Hey okay so this is wild but I figured I wanted to reach out! So I rescued my pup and his siblings from Puerto Rico after hurricane Maria and we have always wondered his breed. We know his mom is a chihuahua mix but it wasn’t until today that I realized he might be mixed with Basenji. I came across your post because we were trying to see if Basenji’s were even in PR. Do you know what city your little guy was picked up in?
Mix Basenjis

Does anyone on this forum have a Basenji/German Shepard mix. My son wants a dog, loves Basenjis but has always wanted a German Shepard.

I do! We just adopted her a couple months ago. She looks a little more GS though. She does have the ears and some wrinkles and her tail does curl quite a bit when it is up, but she is a lot bigger and weighs about 50 pounds. Unfortunately she does bark though, and a lot! I think she is very pretty though, and I am quite happy with her. I only hope she adopts the obedience that germans are famous for! She is comming around though. When I was looking for a rescue I did see a few other B/GS mixes also, so you might have some luck finding one. We feel in love with her because I wanted another B, but DH has always wanted a GS, so she was the perfect compromise! I know there is at least one other member with one too. Here is a couple pics of her and my other B.

Look at the BRAT mixes:

Check out Tia. I think that's what you are looking for.
Then look at Tyson and Shiloh. Not the right coloring, but similar build and coat….
