Happy New Year to you and your beauty!!!!
Is my dog a Basenji?
-
mixes are always a mystery…. both of his parents could have been mixes themselves, and their parents mixes as well. it's always good to make a guess at what breed seems dominant, though, at least so when people ask you what kind of dog you have, you can give them an answer. it might also give you a sense of what to expect in the future, and what to keep an eye out for, health-wise. i think you'll find a lot of good info on this forum - it sure sounds like he's got some basenji in there somewhere!

He looks like a chihuahua to me
He is cute! -
Whatever he is, he is adorable, and I am sure he will make a wonderful companion.

He is cute!I was thinking Chihuahua , too. I Googled Chihuahua and this site has a wide range of Chihuahuas of varying quality. Scroll down to the third picture. Similar in many ways.

LOL Robyn, I see more chihuahua too.

My first thought was chiuauaha, he has a bit of a domed forhead, i can also see Basenji and he sounds like he has some traits. A Basenji has two pads joined at the bottom on each foot.
Great that you have rescued him and i look foward to hearing all about him. -
he's rather big for a chiuauha though
If you see Chis that are actually from Mexico, they are a lot bigger than what you see here in the US. They vary A LOT!

Does he have a doggie smell?
-
Hard to tell - but whatever I'm sure you love him. My first thought was Corgi because of the ears. See what develops- how old is he? Welcome to the forum.

Corweenie! (Corgi x chihuahua)
Whatever he is, more pictures!

The question about the doggy smell is a good one - basenjis do not smell like dogs. If you stick your face right into their fur the comparison is like sticking your face into a nice clean healthy cat - warm and not really a discernable smell. Except their feet. Their feet smell like Fritos sort of.
