Just received the DNA results from Embarkvet.com - not a drop of Basenji in Lucy's gene pool. She is 46% Pit, 23% Min Pin, 7% Chow, 6% Siberian Husky, 6% Rottweiler, 6% Boston terrier & 6% supermutt. Even though she's not in the Basenji gene pool, this is a great forum as she seems to have a number of B traits & behaviors. I find all of the advice helpful. Thanks everyone for your input!
Roxy - Basenji x Border Collie (allegedly).

Gorgeous Roxy
I love the second to last pic, where she's catching the ball - great expression!
-
Roxy is beautiful. You can never post to many pictures thank you for sharing. I like the kitchen chair one like ok dinner time.

She's a great looking dog!! Does she bark and how much does she weigh?
-
She is lovely Nicola - and what an ideal mix - a basenji that does what its told! Where bouts in Scotland are you btw?
-
She is a lovely dog - and I agree with Elscodobermann that it is an ideal mixture if it results in such a beautiful Basenji-look dog who also listens and behaves!

Thank you, both.
She's a cracking dog, both in looks and personality! -

Yes, technically she barks, though it's not actually a bark, it's more of a mid range seal-like sound! In saying that, she makes all sorts of unusual noises when the fancy takes her!
She weighs 12 kilos.

Thanks. Yes, she's a very good girl actually, though has very frequent moments of madness, which is great of course!
I'm in Greenock.

Thank you. She's great! And does behave herself (most of the time!). :rolleyes:

That's Basenji size at 26lbs. My first was some kind of mix too. Large curly tail and thick fur. Never barked. Heck of a watch dog though. Very protective and tough. She minded really well! She was given to me at 6 months old and lived to be 17-1/2.

Wow, Dan. She is gorgeous and sounded like a fantastic dog.
Very similar to Roxy in many ways, looks-wise. However, Roxy is one of the softest dogs I have ever met. She would lick burglers to death, not before requesting a tummy tickle! :rolleyes: -
Roxy is goegeous, what a great mix. I love her tail..she looks very friendly..

The yard ran all the way around. When I saw him the next day I asked how he liked it and he said he couldn't get in the yard because of the dog.
Good job Nipper!! -

lovely photos Nicola. Roxy looks a very happy girl.
-
Wow I got to say that's the only dog I've found that I fancy prettier than a "real" basenji
-
She is really pretty, and looks to be smart as well. Lucky dog!

She's so pretty!
