Your baby looks exactly like my "Harry" who I had to put down this past Monday. He had all characteristics of a Basenji, tho I am pretty sure he was a rat terrier/basenji mix. (I wrote about him a few years back on this link:
https://basenjiforums.com/topic/15001/more-tales-about-harry-the-autistic-basenji-mix
We had him from about 8 weeks old until may 15th at 7:30 am.
What a crazy guy. Handsome as all get out. (I always told him that if there was such a magazine as "Handsome Dog magazine", he would be on every cover. I think the reason I am so heartbroken is that he was so hard to bond with and my wife and I took care of him almost like one takes care of an autistic child.
Well, I know this is 4 years late...but I am sorry for your loss and hope you found another like your beloved baby.
This is a pic of Harry after he lost over 20 lbs because of kidney disease.

My JRT's look like Basenji's lol
-
(don't take this statement too seriously)
-
They are awfully cute though! The one on the right looks like my sister's Jack (yeah, that's his name - unique, right???)
-
Haha well mine are Poppy and Rasco
-
B's with droopy ears! I got that a lot at the dog park….umm is your dog a jack russell??? NO its a Basenji!
-
Poppy and Rasco are very cute. We do get asked if our Basenjis are JR, we have even been asked if they're Tibetan Spaniels
-
I also got asked if they were Shiba Inu's…... I mean you take off the hair and they are close!
-
Lol, plus mine gaze out the window and lick themselves for ages.
-
I also get the "jack Russell" comment a lot….mind you Oakley has the biggest tallest ears ever!!!!! So it's a little bit of an odd question
-
They are adorable
Watson always gets identified as some sort of terrier. He has been a rat terrier and a toy fox terrier…
