So many times people post pictures and ask what folks on the forum think about their dogs. Often, the most convincing in appearance turn out disappointingly to not have any Basenji blood. When you think about it, there are not likely all that many crossbreds out there. Most people with an intact Basenji bitch are not looking to cover her with anything but a purebred male, and in North America generally females are spayed because most breeders require it for pet puppies. Bitches that are showing are even less likely to be bred to something outside the breed.
Adopted from the street ..is she a Basenji mix?

pics are from 3 to 5 months old puppy

@Nino87 Well ~ she sure is a cute little girl! All I'm seeing at the moment that reminds me of Basenji are that all 4 feet are white! Looks like she's getting some wrinkles in her for-head but a lot of dogs have wrinkled for-heads! In my opinion, she "might" have a few drops of Basenji in her!! There will be others in this forum that will be able to tell you more about that sweet puppy! Lot's of love, petting, grooming, kisses, talking to her or singing, good food ... that's all they want & it's the best thing they can get ~ especially love!!

Her mannerisms may tell you more than her looks. Certainly her colouring fits. More details would be useful, e.g. does she bark or make other vocalizations? Does she clean herself in a catlike way? Basenjis have some unique traits you don't usually see in other breeds.

Very cute.. basenji-esque. But yeah, vocalizations?
-
Hi folks...sorry it took me this long to reply.
She barks the boof boof style and barks are very rare..and has a long tail(with white spot on top), not lifted like a pure Basenji .
Super fast..keeps up with a whipet in a dog park, seems like she cant get tired at a dog park.
likes people and other dogs very much, licks her paws and streches like a cat...scoping every move i make, looks every single person in the face when we walk
this is her now!!
-
I do think she looks like she has Basenji blood. A DNA test might prove interesting.....sure is a nice looking girl!
-
Whatever she is mixed with, she'a adorable!
-
Sounds like part B to me - anyways, a cute girl and a lot of fun. Enjoy!
