I am wondering if my dog is a basenji or a basenji mix? We have had him since he was a puppy and was told he was a pomchi but I don't think he is. What do you all think?

I don't see basenji, but I do see 100 percent cute. :) Yeah, I'd say more Shiba Inu also. I found pics with a lot at or on dining tables... but these pups on grooming tables gives you an idea.
Hi,
Thanks I looked up a Shibu Inu then came across a Pom-Shi and I wonder if he could be that? That dog is a lot like the Basenji . That dog is a Shibu Inu and A Pomeranian. The photo below is the Shi- Pom what do you all think?
Thanks
Jess - why don't you put a proposal to each of the individual clubs that they take a Discover Dogs stand. There are new people in the breed now who may be more interested.
Also I do know that some of the breeds at DD this year had asked for double stands precisely to give space so that dogs could be rested without being crowded in.
It wasn't a case of tired dogs biting but as you know Basenjis object to having strangers pushing into their faces. There are plenty of other breeds who would also object to this. After all I'm sure that nobody would put a dog of bad temperament on the stand. That wouldn't do the breed any good!!
I remember one Crufts when one of the basenjis went for the judge and headlines were 'Biting Basenji'!! You can imagine the uproar and the disservice it did to the breed!
I'm not sure who would ascertain that the information would be accurate though. I do know that some of the info on the club websites is incorrect!!!
My 2 will also find things to "get" my attention if they are not the center of my attention, when I get home.
I hope you can leave yours out when your gone.
it makes things so much easier for everyone.

Hehe. I know…
Well I don't live very close to Bern at all - but YES!! Thank you for owning the Italians last night. :) !! Orange is such a nice colour. =)
Orange is a great colour ;)
I'm glad everything turned out alright. A long time ago I remember hearing that and used it once with Dakota. It's hard NOT to chase after them and run in the opposite direction but it really does work.
We put up a 4 foot wrought iron fence around the front yard. Mine are pretty good about staying in when the door is opened but I would never totally trust them. Hubby did once leave the door and the gate wide open and all three took off down the block. Luckily a neighbor had his dog out and used him as bait to get our three back.
