 If you only buy one book on Basenjis, this should be it! March 15, 2000
7 out of 8 found this review helpful
Most breed books these days seem to cater to the breeder-wannabe and the show person, forgetting that most of us out there are looking for a dog as a companion! This book goes the extra mile, showing Basenjis (a wonderful breed) exactly as they are, and it really does answer questions that most of us do have about the breed. Rescue is a wonderful way to find your next best friend, and anyone looking to add a Basenji to their life must read "The Secondhand Basenji Handbook!" The authors have done an excellent job with this book!
You can't find a better book on real-life with Basenjis! March 2, 2000

I wish this book had been available when I purchased my Basenji Rita eight years ago! Even though my Basenji is not a rescue, I still bought the book because it looked interesting, and it was that and more. Theres lots of neat pictures of Basenjis the way they are at home, and I could see my dog doing many of the things the dogs in this book were doing! I recomend this book if you have a Basenji or if you are thinking you might like to own one. Your dog doesn't have to be "rescued" for you to learn alot from this book.
The best book on Basenjis you will ever own! February 27, 2000

I purchased this book because I was interested in finding out more about Basenji rescues. I found that other books I'd read were geared more toward people who wanted to show and breed their dogs. This book is written expressely for the person who simply wants a Basenji to enjoy as a pet. It will tell you just about anything you really want to (and need to) know about the breed, will give you real-world advice about living with a Basenji, and you will find the answers to all of your Basenji questions here. I really do recommend that, if you are looking for a Basenji or are interested in rescuing one, that you buy this book. I find myself coming back to it again and again whenever I have a question about my Basenji. The book also has lots and lots of fantastic pictures of Basenjis in it. I ended up adopting my dog from a rescue club in my town. They recommended the book, and I do too!
