My undergraduate degree was in geophysics with a minor in applied math. I name all my Basenjis after Indian mathematicians. My current Basenjis are Madhava of Sangamagrama (Madhava for short) and Bramagupta (Bramagupta for short). They do respond to their "short" names.
Basenji Shiba mix: Does anyone think that my dog might be that?

A Shiba Inu looks a lot like Basenji with a fluffy coat and wider head. The behavior is also similar. Because of the floppy ears, which you wouldn't normally see on either a Shibu or a Basenji, I'd say not a Basenji mix. That's just a guess. If it matters a DNA test doesn't cost a lot and is going to be more accurate than anyone's guess.

To be entirely honest, I can't see either Basenji or Shiba in this little dog. Does it matter though ? Just love her to distraction !
