Basenji + Horse = ?

  • Anubis is absolutely terrified of my horses. I have 3. A B/w Paint (Scout) a Thoroughbred (Jett) and a mustang (Ace). (My parents have like 4 others that are theirs but my 3 have grown up with dogs but Anubis hasnt grown up with horses. He gets his ridge going and gets scared when the lean over the fence to smell and say Hi. Its pretty funny actually. He thinks he can whip every dog (including the neighbors Great Pyreneese who comes around to say Hi sometimes) around but horses hes terrified of.

  • LOL! I was just reading a post on identifying a basenji mix…

    So when I saw this thread I immediately thought the basenji was crossed with a horse... or some big-as-a-horse canine.

    Anyway, beautiful photos! And thanks for the [unintentional] chuckle!

  • And here I thought all Connemara ponies were white! LOL

    These are great pics. I love the one of the horse rearing while the B is leaping like a mad thing in the background.

    Hi everyone, Thanks for all of your replies! Rex just had his first vet visit (first with me at least), and he was given a clean bill of health. The vet that I saw also agrees with a lot of you that he looks like a Min Pin more than a Basenji, but he is likely still mixed with something because he's a bit too big to be a pure Min Pin. I've looked at a few DNA Dog Breed tests online, and they seem to range in price and in quality. It seems like some of the cheaper (~$50) tests are fake, but they go all the way up to almost $250 for the higher quality ones. Do any of you have experience with these DNA tests / have a brand you found reputable? I'll be sure to post the results of any of the tests with this forum! Thanks again, and Rex is doing really great in his new home!! [image: 1559586518913-img_3707-resized.jpg] [image: 1559586546977-img_3720-resized.jpg] [image: 1559586568474-img_3708-resized.jpg]

    You had me confused and then I realized you meant the write up on the other rescue (Okapi)… I like less white also. So I had to go look... wow, coloring reminds me of minpins. :) Cute dog though.

    No idea, sometimes with mixes it's so hard to tell what the parentage is. I do think that your dog's head is a bit more refined than many of the pit mixes i've seen.

    We got Killian from a breeder in Ohio–-Jim Edgerton. That's where he had gotten our previous male basenji. We took Logan and Jasmine to his place and looked at several 1 year olds and a puppies and Jasmine eliminated the others and we agreed with her pick.
