    Suzee - great video of two dogs that obviously love to play with one another. It's so cute how Congo plays/runs and turns to look back to make sure his friend is chasing him!

    right?! it was hilarious because for the first 15 minutes Congo was just being a drama queen and wanted nothing to do with kapo. but i picked congo up and gave him some lovin' and put him down, then he was like ok.. i guess i'll play. =)

    and congo is in great shape for 77 dog years.. i really lucked out with him!!

    Shaye also loves playing with the big dogs - if they aren't paying attention to her she annoys them until they chase her, and it's all fun and games from that point - and my b definitely has to be sprayed off before we leave the dogpark, because she usually is coated with dog drool on her head, neck and back. Her favorite two friends are an 18 month old female Rhodesian Rideback named Charlie (a girl) and a 2 year old doberman named Ruthie - sometimes they play together and ignore Shaye, then she tries to break them up and they are a very unevenly matched threesome running after each other. Fun to watch.

    @creambasenji Please start a new topic/thread in Member Introductions when you upload an image of your "cream" basenji. That way, more people will see it. (thanks!)

    @xjole said in Does my Stella have some Basenji in her?: She has the wrinkled brow, upright erect ears, white markings on feet, chest, and tip of curled tail. Her preferred way of communicating is a song-like low howl, although she can bark. She hates getting wet and her prey drive is HIIIGH. She is very reserved and cautious, although that might be due to her stray status before I adopted her. Others have commented that she looks like she has some Corgi or Shiba Inu in her, and while I do see it, I see more of the Basenji temperament in her. I've asked her vet about the DNA testing, but I've been told that it is very unreliable, so I thought I'd ask other Basenji owners what they thought! The Wisdom Panel DNA tests have been getting better every year, so it's not as much of a gamble as it used to be. That said, the test does best with a purebred, then with a two-breed dog (like a "labradoodle" or whatever), and worst with a total mutt. If your girl is indeed a mix of two purebred dogs, it might be worth a shot. Check your pet store or Amazon for the test; the one that vets give is the most expensive anyway and is only worth it if you want to know about hereditary health issues, too.

    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.

    Thank you very much for the info. I will have to try the time out. He was crate trained as far as being house broken, but now when I put brownie in the crate all he does is whine.. I do have 2 older dogs. one that plays with him and the other, well he just growls at brownie. The mother that was there when I got Brownie was a white shepard, maybe that is where the broad nose comes in.
