People post mixes here and on Facebook all the time thinking the are a basenji or a mix.. This one is one of the few that really might be! She's probably mixed but I have seen purebred capped basenjis and ones with heavy ticking. A dna test would be interesting!
Her ears look a bit more rat terrier than basenji and the breeds have such a similar look that they get mistaken for each other a lot. I have a friend with a red/white standard rat terrier (show dog) who had a docked tail and is constantly mistaken for a basenji.
Hello from Brisbane, QLD

Sounds like a typical Basenji… Welcome to the Forum. Many of us have related Basenjis here, who did you get her from?
-
She is from Townsville. Lovely dog and couldn't live without her.

Welcome, Asha sounds lovely..

Welcome to the forum!

Welcome to the forum

hi Katherine and Asha - you'll love this forum. Lots of great information and fun talk.
-
Welcome to the Forum from the UK - Asha is lovely - I always have a preference for a 'plain' face Basenji ( by 'plain' I mean little white by the way).
I know the flashy ones are more striking in the ring but if a judge can't see past that, what the matter.Please let's have more pictures.

From what you said in your first post, Asha, (LOOOOOOVE that name :)), sounds just like a typical mischeivious B, through and through...

When the Breeder contacted us she said that she was "plane jane" in a way. Ashas face is adorable and full of expression she has one dot of white on the back of her neck instead of the whole ring.

Hey,

I got my 3, (yes I have become a real Basenji trajic now ;)), from Kylie Delacourt, in NSW, Wazazi Kennels… Couldnt be happier with them. I adore this breed, and will never be without one again...

Sounds very familiar
-
Asha is lovely. One of my favorite basenjis (from years ago) was like her, almost no white but for a little blaze on the back of the neck. More pics, please!!!
