Ask the breeder how big the sire and dam are. That's a good idea. My first basenji, who was a champion, weighed nearly 26 pounds when she matured. My 2nd one would have been about that, but thanks to steroids, we did good to keep her at 30. My current rescue is a giant. We won't go there. I first dreamed of a SMALL dog, maybe 15 pounds tops after years of being a BIG DOG person (rottweilers and chows). I don't see that ever happening.

Diet has a lot to do with it and my wife uses a shampoo for black dogs which helps too. We have two black and whites, the way I understand it, one is a B/W brindle and Willy is a B/W. Willy is almost jet black while the other(Raven) is black with a brownish tint and if you look at her in the sun, you can see stripes.

Beautiful picture!

He's a good looking boy. Our Jill would go gaga for him.
