Houdini is a Basenji

    When my blk/wht, Nika was a puppy at 6 months old she did this amazing escape and reentry. She escapes out of the backyard into the neighbors yard by digging under. Ok simple enough. She then gets out of his yard through the front picket fence (I don't how) and comes back to my house and gets into my front yard through my picket fence (not sure how) and when I pull up in front getting home from work she's sitting on the front porch. There's no place to dig under the picket fences. I don't think an 8lb dog could jump these fences.

    8lb at 6 months?… Wow, she was a tiny little girl...

    Yes Pat I'm most likely incorrect in her weight. I was just best guessing.

    When Zahra was about 9 months I saw her go through a picket type fence at the dog park at PETA. I am glad that she is bigger now and can't do it anymore. Maybe I better not say that …

    Looks can be so deceiving- here is an article of a woman who adopted a rescue dog in N.J. Dog looks like a basenji - even her vet thought it might be basenji. She did an Embark DNA test - no basenji. Turned out the dog was a mixture of Mountain Cur, Rat Terrier, Beagle, and Boston Terrier. link text

    @melduff I for one think this is FANTASTIC news! You guys are so lucky! You have a one of kind super dog with the papers to prove it. Walks around the neighborhood and trips to the dog park are going to be very much fun... Friendly neighbor: Oh, she's so cute! What kind of dog is she? You: Thanks you so much. Why, she's a Staffy Chow Lab Rott Russell Husky. (Ya haff ta memorize that) :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes: :thumbs_up: Thanks a bunch for letting us know. Very much enjoyed your thread.

    @weedtrek Possibly Basenji mix, nose looks a bit wider and the eyes are less oval. Could well be a Basenji mix though.

    @phoenix3: Looks like a B to me but i think more of a B mix he looks like he has corse hair Maybe be has the size of a cattledog body and a basenji head :) My Aspen is a cattledog/ terrier mix he has the body of a cattledog {the colors} and the height and face of a terrier heres a pic so u can see the colors of the cattledog well one color anyways :D :D phoenix3 - this is Aspen? I'm so amazed at her spots, because my Daisy has spots like Aspens. We know her mother is pure R/W Basenji and she is thought her other half Beagle. One of her other litter mate moms thought Blue Healer (cattledog). But I subscribed to the Beagle. Daisy could be … Cattle Dog I suppose. She's bigger than Duke now at almost 9 months old. I will show her off soon on "Show Off" forum soon.
