AKC Slide Show on Basenjis
The Slide Show
This slide show was put together with great care in a collaboration between the American Kennel Club and the Basenji Club of America in 1983. It is based on the 1954 Basenji Standard. The Standard was revised in 1990 to add the brindle and white color and to update the format. The meaning of the standard was not meant to change. The changes were for clarification and the additional color so that this slide show is still pertinent. Please note: This presentation is intended as an aid for those interested in learning more about the Basenjis. It in no way constitutes a change in the official standard of the Basenji.
The actual slide show is quite long and a very large file so it has been broken into sections for you to view on the screen of your computer.
