    She is really cute though I don't see Basenji. Like Shirley said, only a DNA can tell you much for certain.

    I agree with the others that although he seems to have Basenji in him - his head is def. not Basenji. As for the leg I'd have it amputated if it troubles him - He'll cope with 3 legs I'm sure, but certainly consult a specialist first. Please keep us updated.

    I might be inclined to believe foxhound if he didn't weigh less than 40 lbs. That And neither a lab or a foxhound have a tail that goes straight up and curls over the back. Whippet is a possibility, but again that doesn't explain the tail curling over the back. Granted his tail is longer and not as bushy as a pure Basenj, but then he isn't pure Basenji. Pugs have a wrinkled forehead and a curled tail, but he has the longer neck and a gait more like a sight hound, and his coat is shorter but not the double coat of a lab, so I am kind of ruling out pug. He may be a big pile of mixes from parents who were mixed. I don't really care what breed he is, he is a great dog. I think I am right on basenji, but if not, it's no big deal. And no he hasn't chewed my underwear. He did chew on the couch cushion where I usually sit.

    Very cute pictures. I'm glad you posted these pictures. For some reason, I thought a Lowchen was a much bigger dog. Alfie is so adorable and of course Bandit is too. Bandit looks very young, wrinkles and all. I know all about those sharp teeth, my husband and I were Sahara's chew toy for awhile. She is almost 9 mos. and has pretty much stopped that behavior, except when we are playing with her. Same here too! I love that quote about feeling like the "walking wounded". That was funny. My hands used to hurt just looking at my feisty little baby toothed puppy. I can relate to that for the first couple months we had Duke. He is crossing his 9th month of life too. Not bad at biting anymore either, except for play. We worked on his biting habit for about a month in July/August. He's gotten the message about hurting me and playing nice. Ahhhh!
