Basenji from West Africa

Well hello there, beautiful dog! What's his name? I like the shape of his ears.
-
He looks a lot like Dolce and acts just like her too.
-
Welcome! He's so handsome!
-
Welcome, he's lovely. I think we need to see more pics ;)

that was my exact thought - those lovely, lovely ears.
More pics, please! -
Wow, he is a beautiful dog! His tail is long and straight, so not a basenji trait, but his face looking through the banister is very basenji - whatever he is, he certainly is unique!

I have never heard of an Avuvi until I read it above. I looked it up and was surprised that there was one at the dog park in Marietta, Ga last week. He thought it was a basenji mix since it had a straight up, pointed tail. Next time I see him, I will suggest researching Avuvi. Captmidight, are you still in Northern VA?

I had never heard of an Avuvi until now. He is a local dog from my village which was about 35 miles west from the Ghana Border. I would not be surprised that they are similar. I will try to post some more photos of him later.
Btw, his name is Whala. If anyone is considering an African name for a Basenji puppy, I would recommend Kikuyu (Ki Coo You). Its the Hausa word for puppy.

Wow he is so pretty..I love his picture through the banister.
Thank you so much for sharing. -
Yes, please, more photos. Does your dog bark??
