@giza1 Who are you talking to Joanne, me? Because all of the wonderful breeders you're referring to are doing NOTHING to stop this woman except referring people who ask to other breeders. 3 rescues in less than a year, all with health and temperament problems. Excuse me for being incredibly bitter, but I couldn't save one of her dogs, spent a week going to the ER twice a day for IV antibiotics and needed surgery on my hand because she overbreeds, hasn't got a f**king clue and is irresponsible AND THE REST OF THE BCOC MEMBERS look the other way! There is one canadian basenji breeder I'll recomend, and she's in Vancouver. At this time last year, I spent my Christmas crying over a dog who was under quarantine order, waiting to be released by the County Health Department so I could have him euthanized. You want to talk about our "wonderful canadian breeders" you're part of the problem! They have zero heart and look the other way--as long as they're making money they don't give a sh*t!
Thoughts on a Breeder in Africa for new foundation lines?
-
Hi all,
After 2 years of research and finding no registered Basenji Breeders in Africa, we are considering a small limited breeding of African Basenji's, born in Africa, in order to cultivate possible new foundation lines for breeders around the world. Unfortunately, as there are no Basenji Breeders in my country, finding a mentor is difficult and any advice would be welcome.
Just to highlight, this is not a "set in stone" plan, just an idea we had to possibly help preserve or assist the breed.
Thoughts? -
@danninyx - Hello, I sent you an email as response to your email to me about your request. You can read about the imports at www.basenji.org and I included Katie Campbell who has successfully brought early Africa imports into her breeding program. She would be the most informed to help you, I believe.

Get in touch with Marie Knight. She no longer breeds but should be able to help you. I am pretty sure she still has a website.

@danninyx - I believe that Katie Campbell email you and I that she will respond after she returns from shows this weekend. I believe that she will be able to help in some form...
