I have decided that as soon as I have the extra money I will do the DNA test. The thing that got me was when I was reading about the Basenji breed. It was like I was reading about Hank. The more I read the more I was saying ok who did a story on my dog. There were a few differences but so many were spot on. He is stubborn as can be and one thing that really stands out is. He loves to have me take his rope toy and I will stand with my legs a bit apart and then tease him by going like around the outside and inside of one leg. Hank will sit there and watch and I swear he is trying to like figure out a pattern or something. He will not just go back and forth like 99% of dogs would. And escape artist is a understatement for Hank. And the list goes on.
A couple up-to-date photos of my year old boy.

Thought I'd show a couple up to date pics of my boy Cairo. Haven't shown any in awhile.
Took him for a walk at one of the local baseball fields today and he Houdinied his way out of his harness. Gave me quite a scare, but I chased him down and caught him. He just "bee-bopped" his way across the street as if to think, "I got loose, now see if u can catch me".

What an adorable dog, and I like the angelic pose, lol…. my Lola will escape on me, too, and while my heart is beating a million beats per minute, I find it hard to play it "cool" so that she doesn't run even farther away in the other direction!

Good pics! Oh yes, such an angel face would never do anything wrong or inconvenient for his parents!

Thank you. I know all about million beats a minute.

Yeah really, he loves to give the "I'm just an innocent Basenji" face. Then he turns into Hell Boy and rips the stuffing out of the couch pillows. All because I wasn't giving him 100% of my attention for a second. I wouldn't trade him for the world.

Cairo is a great looking boy! I hate those Houdini moments.

He is such ahandsome boy and I'm sure makes up for that heart stopping moment!
