They are also very clever at winning people over. My sis, who owns and loves chow chows, just didn't 'get' my excitement when I made plans to get a basenji. At the beginning, she thought Kipawa was cute, but she was still reserved with her feelings. However, she is totally in love with Kipawa now, and he loves her too. And she is now loving the breed itself. If she sees a good basenji picture somewhere, she will post it on facebook. Those basenji faces can just melt our hearts, and that is why the little buggers can get away with so much. 🙂
Basenjis: A Complete Pet Owner's Manual by Mary Lou Kenworthy
-
Because it is a Barron's book, it is one of the easier to get basenji books. I really enjoyed it but I am probably a little biased since it is filled with my dogs' Kenset relatives.
-
Just arrived in the mail today…from e-bay...an autographed blue book (second edition) of Victoria Tudor-Williams' Basenjis, The Barkless Dogs! Not as relevant as Sue Coe's book, but I have wanted one for years!

I also bought this book before getting Dallas & am so grateful I did! It has a lot of useful information about such a unique breed
-
-
A Kennel Club Book: Basenji is also a great book. It has about 155 pages and written by Juliette Cunliffe.
-
So I found two books out by here the first blue one then the one that says Basenjis: Everything About History, Purchase, Care, Training, And Health. Which one is better for soon to be puppy owner?
-
I just purchased Mary Lou Kenworthy's and Juliette Cunliffe's books. Lookin' forward to getting them.
-
The Basenji, by Susan Coe is a great reference to have also
-
I ordered The "Basenji" ( blue book) From America ( i live in Italy)…and loved it!!! It gave me good advice...but will be looking for other ones to read. This one cost me Euro15.00!!! $21.12...thats a lot isnt it??
-
Dio you mean Veronica Tudor Williams' 'Blue' book? If so 15 Euros is a bargain.
-
I've bought this book and find it to be excellent. It's well targeted to basenjis, instead of being a dog book where all they do is edit the name of the breed and pump out numerous owner's manuals. I plan on re-reading it and highlighting the various passages that will help me when I purchase my puppy.
-
Another good book is The Basenji by Susan Coe
-
You can get this book cheap on Amazon. I have these books:
The Second Hand Basenji Handbook
Basenjis by Jack Shafer and Bob Mankey
The Complete Basenji by Elspet Ford
