    Adopted a new Basenji Mix - but is he actually a Basenji?

    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]

    He looks right at home! Congrats! :) I wouldn't worry about him being a try-ing Basenji….yet. Paco's a tri and he's an absolute angel as long as he's been walked. ;)

    @basenjimamma There is nothing quite as dog-friendly as a Volvo Estate for transporting Basenjis ! Mine have always ridden to shows in them - two large crates can accommodate 6 Basenjis in comfort. I am on my 5th, I think - could be my 6th. The last one did 216,000 miles. That was the square tank-like version. The current 10 year old V70 is overall broader, but without so much space inside, which means a single crate is all it will take. But it is enough for my age-depleted pack.

    Yes, I know Barkless dog…They do the most worst thing [chew paper, garbage digging and just destroying my home like a tornado was there for 2 hours] I agree it's part of the allure to them, they don't just accept every person they meet, but must get to know you. It's like you have to earn their respect, and part of there charm is they are not perfect little animals. They can bring great amounts of anger, misstrust, fear, embarassment, humor & above all love from human owners. Why do my dogs allways insist on pooping at the worst times, like when a crazy dog is in some ones house- going crazy at the window or in front of a group of people. One time they went potty in front of a crazy dog in a house that was on the second floor, the dog blew the whole screen out of the frame! Next thing you hear lady screaming at the dog!
