  1. Aprox. 21-26 pounds and 15-17" inches

    As for cost, It all depends on how much the breeder in your area is selling them for.


  2. dogs can grow up to 43cm

    b*****s up to 40

    not sure about the price though, sorry

  3. Basenji's can vary, but usually mid 20 pounds or so.

    PLEASE, do NOT even consider getting a basenji until you have learned as much as you can about the breed! These pups are NOT for everyone.

    They are not quiet dogs, mine can scream like a banshee when he is upset about something... I have even come home to the police breaking into my home because they think something is dying or being tortured in my home. This is not an uncommon experience for basenji owners.

    They can climb. Anything. Mine has been able to get on top of my fridge via climbing the cabinets. They run across the top of your chairs and sofa. Don't event think of getting them to stop it, it won't work, they do as they please when and where they want. And keeping them in a fence can be a very big challenge if you have a basenji that has a mind to go over it and go exploring, this is how many basenji's meet their demise, they get out and then get hit by a car while chasing some prey down.

    If you have a balcony, be ready to get it screened in. Basenjis have been known to jump right off of them no matter what floor it is on 1st or 11th, makes no difference to them.

    They can and will kill smaller animals. They are prey to them. No rodents in the house and watch them around your (or your neighbor's cats). Mine will not kill our cat, but other cats are clearly prey.

    I want you to go here and read all about them, they are really, really not for everyone...which is why there are so many in rescue:

  4. they are usually 21-26 lbs and 15-17 inches in height.

  5. Look here for more info on your dog breeds

  6. Weight: 21-26 pounds

    Height: 15-17" inches

    It depends on where you plan to get it. If you go through a rescue, it won't be as expensive. If you buy from a breeder, it's going to be more expensive.

  7. I haven't had any problems with my basenji.
