  • Here are some better pictures of our new shelter dog that we think may have some basenji in her. Thank you for letting me share. I tried capturing some of the wrinkles on her face but the camera washes them out.



  • She is cute, but don't think any Basenji… many dogs have wrinkles on their forheads....

  • Any guesses as to what she may be?

  • To me Dakato looks like he may have some Basenji, small amount. Does he act like a Basenji, and does he bark? Anyone else see B in him?

  • She is not a barker but does make noises kind of like purring sounds. I have heard her bark once or twice so I know she has a voice but it is very rare to hear it. She is extremely playful, alert and demanding she likes to bite/ chew everything and loves to find socks and bring them to us. She is smart and quick and a good jumper. She loves climbing on furniture. She cleans herself all the time (almost cat like). But I think her size and weight are already what a full grown basenji would be but she is only 5 months old.
    I know she is not pure bred by any means but I do see some basenji in her.

    Her ears and her tail look very Basenji to me. Does she have a freckled belly? Can she bark? Does she lick herself like a cat?

    Roscoe does that also. I have a mirrored closet door and he will see himself in the mirror. He'll sit and stare at himself and sometimes reach out a paw and try to touch himself. I think he thinks there's another basenji looking at him.
