I'm Danielle J., the breeder behind Haus Annandael Basenjis located in Hartford, VA. I am a preservation breeder striving for quality, health, and to ensure the future of the breed for generations to come. Here at Haus Annandael, we are dedicated to the overall well-being of the Basenji breed. All of our dogs live in our home as members of the family. They are treated as pets first and show and breeding dogs second. Health and temperament are at the top of our list along with function. It is an honor to represent this breed!
