Thanks for saving a life ! I agree obediance is definitely atypical of a basenji ! The mixed breed dogs are the best most of the time. I have 7 dogs all different breed mixes except for my George who looks like a pure bred Basenji.
All of my dogs including the basenji are rescue dogs (and not from the shelter !) Found on the side of the road rescues!......Thank you , glad the dog found a good home!

Am I a Basenji Mix?

Hi,
I just rescued her from a shelter and she's a 6-month-old puppy.
The shelter said she's a mini Pinscher mix, but I see more of Chihuahua and part Basenji.
She's timid, doesn't bark yet (who knows), but very energetic when she feels comfortable.
She's on the smaller side (about 10 lbs but think she will grow.)
I am going to get a DNA kit to tell what mix she is but just wanted to ask here.
Her name's Boree and I am already in love with her.!

She looks to be an absolute little darling, but honestly I don't see any Basenji in there at all. But in case there is - welcome to the Forum !

I don't see Basenji, or Min Pin, or much Chihuahua... I almost want to suggest that she might be part-shepard. Based on the size of her paws, she could weigh in around 20-25 pounds when she's grown. But that's all just guesses. Please let us know what the DNA results reveal! (I always love that part!)

I don’t think you are, dang it and I want ALL the dogs to be Basenji! Still… great looking pup. Get a DNA test. If that pup has ANY Basenji in it, I’ll send you a beer.
