Not a basenji, but…

    I joined about a month ago and I am so very glad that I did. I love reading all of the informative information everyone on here has to provide and even though my issue is still on going I refuse to give up hope. I just recently brought a new edition into my home and although she is not a basenji I know everyone will still appreciate her cuteness! I attempted to join a frenchie forum but upon reading posts and what not I just find this one to be way more 'home-y'. Having that said I may be here to stay with my one basenji, one frenchie, 2 himalayans and an alpha female tiger cat! Hope you enjoy the pics and hopefully be able to help with puppy questions soon!

    She is a cutie. Next to Bs I think I love the bull dogs.

    I know what you mean about other forums when my sons dog was here I joined a lab forum but I just couldnt get into it. I figured it was because my true love is for the Bs but as you mentioned this forum just seem so much more homey and welcoming. I would also say people seem more helpful here.

    of course I'm comfortable

    Thank you for all of your comments! Yes, I actually joined 2 of them, earlier in the week. One of them just now sent me my activation email and the other one, the most recent post was like last week! I would absolutely die if I posted something and had to wait a week to hear back something! And Patty, yes that is her forever coat. Her ear will continue to get more prominent like the Bs too:)

    She is an adorable little thing! French Bulldogs always peak my curiosity when I see them. They look like they have tons of character.

    After striking out with my first 2 B's I figured I'd give my other love a try! She is wonderful so far, potty training is kicking our butt..as with any puppy. We have only had her a week yesterday so I'm sure this is gonna be fun! She is giving us (my gf and I, our 3 cats and Sid) a run for our money! Sid is very jealous though, which is what we wanted. We need him to desire attention instead of just laying around all day long. Wish us luckkkk with the ol' man.

    Hi everyone, Thanks for all of your replies! Rex just had his first vet visit (first with me at least), and he was given a clean bill of health. The vet that I saw also agrees with a lot of you that he looks like a Min Pin more than a Basenji, but he is likely still mixed with something because he's a bit too big to be a pure Min Pin. I've looked at a few DNA Dog Breed tests online, and they seem to range in price and in quality. It seems like some of the cheaper (~$50) tests are fake, but they go all the way up to almost $250 for the higher quality ones. Do any of you have experience with these DNA tests / have a brand you found reputable? I'll be sure to post the results of any of the tests with this forum! Thanks again, and Rex is doing really great in his new home!! [image: 1559586518913-img_3707-resized.jpg] [image: 1559586546977-img_3720-resized.jpg] [image: 1559586568474-img_3708-resized.jpg]

    No idea, sometimes with mixes it's so hard to tell what the parentage is. I do think that your dog's head is a bit more refined than many of the pit mixes i've seen.

    I might be inclined to believe foxhound if he didn't weigh less than 40 lbs. That And neither a lab or a foxhound have a tail that goes straight up and curls over the back. Whippet is a possibility, but again that doesn't explain the tail curling over the back. Granted his tail is longer and not as bushy as a pure Basenj, but then he isn't pure Basenji. Pugs have a wrinkled forehead and a curled tail, but he has the longer neck and a gait more like a sight hound, and his coat is shorter but not the double coat of a lab, so I am kind of ruling out pug. He may be a big pile of mixes from parents who were mixed. I don't really care what breed he is, he is a great dog. I think I am right on basenji, but if not, it's no big deal. And no he hasn't chewed my underwear. He did chew on the couch cushion where I usually sit.

    Thank you very much for the info. I will have to try the time out. He was crate trained as far as being house broken, but now when I put brownie in the crate all he does is whine.. I do have 2 older dogs. one that plays with him and the other, well he just growls at brownie. The mother that was there when I got Brownie was a white shepard, maybe that is where the broad nose comes in.
