Written by animal specialists, veterinarians, and trainers, the titles in this series focus on pets of all kinds?different dog and cat breeds, birds, fish, reptiles, small animals, yard animals, and even exotic pets.

  Basenjis (Complete Pet owners' manual) July 28, 2008 Well done! All that you need to know about raising, training and loving your Basenji.
  Cute pictures, but not a lot of material February 17, 2008 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
I bought the book to learn training techniques specific to a Basenji, and the book failed on that account. However, the book gets 2 stars because it gives a great description of the history of Basenji's, and their personalities. I found the book is better suited for you friends and family (that don't live with you), to explain why your Basenji acts so "weird"... but as for training ideas, don't waste your time/money.
  A must for Basenji owners! February 13, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Although it is an older book, the tips in it are still extremely useful today. Not only does it give a shortened yet vivid history of the breed but also has vital tips for training. I have begun training my basenji puppy from the steps outlined in this book and he was been doing wonderfully! The pictures are also a really great addition. If you own, are planning to own, or even thinking of owning a basenji be sure to get this book so you know what you're getting into with this unique breed & how to deal after you get one!
  oustanding book September 26, 2007 I was very anxious to receive my book on Bansenji's. We have a one year old Bansenji named Sadie....she is completely different than any dog we have ever had....very sweet....but also very stubborn.....the book was very helpful in learning more about this breed of dog....very useful in training her and myself. i would recommend this book to anyone who has a basenji or are thinking of getting one....lots of very helpful, useful suggestions and great photos as well.

  a surprising find March 8, 2007 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This book, although small is jam packed with the greatest information for basenji owners. It is a great way to introduce the basenji to prospective owners and makes an affordable gift to send home with puppies and their new owners.
