What breed makes a good match with the basenji?

Basenji Talk

  • Just like any other breed, shar pei have breed specific issues, skin really wouldn't be my major worry! If you'll purchase a puppy from a reputable breeder with healthy lines and keep it on natural food+ supplements you certainly can avoid a lot of problems! I don't want to go into specifics on this board but can e-mail you a few links and there's also awesome shar pei forum with knowledgeable folks who can guide newbies.


  • @Thana:

    what about the Manchester terrier?

    They look nice! Especially with erected ears!


  • If you have ever experienced the noise of the Pharaoh, mulitply it bey 1000% when thinking about a Cirneco. GLUG. Cute yes, horrid little monsters though.

    RRs…. fabulous wonderful dogs.


  • We actually have a little bit of everything - a basenji (the second one coming from the breeder in couple of weeks), a one-year-old akita (the basenji and the akita are inseparable), and a 4-month-old boxer. They are just one big happy pack!

    And they dig, dig, dig… and dig more...gggg (Cirneco's).... or so I am told by people that own them.... There are a couple in our area that have been to Lure Trials.... but they are very cute

  • Hi, we have just got our first Basenji, Milo, who is sharing the house with two Rhodesian Ridgebacks. They have got on really well even though Milo is a very active puppy. Both our Ridgebacks, Luke and Kris are so laid back they really just allow Milo to do whatever… We chose the Basenji as they are African hounds and it's nice to keep them from the same continent. I think Basenjis and Ridgebacks are ideal companions. Fab!


  • I of course would recommend the Podengo - the medium or bigger one (I prefer the big smooth which is of course why I have them :) )

    Hanna the Podengo and Sarge the Basenji enjoy each other a lot - rip and tear and run and jump etc etc etc. (except for now when she is in season and with the boy I imported.)

  • I can see nobody has told you about Ridgeback:)))) reat African duo with basenji:D


  • The RR is a bit too big.. Sorry :D
    Although the Paraoh hound is the same size.. I do like them… And the Podengo Medio.. (sorry no Grande.. ;)) is nice as well.

    If I could 'just' add a dog without really considering size etc it would be a Pharaoh hound.. or another b.. :D :D

    My mix is just a little shorter, and there's a similar thread going on here right now. As I say in that one, only DNA can tell you. https://basenjiforums.com/topic/14838/i-know-you-are-tired-of-being-asked/5 -Joanne

    @mvdperez We run the air all the time, keeping it under 70. It's cooling off some so he's fine. She is under the covers because we keep it cold. He goes out early morning, quick midday, then longer in the evening. We keep his coat stripped down. I have no idea if it will get cold enough to get a winter coat. It's not generally COLD here.
  • Which breed is my dog? is he really a basenji?

    I am a musician and I spend a lot of time reviewing music. This means I'll be sitting at my computer, headphones on listening to a song and unaware of the outside world. My girl sunshine knows that when the phone rings, I'm supposed to answer it. So when it rings and I'm on the computer with the headphones on, she'll run up to me and "bark" in her way and jump on me to alert me to the phone. She'll then run ahead of me to the phone and watch me as I answer it. She'll also alert me when the doorbell rings or someone in the household yells for me. This she learned all on her own. Dumb dog? Who are they kidding! (to CBS, here's a major rasberry call just for you! thhhhhhhhhhhhh)
