Just received the DNA results from Embarkvet.com - not a drop of Basenji in Lucy's gene pool. She is 46% Pit, 23% Min Pin, 7% Chow, 6% Siberian Husky, 6% Rottweiler, 6% Boston terrier & 6% supermutt. Even though she's not in the Basenji gene pool, this is a great forum as she seems to have a number of B traits & behaviors. I find all of the advice helpful. Thanks everyone for your input!
Basenji?

Basenji crossed with JR might be a good guess. Certainly her head and expression looks Basenji, and the size is right. I hope you do the DNA test, I would be interested in the results.

@kray14 I’m just guessing but Basenji / jack mix.
-
I don't see any Basenji but that's just a guess. If it matters, DNA tests are cheap, easy to administer, and pretty good. Way better than anyone's guess.

She does look part basenji - whatever she is - she’s ADORABLE!

I'd say there is at least some Basenji in that head, albeit not a lot ! Whatever she turns out to be, she's certainly a lucky dog to have met you, had her scourges cured and to have found someone she can really bond with. Love her to pieces - and do a DNA test if you feel you'd like to be sure. Continued good luck to you both !

She looks a lot like our JRT Stubby who passed this last September. She’s beautiful!
-
My opinion - definitely a basenji in the mix. I had a pet basenji, with champions on both sides, and the face of your dog reminds me of her so much!

Thanks! This is my Jack Russell rat terrier who I loved so much that I gave the Facebook ad for this dog a message
he was my baby. This girl is super stubborn. she's so smart but will only perk when you call her when she wants to

Omg she's at my boyfriend's house tonight and he sent me this picture!!
