My Dog Artimis

Show Off Your Dog
  • this is Bear the Boston/lab and Art Boston/IDK they both have the same mom but are from to different litters with two very different dads

    I think he is part basenji because of his build and curly tail. He also doesn't make any noises at all when playing with over dogs. Some times it can get him into trouble because the other dogs don't know when he's had to much

    he loves to out run much larger dogs to make them feel bad

    But sometimes he isn't the most graceful of dogs

    Please let me know what other types of dog you can see in art.

  • He is very cute, could maybe have some Basenji, but there are many different breeds that have tails that curl over the back. Any of the artic breeds, like Akitas has tails that curl and are built like he is… but all are welcome here

  • What ever the mix, he is a cutie…wow! that is some photo of the 2 dogs snarking.

  • Welcome to the forum, you have two nice Dogs. It's possible Art has some Basenji in him looking at the head shot.

    What a pretty girl! Her head/ears/face & wrinkles are Basenji-looking while her coloring & build suggest some Malanois blood–that would account for her size & aloofness, too. Our local SPCA does genetic testing as a fund-raising thing, if you're really curious you could try something like that...

    The question about the doggy smell is a good one - basenjis do not smell like dogs. If you stick your face right into their fur the comparison is like sticking your face into a nice clean healthy cat - warm and not really a discernable smell. Except their feet. Their feet smell like Fritos sort of.

I leave the sledding to the family when they come to stay! You certainly all look as though you're enjoying yourselves.

    Nexa is full af. and she is very cautious in new situations. She is curious and wants to say hi to every dog or person we see, but if they approach her she will back away. The introductions have to go at her pace. We were on a walk the other day and she was desperate to investigate a cat laying in someone’s driveway. She just stood there staring at the cat from 5-6 feet away, as soon the cat came towards her she tucked her tail and ran like it was a lion after her. The cat might have weighed 8 pounds wet. She is wary, but with her curiosity she just can’t let things go.
