  • My name is Rocky and I was two years old on Oct. 9, 2011. I am spoiled rotten, extremely stubborn, but highly intelligent. I do not follow commands well at all unless it was something I wanted to do anyway. The one thing I do on command is "Smile" cause it just seems to make my mom so very happy to see my "pearly whites!" Gotta give her some joy in her life, huh?? Also, I do not do baths!!

  • basenji and chi?

    Rocky…. you are darn cute. :)

  • That is what we think he is also.. He is 16 pounds, longer legs than chis, and runs like the wind..lol
    Thank you, we think he is an adorable little boy.

  • Very, very cute! Could be Chi/Basenji or Toy Fox Terrier/Chi…. or Rat Terrier x chi either way too cute and welcome

  • Welcome to the forum Rocky! I too see Chi/B. Curly tail, all white feet and white tail. Lookin good Rocky!

  • So cute <3

  • Thank you all for the sweet comments about our boy.. He is an extremely interesting little guy..lol Never a dull moment with Rocky around! I have been reading alot on this site, and find he does have many of the characteristics of the basenji breed.. so perhaps that is a part of his heritage.

  • Hey Chideb! Haven't seen you in a while. Rocky is beautiful. I think I have a chi/basenji mix, too. He has a lot of the traits but not all of them, so I am not 100% sure.

  • He looks a great guy.

    Hey Pam.. small world, huh?? It is great to see you again, I often think you of and your wonderful pack..I have always admired your dedication to chi rescue. I hope Babushka is doing well, such a sweetheart that little one.
    I am basically a "lurker" on our other forum these days, don't post very often. I just couldn't handle all of the acidic comments and egos any longer..lol It was no longer a site for the wonder of the dogs, but a place where people were constantly trying to "one up" each other. I regret not being able to participate after being there for 4 years, but everyone has to draw their line in the sand at some point.
    Blessings, Deb

    Yeah, I know what you mean. It has gotten better, a lot of the snarky ones left and we got a load of new people that are quite nice. Babushka is such a sweet, crazy puppy, I am so in love with her. How long have you had Rocky? He is a cutie.

  • Pam, Have had Rocky since he was a baby.. Here are a couple of baby pics of him.. he was adorable and full of mischief!

  • Hope you guys don't get tired of looking at pics of possible Basenji mixes! This is Rio and I have tried to narrow his breed type to Basenji - Toy Fox/Rat Terrier - Chi - and Shephard. I keep seeing more Basenji than anything else but tell me otherwise! Thanks for your input!!!

    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.

    There are now DNA tests available that can pinpoint what your dog might be genetically. Some companies can only do 30 or so breeds but most advertise well over 150. Why should you care - well it is a way to know what sorts of things healthwise you should be on the lookout for as many breeds have unique health issues. I was at the vet last year and there was a puggle there with an eye issue - the owners shared what it was and it is common in beagles. They then went on to say that they had trouble with the other eye before and it was an issues specific (although not exclusive) to pugs. So much for hybrid vigor. Darling picture though - good luck

    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.
