I am pretty sure you can't just look at a mix and declare what it is. Scientific studies have debunked that over and over. Best to do a DNA test, in my opinion. I have a mix who was advertised as a Basenji Mix, and her DNA results confirmed it. If you just looked at her and made a judgement, it would be mixed: her color was all askew, her tail was half-curled, she was smaller and featured more slender face and feet than a pure-bred B.
But, apparently, the 1/4 Min Pin (the ONLY other DNA in her sample) contributed some significant traits. Behavior and personality wise, Basenji rules the day. Again, I recommend a DNA test, and they improve by the day.
What is this other B identity thing that is mentioned in this thread? Is it also a DNA test, or something else?
Oh, and hey, your baby is way cute!

the pup (black one) 1.5 yrs old…... has a water obssesion as the vet likes to call it, cant leave water down anymore for older basenji. but the older one just scratches at kitchen door for water. and the pup gets crated if we go out and the older one has free access to water when dummy (zaar) is in his crate .
-
Nice pups, who did you get them from? I like the Tri (Black,tan,white one)….
What does Zaar do with water that you can't leave if for them?
It might help to post the pictures smaller...??
-
i dont know how to post pics smaller, please help!
zaar will drink water continously forever! so we have to monitor his water intake.
and i got amber the red one from a breeder in massachusettes. and zaar off the internet from a breeder in oklahoma i believe, he came on the plane covered in **** and piss and under weight, tryin to bulk him up so he can look like a beast like amber. not sure names or anything of the breeders my fiance dealt with the breeders.

What website did you transfer these pics from? On Photo Bucket you can resize the pics on their site. Then after you resize them you can post them to the forum.

Very pretty B's, Cairo came from OK.

just found out my tri was from OK as well, a lady named lisa akins, and my red was bought in massachusettes/rhode island boarder , her great grandfather was the only basenji to win westminster in 1989.
