Chihuahua? Not even!!!!
-
Shango ALWAYS gets mistaken for a Jack Russel. I'm like, Nope. Not a terrier- he's actually quiet! ;-)
-
My cousin has a Chihuahua mix (found her in a parking lot i believe), looks JUST like Mia when she was a puppy. I showed her a pic and the resemblence was rediculous. Chihuahuas are all different though, not all look like rats. I'd say a really young B pup might look like one but definately not one older than 6 months or so.
-
Only happened once someone asked if Maya was a pure bred chihuahua I was so dumbfounded did not even know what to say! :eek:
-
I've noticed b/w basenjis seem to really throw people off since I've gotten one. Someone at PetSmart asked if Zoni was an australian sheperd puppy! :eek: Otherwise, I usually get Shiba Inu with Nemo which is at least more similar than Chihuahua. And the local shelter even listed a basenji as a Shiba Inu one time. Uhmmm, no.
-
Has anyone gotten this one before???
Is that a Corgi Mix?!?!?!?!!:rolleyes:
-
Actually, if you look at pics of the Corgi's and Basenji's newborns… they do favor each other. If only those Corgis would grow into their legs, LOL!!!;)

So far the people who have asked me about Shaye simply ask me what kind she is because they never saw one like her before. There are a whole lot of people who are more informed now than they ever were, and many have asked me where they can get one because she looks so great - like all her kind - I refer them to BRAT.

same here, shaye's mom–most people just ask what my girls are because they've never seen a dog look like them before....

Numerous times I had my 2 out for walks and people asked if they were Chihuahua or Fox terrier. "Basenji"?? It was always great to educate them especially when they at first would say "it's clean, doesn't bark and is the perfect size for my elderly mother who lives in an apartment". "Oh no no no, there's more to it than that".
