What should I do with my Basenji2007-11-25 2:53:32

Other than that is he bored does he get enough exersize if not he can get frustrated

I would try training but if you go another route make sure they are aware of the problems since anyone adopting him will need to take a lot of time training him

Call Basenji rescue.

There are many Basenji rescues in the US, these are one of the most misunderstood and abanonded breeds.

If you just take him to a shelter and you are honest with why you are leaving him, they will put him down. They don't have the time or resources to deal with aggressive or potentially aggressive dogs - these are destroyed.

It sounds like the dog believes he is in charge. The best of your options would be a Basenji Rescue.why are you talking about "selling" him to a Rescue and that you cannot "afford" it? Rescues I've worked with ask the owner to pay for costs to rehome, but not if the owner cannot afford it. They don't buy dogs ! And they don't sell dogs !!!

Talk to your local Basenji Club or the dog's breeder. A good breeder would want you to talk to them first and would take the dog back.

First, make sure the dog is neutered. There are low cost spay/neuter clinics and some will do it for free. AND have the vet check for any medical reasons for his aggression. Thyroid, vision, etc... If you cannot afford vet bills, why did you have a baby? They are more expensive than a dog.
