The ears say Basenji. I have never replied but felt I had to this time. I have a Basenji-Pitbull mix named Daisy. It was Daisy's ears (and behavior) that I discovered her to be part Basenji. I have not found another breed with the ears such as Basenji's have. I'm sure I will get "crap" because I have not had DNA or other testing done but there is no mistaking, Daisy is part Basenji. I think its important to know if your dog is part Basenji because in Daisy's case she is 98% Basenji and 2% pitbull concerning her behaviors and personality. Daisy is 2 years old and it has been quite a learning experience owning such a smart, stubborn, loving, mind of her own, amazing dog! Daisy is a mix but I have to train, teach, go outside to yell out frustrations cause of her (and no I'm not kidding, but never in front of her) and all that goes with a pure Basenji because trying to train her like a normal dog does not work.
Does your Basenji punch?

Khalani my Basenji has an awesome right cross and his jabs aren't bad either.
I am trying to get him to stop nibbling me at the moment and I usually put my hand around his muzzle and tell him NO!
He then proceeds to swipe his paws and on more than one occasion has caught me with a couple of jabs and a right cross . It is amazing how accurate he is.
Does anyone else's B do that to them? -
Dolce gets super excited to see me and i dont mind her putting her paws on me. If i kneel down or we go by the bed she puts her paws on my chest and sometimes jabs me in the eye or trys to paw my face to place.. then we have a calm convo on how thats not allowed and since I'm no longer excited she chills out and cuts it out.

Yes!! Bowpi loves to "box" when she gets excited. But she doesn't have much follow-through. It's adorable. I'm not quite sure what she's thinking. I take it as an expression of her excitement and desire to be involved. She usually starts boxing when our Shiba tries to roughhouse with her, or when the Shiba is roughhousing with other humans – and she inserts herself into the mix.
