Am I a Basenji Mix?

Show Off Your Dog
  • 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. 👊😁👍

    What a cutie, sad such beautiful dogs get put down. To me the ears look Basenji and some of the things he does as well, Kaiser does a wait and stare. Do let us know if you get him tested what the results are. Find Kaiser needs mental exercise more than physical, he is a very good puzzle solver, maybe you can play some mental games and see if that helps to tire him. Jolanda and Kaiser

    @Mr: I have a question. Our 3 B's are all adoptees (rescues), all are full Basenji, we've had them tested by the Wisdom Panel Purebred Certification Test, but have not the slightest clue as to their bloodlines. What do we do to get them approved for lure coursing? For AKC, look into the ILP program. I have no idea about ASFA, but maybe once you have your ILP AKC number, you can transfer to ASFA

    Oh yeah, he looks way more like a b-mix to me than a lot of the pups listed as basenjis on Petfinder. And they mention he's not a barker. What a cutie! Someone go get this guy! :D
