Summary
About Basenji
Basenji: small, athletic African hound, 40–43 cm and 9–12 kg, with short coat, curled tail and wrinkled forehead. Often “barkless,” it yodels instead. Clean, independent, intelligent and strong-willed, it needs patient positive training, secure fencing, and regular mental and physical exercise.
About Magyar Agar
Ancient Hungarian sighthound built for endurance hunting, with a lean, rugged, athletic body and short, low‑maintenance coat in many colors. Calm, gentle, and reserved at home but needs substantial daily exercise. Strong prey drive requires secure areas and thoughtful management.
