| BASENJI BOOK FINDING A DOG BOOK MADE SIMPLE ALPHABETIC BREED SEARCH |
PET STREET MALL
The Basenji is alert, affectionate, energetic, curious and reserved with strangers. The Basenji is
somewhat aloof, but can also form strong bonds with people and can become emotionally attached to a
single human. Basenjis may not get along with non-canine pets. It is commonly patient, but does best with
older considerate handlers. Basenjis dislike wet weather, like to climb, can easily get over chain wire
fences, and are very clever at getting their own way. The Basenji has the unique properties of not
barking (it makes a low, liquid ululation instead) and cleaning itself like a cat. It can be described as
speedy, frisky, tireless at play, and teasing the owner into play. Most Basenji problems involve a
mismatch between owner and pet. Basenjis often stand on their hind legs, somewhat like a meerkat, by
themselves or leaning on something; this behavior is often observed when the dog is curious about
something. Basenjis reveal their animal-of-prey nature by chasing after fast moving objects that cross
their paths.

RECOMMENDED READING
The "barkless dog of Africa," the Basenji comes to America via the jungles of the
Congo. Unique not only for his yodel-like voice, this affectionate and aristocratic
canine possesses the grace and cleanliness of a feline, the hunting instincts of a
terrier, the speed of a greyhound and the smarts and naughtiness of a typical
teenager. As a family dog, companion, weekend sports dog and show dog, the
Basenji is a delightful choice for the experienced, patient owner, willing to devote the
necessary time to raise and train this sensitive, independent canine.
Sighthound author, judge and breeder, Juliette Cunliffe provides an insightful retelling
of the Basenji's origins and development in Africa as well as the breed's rise to fame
in the US. The breed's characteristics and breed standard are presented in addition
to excellent advice about selecting, raising and house-training a puppy. All Basenji
owners will welcome the author's helpful chapters on everyday care, including
feeding, grooming and exercise, and obedience training and problem-solving based
on a positive training and commonsense approach. This book is the responsible first
choice of every new owner of a Basenji.
