Is Rocko a Basenji Mix?

    Hi everyone!

    Yesterday I got the honor of adopting this little beautiful boy from a local animal shelter. They really weren't sure what he was exactly breed-wise but people kept throwing breeds at me that they guessed he was and I was looking them up online. One of the ones that really struck me as similar to him (especially because of the wrinkles on his forehead and his extremely quiet nature) was the Basenji. So I decided to look up a Basenji forum because you guys are obviously the experts on the breed ;D

    What do you guys think? Is Rocko part Basenji?

    OMG soooo cute. Her colouring and face don't look like a basenji, but maybe she's mixed with something with stronger genes. Do a DNA test. That would be fun!

    @DebraDownSouth He's generally extremely quiet but he does yap(more like a small dog bark) at certain individuals.

    @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.

    I have a Basenji mix, Jersey. Does anyone know what she could be mixed with?

    I could see a B in her face. I agree with the shepard cross. :)
