What should I do with my Basenji

I am at wits end with my Basenji. I love the little booger but he's become aggressive and I am not going to risk letting my newborn get bit!

What should I do? Should I put an add in the paper, turn him into the humane society, or sell him to a basenji rescue. The obvious answer is the rescue but I can't afford it being a new parent. Do you think he is alost cause if he's biting?

When he bites it's usually really for no reason. For example, last night he was sleeping on my lap and I was rubbing his head; 5 min later the turd attacked me. This isn't the first time and I am well aware to not startle them from behind... He's just crazy every rare occasion.

Anyone's advice would be helpful. I just don't know if he's going to get put to sleep (I really hope not) or if there is a chance someone would be willing to put up with him. 90% of the time he is a perfect sweet angel.

If you are fearful of your child around this dog make the right decision. There are plenty of great dogs dying everyday in the shelter. Unless you or someone can commit to working with this dog on behavior modification you have to do the right thinga to make sure he doesn't have a chance to bite anyone.

What if you let him go to someone that says they can handle it and then when your child is three playing in the front yard he shows up and your child still gets bit. Think ahead for the safety of others. If its not your own child it could be another.
