@yodelma Yes, the information about the flu coming in from imported dogs was alarming. What struck me was that the dogs (in question) were properly vetted and quarantined - and they still missed it. Perhaps the receiving vets weren't informed from the sending vets (beware: potential flu carriers)...
My non basenji dogs :)

As I don't own a Basenji yet I thought I would share some photos of the two I currently own
This is Charlie who is just over a year old male cross breed, we got him from a rescue group when he was a pup.
And Freja who is a 8 month old female German Shepherd dog.
And one of them together

Both beautiful! I am definitely more drawn to Charlie! What a face!
-
Charlie looks very b mix to me.
Any idea where he came from? -
Charlie looks very b mix to me.
Any idea where he came from?No, he was dumped with his litter mates at a Vet. Every little mate was a different colour, black, white ,tan , brindle… you name it.
He was listed as a staffy x but its quite obvious now he isn't that.But he clean himself like a cat ( which I have heard is a Basenji characteristic) and also doesn't like getting wet or swimming.

As soon as I saw Charlie I was thinking he looked part Basenji, it was the face shape that looks like it too me. From your remarks it sounds like he might be part B also, with cleaning like a cat, and hating water, Very Interesting! Whatever he is he's beautiful and the Shepard as well.
-
Awe they are both very cute
-
What sweet & beautiful dogs you have!
