• My sister volunteers at the animal shelter in Myrtle Beach & just sent me this picture message:

    He is a Basenji & pittbull mix. The picture isn't very good but she said he looks a lot more basenji in person than in this picture.

    She said he is a sweetheart, loves walks & kissing girls :rolleyes: He is currently in the humane society vs. the pound so he won't be put down but has been here for several weeks [she said she thinks about 4-5 weeks]. He needs his forever home…

    Just thought I would put this out there in case anyone in the area is interested. 🙂 He is certainly a cutie!


  • how precious. i wish i could have another 😞


  • Looks more pit to me? I don't really see the Basenji part

    Yea that's what I said to her but she said she sees more Basenji in person. He has a tight curl tail like a basenji, although I know other breeds have these as well. I said the ears certainly look pit but I guess they told her the coloring is more basenji-esque as well. I don't know. I'll ask her to snap some better pics next time she is there, which I think is this Friday?

    Could be, but there are many breeds and mixes that have the same coloring as a Basenjis… white chest, white feet are pretty common to lots of breeds...
    but I hope he finds a great home


  • Boxers often (usually?) have the same color pattern.

    He is cute 🙂

    I don't know…Keoki's ears look a lot like that when he is uneasy or really chillin' and getting a good butt rub. LOL

    When Nala's ears are like that, I call it "the Flying Nun" position!

    He's cute, whatever he is. I hope he finds his 'forever home".
