Basenji and chow


  • Here is a picture of my sister's silver/black chow and a basenji they encountered at a walk on the beach. My sis said the basenji was just as aloof as her chow, but it kept on looking back to see where his family was. This beach is interesting as almost all of the dogs that go there are purebreds. Unfortunately, my sis did not talk to the basenji's owners - it would have been great to know who his breeders were.

  • Your sisters Chow is lovely, whats s/he called ?


  • Her name is Beatrice (not sure of her pedigree name). We also call her 'Miss Poo' because she acts like her poo doesn't stink - she is a real princess!

    Hi everyone, Thanks for all of your replies! Rex just had his first vet visit (first with me at least), and he was given a clean bill of health. The vet that I saw also agrees with a lot of you that he looks like a Min Pin more than a Basenji, but he is likely still mixed with something because he's a bit too big to be a pure Min Pin. I've looked at a few DNA Dog Breed tests online, and they seem to range in price and in quality. It seems like some of the cheaper (~$50) tests are fake, but they go all the way up to almost $250 for the higher quality ones. Do any of you have experience with these DNA tests / have a brand you found reputable? I'll be sure to post the results of any of the tests with this forum! Thanks again, and Rex is doing really great in his new home!! [image: 1559586518913-img_3707-resized.jpg] [image: 1559586546977-img_3720-resized.jpg] [image: 1559586568474-img_3708-resized.jpg]

    Cara went with Merlin swimming (he has neurological damage so he swims to improve leg placement). She said she doesn't think so. What was funny is she walked to the edge, JUMPED IN... the it was like "Oh No I Didn't!!" [image: 1476634335839-cara-swim-2.jpg]

    After striking out with my first 2 B's I figured I'd give my other love a try! She is wonderful so far, potty training is kicking our butt..as with any puppy. We have only had her a week yesterday so I'm sure this is gonna be fun! She is giving us (my gf and I, our 3 cats and Sid) a run for our money! Sid is very jealous though, which is what we wanted. We need him to desire attention instead of just laying around all day long. Wish us luckkkk with the ol' man.
  • What did your Basenji do for you today?

    Ha! Years ago we had a chow-shepherd mix that would pull my husband around on a bike. Great fun for both of them except for random cat sightings…then the ride got a little scary! :p

    We got Killian from a breeder in Ohio–-Jim Edgerton. That's where he had gotten our previous male basenji. We took Logan and Jasmine to his place and looked at several 1 year olds and a puppies and Jasmine eliminated the others and we agreed with her pick.
