Basenji

The Basenji is a special breed of hunting dog that originates from Africa. Known for their yodel-like yips, the Basenji is truly a stunning breed of dog.

If you are looking to adopt a Basenji, just understand that you need to start training at a young age. As a hunting breed, they are known to be active and wild when not properly exercised and attended to. The Basenji can live to be 14 years old while growing to a weight of 24lbs.
