My boy is a real escape artist, and I mean real - Julius K9, loads that people have recommended as being for 'Houdini dogs'. He also chews through leashes, including a beautiful, very expensive leather and brass….which he neatly chewed into 8 inch lengths when I was foolish enough to leave it below 6 feet up....the only thing I trust my boy to be tethered in is his current harness - a Ruffwear Webmaster. For walking, yes, a martingale (and oddly enough, Butu has never worked the trick when slack), but I'd definitely not trust him tethered. I'd get him one of these, and probably a chain and trust him in an open stall where he can see you and you can chat....I'd make the chain long enough that he could stand in the entrance, but could go inside the stall if he wants a sleep, drink, food from his bowls....do not let him near tack, horses feeding stuff, horse's anything - and I'd be cautious about hay too.... Chealsie508 - have you tried these (Ruffwear Webmaster?) If this hadn't worked I was going for a Ruffwear Doubleback, which costs a serious amount of money (but when I think of the number of useless harnesses I've bought..) but is the nearest thing I've seen to a doggie straitjacket - it's used by those people who drag labradors rock climbing....

I am wondering if my dog is a basenji or a basenji mix? We have had him since he was a puppy and was told he was a pomchi but I don't think he is. What do you all think?

Looks more like Shibu Inu in him not basenji and maybe some kind of terrier.

I agree, more shiba then Basenji
-
I don't see basenji, but I do see 100 percent cute.
Yeah, I'd say more Shiba Inu also. I found pics with a lot at or on dining tables... but these pups on grooming tables gives you an idea. -
Hi,
Thanks I looked up a Shibu Inu then came across a Pom-Shi and I wonder if he could be that? That dog is a lot like the Basenji . That dog is a Shibu Inu and A Pomeranian. The photo below is the Shi- Pom what do you all think?
Thanks -
I agree- Shiba Inu

Thanks everyone for your help!
