Basenjis are curious, energetic, and clean dogs, often compared to cats for their grooming habits and self-sufficiency. Perfect for active individuals or families, the Basenji is a playful, affectionate companion that will keep you entertained with its quirky personality and quiet nature. If you're looking for a dog that’s both unique and full of life, the Basenji is a fantastic choice!
