I am pretty sure you can't just look at a mix and declare what it is. Scientific studies have debunked that over and over. Best to do a DNA test, in my opinion. I have a mix who was advertised as a Basenji Mix, and her DNA results confirmed it. If you just looked at her and made a judgement, it would be mixed: her color was all askew, her tail was half-curled, she was smaller and featured more slender face and feet than a pure-bred B.
But, apparently, the 1/4 Min Pin (the ONLY other DNA in her sample) contributed some significant traits. Behavior and personality wise, Basenji rules the day. Again, I recommend a DNA test, and they improve by the day.
What is this other B identity thing that is mentioned in this thread? Is it also a DNA test, or something else?
Oh, and hey, your baby is way cute!

They are all adorable. I love the boxer's underbite. So cute! The B's are beautiful!
-
Very pretty dogs! Who is your breeder for the Basenjis?
That would be Ms. Robyn Dubbert of Sherwood Kennels in Georgia- you probably know her as Yodeldogs!!
-
Well, that makes sense why they are so lovely, then
I think I know your tri bitch then. Didn't you go to the BCOC National last year in Sarnia? We were there too! -

I think I know your tri bitch then. Didn't you go to the BCOC National last year in Sarnia? We were there too!Yes,Yes,Yes!! I had Shadow there as well I believe in the Altered class. She was also in RI at the BCOA National. Funny walk-we're working on that. She definitely has typical tri attitude though. Into everything,anything and always on the move!
I'll also have her at the BCOC National in Manitoba this year!
-
good lookin group of dogs you have there!
-
Good looking family! Our girl Chevy comes from Robyn also.
-
If anyone was at the BCOA National in RI, they would probably remember Sugar as the one sleeping on the stand, strutting with her head down, wake me when it's over attitude. She had just come into her first heat (3 days), lost a LOT of iron and did NOT want to be there. I think she said to me, "Wake me when it's over please!"
-
Uh….there were lots of basenjis there doing that
That is *normal for the basenji ring It's like they are saying "whatever, Mom...I understand that you enjoy this for some reason...but REALLY, do we have to?" -
Okay she was also the one in the 6-12 mos class that was not listed as she was in the dog class not the bitch class.
-
Oh my your crew is absolutley adorable. I love Shadow, he's adorable, Sugar looks mischievous, Zina looks like a typical boxer clown and Calli is so cute and looks like a cuddler.
I could have it all wrong though, lol
They are all great looking.
-
Yep, that pretty much describes them. I'm going to post more pics of just the B's. Couldn't do it all in one shot!!
-
They are all sweeties. I can't help it I just love animals.
