I am pretty sure you can't just look at a mix and declare what it is. Scientific studies have debunked that over and over. Best to do a DNA test, in my opinion. I have a mix who was advertised as a Basenji Mix, and her DNA results confirmed it. If you just looked at her and made a judgement, it would be mixed: her color was all askew, her tail was half-curled, she was smaller and featured more slender face and feet than a pure-bred B.
But, apparently, the 1/4 Min Pin (the ONLY other DNA in her sample) contributed some significant traits. Behavior and personality wise, Basenji rules the day. Again, I recommend a DNA test, and they improve by the day.
What is this other B identity thing that is mentioned in this thread? Is it also a DNA test, or something else?
Oh, and hey, your baby is way cute!
Great Weekend at the DFW Basenjis specialty.

Friday was the specialty and Ciarra Cassell expertly handled Tempest to BOS over 11 Bitches, including 5 specials. I enjoyed showing Gambit even if we were only in the sweeps ribbons that day. Tempest won a lovely framed papyrus, can't wait for the show photo to arrive. Saturday was Gambits day, she went Select. Sunday Tempest did it again picking up BOS. A lovely weekend with friends and the girls earned three 4 pt majors between them. Time for a nice break till memorial day. Back to Bunny time in April to try to finish both DC's before the heat of summer sets in.
