@zande I know that I’m lucky to have found him! I hope he feels that he lucked out, too. Actually, I don’t care very much what “mix” he is. I had just never heard of basenjis before my Vet mentioned it. He doesn’t have a long tail - it seems to have been clipped. The barking is only when he hears someone approach my apartment door or if someone comes in that he doesn’t know. I’m working on desensitizing him to the latter. He DOES make noises like the dog in the videos below make & he grooms himself quite a bit. He DOES NOT play with toys. Don’t know if that’s breed specific or just Jack! He also isn’t too active; he’d be happy to sit on my lap or with his face in my arm pit all day!
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!
