@katoman Hey, you should really try to relax some! You jump to the defensive all the time!! This is a forum......it's for everyone to voice their opinion!! You're not on trial here! It's really pretty interesting when a bunch of people start voicing their idea's & opinions! You're not going to get sue'd because you bred your dogs (at least not by any of us & doubtfully by the folks who bought the pups!). I bet there's a happy guy in there some where ~ let him out for awhile! Okay? It's easy to get along with most everyone here!!
Would anyone happen to know what my Basenji mixed with?

In may, Me and my long time girlfriend adopted the perfect dog from the local animal shelter, and the shelter told us she was a Basenji, but didn't know what she was mixed with. My guess is Jack Russell Terrier, but I can't be sure. Thank you for your help!

Izzy has a friend (a rat terrier) who is a super-cute, intelligent, and energetic and he bears a strong resemblance to your baby. He exhibits many of the same characteristics as the Jack Russel. Being a terrier, he is a VERY busy dog. LOL
Whatever her heritage may be, she is adorable.

I'm just curious, well that and tardy in reply to your original post, does your/do any/most basenji mixes share the "barkless-dog" trait(s) with those of the pure bred basenji?
-
To me, looks like a Chihuahua mix
-
jeffreycin, note that Basenjis can and do bark… they just don't bark none stop like other breeders. Mostly one or two at a time
-
Tanza, thanks for the information/clarification. I do realize that Basenjis do indeed bark and as you've stated it's noticeably. ..different from most/all breeds.
I specifically meant to query if Basenji mixes are vocally similar, in a general sense. -
Oh the pain of your question and my answer.
Sobbing. I have 2 basenji… neither of them yodel. Arwen doesn't even do the basenji BOOF (though she does make demonic noises when annoyed). Cara is great at boof boof noise, and she DOES the yawning noises.
But there is a scumball in FL breeding basenjis with probably corgis.. at any rate, producing "low riders"... bodies like basenjis but dwarfed legs. They yodel their freaking heads off. Sniff sniff. They boof. And I know a lot of other mixes that indeed do not dog bark, but make all the basenji noises.
