Registration papers should be proof, but without DNA confirmation one can never be positive. I know a breeder (in another breed) who was getting old and a bit confused and I am sure some of her pups' parents were not accurately attributed, but the pups were purebred, just possibly from different sire. Coat colour can vary tremendously and it's more likely when it isn't a disqualification in the breed. If you are buying a dog described as purebred then there should be registration papers given to you. A DNA test should tell you whether the dog is Basenji or mixed with something else, if you really want to know.

Here's a Basenji in a Foster and Smith catalog.

I've seen that a bunch…I get the catalogue in the mail and someone posted that on here a while ago.

Nice find.

I saw that the other week too, when I was scouring the catalog looking for at least one B pic..nice.

If I ever got that, I would never be able to get Medjai to use it. He'd just jump straight over it.

Haha! I know, right? I was thinking the exact same thing!

I bought one for my older B Nika when she was 15-1/2 and she wouldn't use it or just couldn't use it. I still have it. Buddy wanted to chew on it.

I'm more tempted to get a cat tree before I get steps. Medjai likes the cat trees at the store if I hold them still. He's a little heavy for those things because they're base is so small.

Shouldn't it read durable enough for basenjis, ha ha
