New to the Forum/pretty sure my rescue is part Basenji-

Member Introductions
  • Hi! My name is Angie E. I'm a mother of 3 beautiful kids, a pug-named Brutis and a Pitbull, Corgi, (and we think) Basenji mix- named Reesie. She doesn't "YODEL" ,but when she does bark she almost looks like shes trying to "pucker" her lips up and she'll do this growl thing. She grooms like a cat- both herself and the pug. She nibbles his fur with her front teeth like shes "FLEAING" him. And can leap picnic in a single glide! The Basenji breed is virtually unheard of where we live in Jeffersonville, Indiana. Hopefully, I can gain some insight through the forum and get some reassurance that our Reesie is ,in fact, the Basenji that we've ruled her out to be!! I look forward to meeting some new friends and talking to everyone!!

    I have her photos up under an album on my account and in the Basenji Mix Group! I'm just figuring the site out. I'll try to get them over here!! I can't wait until I get input on her either way! Anytime anyone comes to our door, I get 2 questions. #1.) Does "IT" bite? ( grrr!) "Um, no, She doesn't" and then #2.) Oh, well then, " What is "IT"?

    Finally figured out how to post them!

  • Finally got her photos up where I needed them! i am sooo excited and can't WAIT to start hearing feed back!!!

  • Hi Angie,
    She does look like a Brindle Basenji. Also i think Basenji's eyes look like they are wearing eyeliner. Hope you and your family are enjoying her and the many wonders of the Basenji breed.

    Okay he's cute, I certainly wouldn't be surprised if a mix... but without a DNA test, no way to really tell. Barking... well basenjis bark, but for most it is a single Boof.. pause... booof. Not the bow wow wow rhythm of other dogs. Oh shedding... they shed but nothing like my other breeds. We get a shed out in early summer. Otherwise, unless sick, not much shedding. I have only had 3 basenjis... they all hated water, one so much that getting her to potty if the ground is we is a serious issue.

    Thank you for the welcome. @Patty: Welcome to the forum. Is Chumley chihuahua sized? He's sort of in-between sized. He's gained a few pounds since I got him, he needed some weight on. He's now 12 pounds, 11 1/2 inches tall at the shoulder. I put pics up in the Show Off Your Dog forum http://www.basenjiforums.com/showthread.php?12666-My-Chumley-Basenji-chi-mix
