This year, we bred Breeze, Suddanly Apex Fresh Air, FCh to Teddy, DC Sunbird Suddanly Stetson, FCh, SC. both Breeze and Teddy were tested clear of Fanconi Syndrome with the direct gene test. Both parents' eyes tested normal. Teddy is a happy healthy 9 years old. Breeze is 3. Both are very sweet and compliant--for basenjis. You can see pictures of the parents on other pages of the website.
On December 2, Breeze presented us with 5 red and white boys. There are 2 boys still looking for forever homes.
Unlike other breeds of dogs, basenjis have a breeding season, and all the litters are born in the winter, usually in November, December or January.
When we plan a breeding, the parents are carefully chosen for health, temperament and conformation. Their pedigrees are studied for qualities and possible problems for many generations. We strive to produce basenjis that will not only make wonderful pets, but that will be a asset to the breed.
All our basenjis are health tested and clear of genetic diseases. For more information on inherited diseases in basenjis, please visit the Basenji Club of America website on the LINKS page.
All pet puppies are sold on limited registration with a spay-neuter contract and life-time health guarantee for $900.00. Show puppy contracts will be discussed on an individual basis. Health information on all the parents is available upon request.
Most Suddanly pups are sold before they are weaned. If you are interested, in providing a loving and exceptional home for one of our future puppies, please contact us. You are also welcome to come visit. Call or write and we will set up a time.
We do not allow any perspective buyers to reserve a specific puppy. All the puppies will be evaluated at 7 or 8 weeks. The show quality puppies will be determined at that time. The pet puppies will be matched with their future owners with consideration to the future owners' preferences for sex and color. More importantly, the personality of the pup will will be matched with the needs and personality of the perspective owner.

OTHER POSSIBILITIES
Not all households can take the time needed to raise a puppy. Frequently, we have adults that are already housebroken and crate trained available. If you would like a basenji, but find the idea of raising a very active puppy daunting, check the SEEKING HOMES page for some "golden opportunities".
