@pawla All three of mine loved tissues, especially as puppy’s, used or fresh lol. My latest dog, Bandit, used to grab the end of the toilet roll and unravel about 30 feet of it around the house.
Basenji maybe?

This one showed up in my backyard one day (gate was left open) & came into house via doggie door. I think she is at least a Basenji mix - seems to have a lot of the behavior traits. Yodels, weird almost bark-esq when super excited. Displays hunter instincts when playing. Has a gazelle-spring like leap. And if it’s on a counter & within stand/reach distance - it’s fair game. Waiting on DNA results now. Any thoughts on possible mix?
-
How big is she? How much does she weigh? Would like to see a picture of her standing up....
-
She’s about 23lbs, approximately 16” at the shoulder. Est age about 2ish. Best pic I could get of her standing. Her tail curves (sickle) rather than curls.
-
Definately see BASENJI in her!
-
@sandiedfw very curious to see what your test results show! my rescue dog looks very similar!
-
Embarkvet said results will be ready early April. In the meantime- I have a tall, smart lapdog to manage. Thankfully, my other dogs are dachshunds & am used to independent (stubborn) thinkers and the challenge of training them.
-
She is certainly full of personality
-
She is gorgeous and a keeper! She looks like she has lots of Basenji in her but I do not know what the rest of her could be!

@sandiedfw
She is a CUTIE! Glad to hear you have experience w/ STUBBORN dogs - because Basenji's are definately STUBBORN! Lol -
Just received the DNA results from Embarkvet.com - not a drop of Basenji in Lucy's gene pool. She is 46% Pit, 23% Min Pin, 7% Chow, 6% Siberian Husky, 6% Rottweiler, 6% Boston terrier & 6% supermutt. Even though she's not in the Basenji gene pool, this is a great forum as she seems to have a number of B traits & behaviors. I find all of the advice helpful. Thanks everyone for your input!
