I'm Rachel H., the breeder behind Flutesong Basenjis II located in Shelby County, AL. I breed for health, conformation, temperament and performance. My Basenjis excel both inside and outside of the ring. My dogs are a very big part of my life and I enjoy participating in a number of sporting events with them. I am passionate about ethical breeding and ensuring the future of this great breed. I look forward to talking with you!

Parent health testing
Breeder-Reported Testing
Good level
Flutesong Basenjis II reports to performing the health tests below on their breeding dogs. Ask your breeder about the tests performed on the parents of your litter. Learn more about health testing for Basenjis.
Hip Dysplasia
Hip testing reduces the chance of passing down hip dysplasia, which is primarily found in large breed dogs and can cause hip pain and the eventual loss of the function of the hip joint.
Elbow Dysplasia Finals (OFA, BVA, SV, FCI)
Elbow testing reduces the chance of passing down elbow dysplasia, which is primarily found in large breed dogs and can cause arthritis in the elbow joint and front leg lameness.
Fanconi Syndrome, PRA, Basenji Type
Genetic testing reduces the chance of passing down a wide variety of hereditary diseases of differing prevalence and severity such as Progressive Retinal Atrophy (an eye disease) and Von Willebrand's Disease (a blood disease).
