I grew up with these dogs, and raised my own children with them as well. They CAN be "aloof" on some occasions, such as when they are with people they dont know, if they dont want to have to do something they know they are going to be asked to do, etc.however, this is not a constant and defining trait, and being independent, does not mean unloving or affectionate. They are very loving and and make great family dogs but, they ARE more likely to eat your slippers than bring them to you! (grin)
My basnenji is almost identical to the ones in this video. VERY independent, strong willed, cant bark, so on and so forth. Only think is we cant seem to house break her like our other dogs. Weve tried EVERYTHING we can think of.
There is no group of people that calls themselves "pygmies". And they aren't the only people that have groomed and breeded those dogs in West/Central Africa either.

OMG, Calm, Quiet companion??? Hilarious. They are anything but calm and quiet.

"This dog doesn't bark"... I have s basenji... he won't shut up... but he's adorable!!
Everything has its own reason. Though Basemji's dont bark, they have other unique qualities which are awesome :)
Wow! Training a stubborn independent dog to understand sign language! That is very impressive!
My basenji has all of these qualities, except he barks ferociously, and doesn't yodel.
Maybe it's the other breeds he's mixed with?

Dog that sound like chicken
Check out my basengi dogs on my channel!
If you work out your basenji will it get buff like a pit?
Why would you want it to get "buff like a pit"??? The answer is NO.
No they are hounds.
Throughout many of these videos I hear "reputable dealer", which means FUCK ALL. Give us NAMES of reputable dealers or shut up about it.
If you are looking for a reputable breeder for Basenjis I would suggest going to the Basenji Club of Americas website they are listed there.
