New here!

I stumbled upon this forum one day and decided to join. I live in sunny Florida and ever since I discovered that my now 8-year-old dog was a basenji mix, I have been obsessed with the breed. I have done tons of research over the years and want to own a Basenji one day(probably when I get out of college). What can I say? Like many others, I've fallen in love!

Unlike her basenji relatives, my dog, Nugget, can bark. She is a bit larger than a basenji, but still retains the curly tail. She is red with white markings and a little black on her face. I love her and she has been my companion for nearly 8 years now. She still has the basenji trait of cleaning herself though. Here is a picture of her:

Welcome to the forum. My B is a mix too - Basenji and Whippet.

[Duke]

Welcome - I have two B-mixes. Duke is a Basenji-Jack and Daisy is a Basenji-Spaniel. Maybe two halves can count as a whole Basenji!!

Enjoy the forums.

Thanks, everyone! I think I'll learn a lot here.

Duke and jenwilson, I'm pretty sure my B-mix is part border collie. It's great to know of someone else who has a B-mix. :)
