People post mixes here and on Facebook all the time thinking the are a basenji or a mix.. This one is one of the few that really might be! She's probably mixed but I have seen purebred capped basenjis and ones with heavy ticking. A dna test would be interesting!
Her ears look a bit more rat terrier than basenji and the breeds have such a similar look that they get mistaken for each other a lot. I have a friend with a red/white standard rat terrier (show dog) who had a docked tail and is constantly mistaken for a basenji.

Hello everyone I new here. I am a very proud mama of a 1.5 yr old tricolored basenji girl "kiro". we live in Westminster, just moved from Baltimore.
We still haven't meet any other basenjis in our area I always feel bad that kiro doesn't have a playmate. and i don't have anyone to discuss my baby gurls habits with .
So this forum is perfect for us! We are actually looking into adopting another B boy for kiro now that i have a lot more space.

Hi Kiro,
Welcome our neck of the woods. I live just a bit past Emmittsburg in PA so I'm not too far. The Mid-Atlantic Basenji Club meets at the Carroll County Agricultural Center right there in Westminster. Our next meeting is 1 June and there will also be a spring fun match that same day. It starts at 0900. There is a Yahoo group for the club that has info about the event. It's fun and games. It's really neat to see so many basenjis in one place. Hope you can make it. It's a nice club to belong to.
