Out of Africa, the Basenji dog breed was originally found in the Congo. These dogs use both scent and sight to hunt and were originally used to flush small game into hunters’ nets and to control village rodent populations. Science has now proven what Basenji fanciers have long believed to be true: Basenjis are one of the oldest breeds of dogs. Fanciers consider the Basenji to be the most beautiful and clever of all breeds. The proud bearing, curly tail, wrinkled brow and sense of humor of the breed is the breed lover’s ideal. Whether hunting or prowling the kitchen, whether proudly posing in the sun or garnering hugs, the Basenji captures the devotion of its owner.

  1. Rajapalyam, Mudhol Hound, Chippiparai/Kanni, Rampur Greyhound. All Indian Hound breeds. Any of them available in USA? Would love to hear your take on these.

  2. Can you do a review on the Miniature Schnauzer? Love your channel btw!

  3. My wife had a basenji for 11 years i was with him for 4, the best dog ever, he will never be forgotten.

  4. I really like this dog. Its a "natural" breed.
    You should do one on the Csrolina Dog and the Azawahk. Two other very old natural breeds.

  5. I remember when I delivered newspapers in the early eighties to a house where the guy bread them they don't look quite the same

  6. These are so cool! My uncle had one and he really didn't bark just yodeled but guarded the yard for sure

  7. I love their look. I just wish they were taller dogs. When I first learned of them I thought they were a taller dog

  8. Since everyone is making requests….how about the Shina ibu or the shiba inu….either one is fine. Lol

  9. I'm looking to get a Basenji in the UK but I cannot find any breeders here, does anyone know any?

  10. Sad story alert!!!

    At 18, in 1979, my best friend backed his '65 ranchero out of his driveway.
    His dad's basenji was lying on the driveway, behind the rear wheel unseen.

    You can guess the horrifically awful…I'm not gonna paint the picture of his injuries here but…trust me, he was not repairable.

    I was tasked with putting him down with a .22 Hornet. My friend couldn't do it. Although I've hunted since age 9, I was sickened by the task.
    I did it. Had to be done.
    Hardest thing I'd ever had to do at that point in my life.
    Telling my friends dad when he got home was a close 2nd.

    Always check behind your vehicle when backing out.
    Never assume! Kids can die too…

  11. Been looking for this breed in BC, Canada. Hard to find.. can you do a another video on great danes.

  12. WOW I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU DIDN'T TOUCH ON THE ONE CHARACTERISTIC THE BREED IS WELL KNOWN FOR…THEY DON'T BARK…THEY YODEL

  13. This dog reminds me of my dog 🐕 in Philippines 🇵🇭I don’t know exact breed but I think it was an “Aspin” at the same time I think it’s part basenji sense it doesn’t bark that much and short hair

  14. The dog I lost in November 2019 was a Basenji/English border collie cross. She was smart, gorgeous and so much fun to be with. I don't think I ever put her on a leash more than a few times in her whole 14-year life. I trusted her and she knew it.

  15. Cool dog's, I prefer smaller dog's, just because the life expectancy is a bit longer then a lot off big dog's, I like bigger dog's too for shure, I have a fox terrier mix he looks a bit like the basenji, but a bit taller(17Kilo) and with folded ears.

  16. I've got a 1/2 besengi I love to death looks just like this only smaller . Kinda snappy cuz he's old but he's great !

  17. I love this breed! Have owned 2, including Savannah, who lived to almost 16. Pros: They are loving and dedicated to their owners and have a wonderful sense of humor. Practically no grooming.Also they don't bark! Cons: they have strong prey instincts so cannot be let off leash unless in an enclosed area.
