History

Basenji is a canine breed originating from Central Africa, and more especially from Congo. It takes its name from a pejorative Bantu word meaning "indigenous", "wild" or "primitive",. It is also sometimes called a Nyam-Nyam terrier or a Congo terrier. It is one of the only domestic dogs that does not descend from wolves. We assume he's descended from the jackal.

Basenji is a very old breed, which has existed for thousands of years, even before Cleopatra. Representations of a dog resembling him have been found in several pharaohs' tombs. It seems that this breed only arrived in Europe in the 20th century.

Use :

Hunting dog, companion dog, here he is one of the hounds (race dogs).

In Africa it hunts and lives in packs, it is able to hunt poultry, and also antelopes.

Character :

Don't bark but don't be dumb. His cry, which is very particular to him, comes from the giggling and vocalizations of Tyrolean singers. Remarkable for its cleanliness in every respect. Intelligent, independent but affectionate and active. Can be distant from strangers.

Another characteristic, the female basenji is in heat only once a year (compared to twice a year for most other breeds of dogs) and always in the fall, except except for the puppies are always available either in February or March.

He also has some similarities with the cat since he generally avoids contact with water and cleans himself by licking himself for a long time. In addition, he does not like draughts and wind, he likes heights, he is very good at climbing, he is a very curious dog.

Independent but nevertheless very affectionate, Rather restless, he can adapt to a life in an apartment, but only if he is allowed to exercise very regularly

This breed is not allowed to be free unless it is well obeyed and controlled.
