Adopt A Basenji

The cost to adopt a Basenji from a rescue organization or animal shelter typically ranges from $150 to $600 in the United States. Adopting a Basenji costs much less than buying a puppy from a breeder, which can cost between $800 to $2,500 in the United States but varies based on factors including the breeder’s reputation, the dog’s pedigree, age, and health, and the state or country where you are purchasing the dog.

The easiest way to adopt a Basenji is through a breed-specific rescue organization that specializes in Basenjis. A great place to start is creating a breed search on Adopt a Pet. The search will show you all the available Basenjis in your area.
