The Basenji is probably closer to the wild dog of the jungle and the
desert than any other domestic breed, which makes him unique in the
world of dogs. He is a natural hunter with the ability to make the
best use of sight scent and sound, all of which tends to have its
disadvantages.

Although he is extremely intelligent, his strongly developed hunting
instincts can be his undoing. He is willful, mischievous and has a
most "catlike " spirit of independence.
However, to the dog-lover who has the patience and
tolerance to
really understand the Basenji, he can be the most affectionate,
lovable family companion.
He is easily house-trained, fastidiously clean, and will greet each
and every member of the family with equal enthusiasm on their return
to the house.
The Basenji is
independent hound, who needs exercise, either in his own safe yard or by taking walks on a
lead. A Basenji w ho is left alone all day will soon become bored and
can cause damage. If you think a Basenji can just roam the streets
all day, coming home at meal times
THEN YOU ARE
NOT SUITABLE FOR A BASENJI
If you are a person, who has a yard with fences, with patience
to train a dog which has a mind of its own, and TIME to be a pal to
him.............
THEN YOU ARE
SUITABLE FOR A BASENJI
BASENJIS
ARE NOT THE RIGHT DOG FOR EVERYONE

They are unique
and have a personality all of their own
And are quite different
from other breeds
