People post mixes here and on Facebook all the time thinking the are a basenji or a mix.. This one is one of the few that really might be! She's probably mixed but I have seen purebred capped basenjis and ones with heavy ticking. A dna test would be interesting!
Her ears look a bit more rat terrier than basenji and the breeds have such a similar look that they get mistaken for each other a lot. I have a friend with a red/white standard rat terrier (show dog) who had a docked tail and is constantly mistaken for a basenji.
Hello!

My name is Carol and I live in SW Missouri. I have one Basenji right now, who is my very first conformation dog. What a wild ride this has been! I also compete in agility and obedience, and hope to take Bakari to a lure test one day.
I have 5 dogs that live here full time, as well as a BRAT foster, who is waiting for his forever home. The fosters come and go, but are well loved while they are here!
I look forward to chatting with and learning from everyone.
