of their soul in your heart forever"... I have always held on to that for all the Basenjis that I have watched cross the Rainbow Bridge

@tanza said in House of the Basenji:

@WingedLion - Would that be the breeder in PR? I suggest you read my post on the post by the person looking for a puppy in So. California

I have read your post and replied to it.

Went to the show at Greyslake today. Brand new fair grounds with every breeder in the area showing. Wow talk about competitive. There were so many great looking dogs. Almost all the dogs acted up at some point in the ring. Great show to see basenjis and meet the breeders previously discussed and a lot of others who I do not know as well, but are in the loop.

Great that you are going to visit and seeing her basenjis first hand. That's one thing I admire about Jean - she is going to do what is best for her dogs and it is great that she is so straight forward - she wants it to work out for the dog and the person adopting. She may know of other breeders that have adults available - ask her when you visit with her - if you still think that basenjis are right for you. They aren't for everyone - my friends constantly ask me - you like these dogs why? hahaha

And just so you know and so you won't think it is uncommon, I have 3 that I would say would need a basenji experienced person, my 4th (which is Jean's boy, Ozzy), would probably be the perfect dog for anyone - he's almost an impostor because he is such an easy basenji - but I deserve him after my other three. 😉

I have been looking for a male basenji for quite awhile. Do you still have him? How much are you asking for him. Please send pictures and more information to mt_contry_girl@yahoo.com.

Thanks

Actually in Indiana - Baruh had an litter that I believe still has some puppies available. Linda is not online so if you email her you won't get far. If someone wants pictures contact me and I can send you pictures of who is available.
