One of our sisters is called Bintu (Swahili for daughter - Binti for calling her). The other one's official name is Elinor (Arabic for light of god). To find a short name that was connected to that, we went from Elinor to Eleonora (the European version), and from there to Lela (Spanish abbreviation for Eleonora). And a Lela she is 100%.

Thanks everyone!! We plan on doing a DNA test soon. Really curious about his curly tail!
There are many dogs that have a tail curl, example are Akita, Malamute, Husky, etc

@shanellio19
You’ll have to post his DNA results on the Forum when you have it done. It will be interesting to find out his genetic make-up. -
@tanza very True!!!
-
@kembe yes I definitely will. Been doing some research and jindo is on my guess list. Will post results in a few weeks!

So the original shelter was wrong! Here are Chester's results for those who are interested. He is a super asian mutt!

WOW! That's some ancestral line!

@shanellio19
“Wow! What a mix!” Lol! Thanks for posting his results. He has very interesting genetic make-up. (Curly tail must be from the Hokkaido Inu or Akita Inu). -
So cool! Honestly those are some very primitive breeds so you'll probably see a lot of basenji-like traits and behaviors like prey drive. My friends with ridgebacks and akitas seem to a have a lot in common with us basenjis. You'll have a blast with him, cheers!

@aprilk yea definitely! Thanks for being welcoming to a non-,basenji super mix everyone!!
