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. 👊😁👍

    I can see why someone would think there was Terrier, but I'm not so sure about Basenji. (The only way to know for sure is to do a DNA test.) Both of your dogs look very similar. What breed, or mix, is the older one?

    OMG soooo cute. Her colouring and face don't look like a basenji, but maybe she's mixed with something with stronger genes. Do a DNA test. That would be fun!

    I could see a B in her face. I agree with the shepard cross. :)

    Oh yeah, he looks way more like a b-mix to me than a lot of the pups listed as basenjis on Petfinder. And they mention he's not a barker. What a cutie! Someone go get this guy! :D
