Following are the photos and information on the fourteen African imports submitted to the Board of Directors of the Basenji Club for approval prior to requesting their inclusion in the American Kennel Club Stud Book for Basenjis. Per letter dated June 29, 1990 from Mr. James P. Crowley to Ms. Shirley J. Jones, these fourteen dogs were registered with the American Kennel Club as foundation stock. At the same time, the A.K.C. also processed several litter applications, with one of these dogs being listed as the sire and/or dam. Mr. Crowley notes that this was a one time accommodation, and they consider the A.K.C. Stud Book for the breed to be again closed to any dogs that do not meet A.K.C. established registration requirements.
