Is Rocko a Basenji Mix?

    Hi everyone!

    I just adopted this beautiful little boy yesterday from a local animal shelter. I named him Rocko after the 90s cartoon Rocko's Modern Life. While I was walking around the shelter various people started throwing breed names at me as for what kind of mix Rocko is but nobody knew for sure. One of the breeds I was told was a Basenji mix of some sort, after looking them up online and thinking about his very quiet nature I thought maybe this fit him. I wasn't entirely sure so I decided to come to the experts that would know, other Basenji owners.

    So, what do you guys think? Is he a Basenji? Does he have Basenji in him? Or do you think he's some other breed?

    @Buddys: Actually, my first B was found running around and was not altered. Always a possibility since the canine need of procreation is pretty darn high up there with food, water, and air…... Oh I'm sure it does happen and will continue to happen but I just don't see it happening as much as rescues claim it happens. I know for a fact some shelters (the one I worked at did!) will label dogs as rarer breeds to get them adopted faster. We had two scruffy "doodle" mix mutts and the animal warden INSISTED they were Wired haired pointing griffons. LOL.

    Look at the BRAT mixes: http://basenjirescue.org/DOGS-MIXES/Default.htm Check out Tia. I think that's what you are looking for. :) Then look at Tyson and Shiloh. Not the right coloring, but similar build and coat….
