Is Rocko a Basenji Mix?

    Hi everyone!

    I just adopted this beautiful little boy yesterday from a local animal shelter. I named him Rocko after the 90s cartoon Rocko's Modern Life. While I was walking around the shelter various people started throwing breed names at me as for what kind of mix Rocko is but nobody knew for sure. One of the breeds I was told was a Basenji mix of some sort, after looking them up online and thinking about his very quiet nature I thought maybe this fit him. I wasn't entirely sure so I decided to come to the experts that would know, other Basenji owners.

    So, what do you guys think? Is he a Basenji? Does he have Basenji in him? Or do you think he's some other breed?

    I don’t think you are, dang it and I want ALL the dogs to be Basenji! Still… great looking pup. Get a DNA test. If that pup has ANY Basenji in it, I’ll send you a beer. 👊😁👍

    The traits you described are also found in most of the Nordic/spitz type dogs. I don't see anything overly basenji-ish about him in the pics. What ever he is, he's very hansome.

    Look at the BRAT mixes: http://basenjirescue.org/DOGS-MIXES/Default.htm Check out Tia. I think that's what you are looking for. :) Then look at Tyson and Shiloh. Not the right coloring, but similar build and coat….
