Hi Lisa,
My husband and I live in Winston Salem, NC and have a 2 year old basenji. We have been trying to find other basenji owners in the area as well, as well as a basenji friend for our dog to play with. I am really excited to know that someone else nearby loves basenjis!
Hello from Los Angeles, CA

Meet Boots! We adopted him from a rescue when he was about 3 months old. Now he’s 10 months old. He was found out in the desert town of Palmdale, CA with his 3 other brothers. The rescue thought he might be part shar Pei, but we’re pretty sure he’s a basenji mix with jack russell terrier. Maybe corgi or chihuahua too. He definitely has the temperament and characteristics: Loves to play, spotty discipline, super friendly with other dogs and humans, and very fast. He has a very loud bark but uses it sparingly. He’s about 25 lbs now and is pretty stocky.

I would tend to think he is part Basenji, however, the only way to know for sure is to do a DNA test. My opinion is (primarily) based on his chest and the appearance of his fur. Everyone has their insight, so others may feel differently. Please let us know what the DNA outcome is if you decide to do one.
