Ask the breeder how big the sire and dam are. That's a good idea. My first basenji, who was a champion, weighed nearly 26 pounds when she matured. My 2nd one would have been about that, but thanks to steroids, we did good to keep her at 30. My current rescue is a giant. We won't go there. I first dreamed of a SMALL dog, maybe 15 pounds tops after years of being a BIG DOG person (rottweilers and chows). I don't see that ever happening.
New Friend for Leo

hi Proteinman - great pictures of your new puppy Cali blending in with the rest of the family. She looks supercute. It's great to hear when the more senior dog in the family accepts the little ones - love the picture of Leo licking Cali.
Congratulations on your basenji-enhanced family!
-
Aaah.. She's very cute! Congrats! And a big 'welcome to the forum' for Cali

Very cute, who did she come from? Related to any here already?

Cali is a littermate of Tenji. Her full name is Beaubri's Devine Diva. Sire is Beaubri's Diamond In The Ruff and Dam is Beaubri N Terrarust Bellagio.
We took a walk/hike today. Working on that leash training!

"Basenji-enhanced." I like that, Kipawa.
Congratulations on the additional cuddlebug.

Congratulations to Leo and humans! Love the photos of them together. Soon your shoes and furniture may be "basenji-enhanced" as well.

She looks lovely and seems to be getting on great with Leo:D

Adorable pup! Great to see everyone getting along well

Nice to see Leo accepts Cali! I like the darker brindle color.
And of course this would be Cali's older…or younger..brother Tenji.
