BASENJI

History - This barkless dog of Central Africa probably originated thousands of years ago.  Images of similar dogs are seen in Egyptian tomb art.

Temperament - The Basenji is stubborn but very friendly toward family members, most children, and other animals - although it can be aloof with adult strangers. The basenji’s hunting spirit surfaces when it sees cars. To avoid car chasing, this dog must be leashed or fenced in when outside. The basenji does not bark in the typical canine way, but yodels when happy and screams when unhappy.

Upkeep - The basenji sheds minimally and needs very little brushing. A vigorous daily walk or play period with other dogs will make the basenji happy.

Size - height 16-17 inches, weight 21-24 pounds.
