Breed description: The Basenji is a small, short haired hunting dog from Africa. It is short backed and lightly built, appearing high on the leg compared to its length. The wrinkled head is proudly carried on a well arched neck and the tail is set high and curled. Elegant and graceful, the whole demeanor is one of poise and inquiring alertness. The balanced structure and the smooth musculature enables it to move with ease and agility. The Basenji hunts by both sight and scent. Characteristics--The Basenji should not bark but is not mute. The wrinkled forehead, tightly curled tail and swift, effortless gait (resembling a racehorse trotting full out) are typical of the breed. Faults--Any departure from the following points must be considered a fault, and the seriousness with which the fault is regarded is to be in exact proportion to its degree.

The Basenji is a very intelligent breed and are loyal to their owners. The adult Basenji weighs 20-25 pounds when fully grown. They are a sight and scent hound breed and have a very keen nose for tracking game. They also can top out at speeds up to 35 mph. Basenjis are natural hunters and see/smell game very well. Basenjis will tend to be dominant in their behavior with other dogs. They require a fenced-in yard to keep from escaping when they are on the hunt. If they see a cat, bird or rabbit run across in front of them, they will chase it at all costs. Basenjis get killed by automobiles because they were turned loose or escaped their yards. The Basenji does not bark, but can make other noises instead such as a growl, a whine and or a yodel. They have a short coat and keep themselves very clean such as a cat does. They do not shed much and they are odorless. The Basenji does not require much grooming and they do not care to get wet. Basenjis love children if they are raised with them. They are easily trained and learn very quickly. If you are ready for a challenging companion, then consider owning a Basenji.
