    My friend adopted a pup from a family that thought it was a shiba inu, but it's not fluffy at all.
    We had never heard of the Basenji until someone mentioned it, so I know nothing about them.

    She's about five months, probably 18" tall and a little under twenty pounds.
    She's extremely energetic, but can show surprising control especially on command.
    She also has a straight tail and barks, a relatively regularly bark.
    She also makes a weird high pitch sound when super engaged with certain toys.

    She looks like the GIS pictures of a Basenji to me, except for that tail. I was hoping maybe a more experience eye could rule it out or confirm it.


  • Possible... but very cute... there are many mixes that have "hound" traits


  • The ears and the sitting posture looks like a Basenji....but the eyes don't seem to have that intense stare that says "I'm the boss, you just don't know it yet..." So cute give her a hug for me.


  • She is a adorable - does look part Basenji to me.


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