People post mixes here and on Facebook all the time thinking the are a basenji or a mix.. This one is one of the few that really might be! She's probably mixed but I have seen purebred capped basenjis and ones with heavy ticking. A dna test would be interesting!
Her ears look a bit more rat terrier than basenji and the breeds have such a similar look that they get mistaken for each other a lot. I have a friend with a red/white standard rat terrier (show dog) who had a docked tail and is constantly mistaken for a basenji.
Hello! It's justbarb and pippa tsu

Our family is enjoying our third and currently only Basenji. Pippa is just two years old and the sweetest girl we have ever met! Our previous boy and girl were a bit territorial and we always had to worry about spats. Pip is so easy going, loves other dogs and even gave up her special spot in front of the fireplace to a visiting pup! I love that she knows how to share.
We're about to add a baby boy to the mix in another week. A wonderful red boy who is 5 mos old. Can't wait!

Welcome, lovely girl there.
We have 2 sisters, 2 and 3 years old - now that it is finally spring, they run around the garden like mad - a great sight.
Have fun with the pack! -
She does have lovely colours, welcome. I see she is as close as she can get to that fire.
