@misterbigg:

how did you go about finding your dog?

I went about finding her in the "wrong way"… a pet store:( Long story, she was a gift from my husband for my birthday. I don't promote pet store puppies now that I know more about them. That is why I suggest BRAT, or a very reputable breeder! By the way, I hope you have a extremely keen sense of humor... the Basenji requires it!!! LOL:D

[misterbigg]

So it seems I think I have found one.

Princeton WV at mercer animal shelter… They believe it is a besanji/mix breed

hes 4-1/2 months or around that according to them..

what do you guys think?

[tanza]

I would think more of a Jack or Parson Russell Terrier and/or Rat Terrier…. but very cute...

[Schouiffy]

well..
I do know of the CUTEST little B mix - it doesn't sound like he barks either
in VA

He is sooo adorable, and seems like a super great boy from what the shelter says. If lived in the states I would snag him up! maybe you could give him a great home?

[tanza]

He is very cute, but doesn't really look like a Basenji mix… more like a
Shar-pei mix, particularly by the shape of the face.... but very cute

[sharronhurlbut]

Very cute pup…I am looking forward to seeing the photos when he is grown up.

[misterbigg]

I do not think she is a basenji mix, I went and got her today and she is beautiful although she doesnt mark she only whines…

Shes very hyper not sure but I am very happy right now with her...

here is another picture..

[sharronhurlbut]

oh, she is very, very cute.
Let us know how it goes with her.

[misterbigg]

I will i got her from the human society i wonder if she is part basenji… she looks it and sqeels instead of barkes... has yet to bark once in 4 hours since weve had her..

[myran]

A cute little pup but she looks like she needs to put on some weight and if they didn´t deworm her then that too.Good luck with the littleone:)

[misterbigg]

she is very tall… she needs dewormed and spayed getting that done this weekend... She has her rabies since she was picked from the pound..

[sharronhurlbut]

She should fill out once on a good quality food and with lots of love.
Glad she found you.

[misterbigg]

So am I and after taking her to the vet today seems we think we have come up with type of breed she is…

We believe she is a pitbull beagle mix...

here are some reference pics what do you think...?

heres sophie again

and here are pitbull beagle mixes…

What do you guys think…???

For about $70, you can get a DNA test and know for sure! She could be a Beagle-Pit mix, those you show are all pretty cute too. She is darling, whatever she is!

She's a cutie. Doesn't look like pit or beagle to me, and not exactly basenji either, but with the long legs and brindle coat she could have some greyhound or whippet in her (hard to tell without a pic of her standing), or maybe even boxer?

What kind of test is this? never heard of it… Where can i get it done?

I would like to know some more information!!

[Janneke]

Welcome to the forum and I think that puppy looks very very very cute!!!
What's her name?

[MacPack]

I saw the DNA kit in an Orvis for Dogs catalogue (you can't spend more money for a dog than with Orvis!) and in at least one other as well. I'm sure you can find one via the internet! Good luck,.
