Another possibility might be Rat Terrier. They do come in brindle, although that colour is out of favour. There is one in my neighbourhood that has a bit of a Basenji look to him, and his tail is very short.......not sure if it's natural or docked.
That little guy is soooo adorable! I just love it when Bs 'wag' their tails…... love the markings on him-too funny the you-tube next to all that space stuff! Good luck with Hubble!
