Hi, I'm Icey (don't ask)
I think I adopted a Basenji a year ago and didn't know it..still not even sure, but he has most of the characteristics..he's a mutt..but I've been reading here and trying to learn what I can. When we adopted him we were told he was a shepherd husky mix…i'm thinking not...Please take a look at him and tell me what you think.Meet Mr. Sultan...
-
He looks like a B Mix to me not sure what other mixes he has in him
-
He sure looks like a Shepherd to me more than anything. He is super cute.
-
He's very cute! What sorts of B-characteristics does he have? Does he bark much?
-
He is very cute, how tall is he?
-
His characteristics…mostly I think the cat-like qualities, the perching on the back of my sofa and staring out the window, the constant cleaning himself. He's chewing on everything, such as gnawing on the blankets, pillows, the light cord, cell phone, he ate a hole in the carpet..he's sneaky..two of us in the bathroom one day getting ready, we put everything, so we though up, and yet somehow he got ahold of the good mascara...I've almost trained my children that they wanted the dog, it's their job to put their stuff away or it's fair game..he's extremely curious..hates the rain..I read somewhere where a Basenji will try to get their way by nudging you with their nose, Sultan does this all the time...and I will plead my ignorance, This is the first dog we've ever had of our own...I'm not sure if these characteristcs match others as well...just had two people tell me he looks and behaves like a B.
About measuring him...do you measure from the ground to the top of their head or the back? Okay..stop laughing..it's okay..I plea ignorant...I've never done this

Icey, welcome to this forum and the world of basenji ownership I sometimes refer to as Basenji hell!! He looks B. to me!!! It sounds like he acts like a B. too!!
Good thing is he found you and you found us!!
To paraphrase an old adage, If it looks like a duck, and quacks like a duck, it must be ….a Basenji:eek:
Hope you find all the training needs and advice here that you seeK

Those are definitely basenji traits! Could be a b-husky mix…b's are happy to "mix". Welcome, love to see the photos and hear stories.
-
I think he's got B in him, too. He looks like he could be Magnum's brotha by anotha motha!
Very cute! Welcome to the forum!

Wow…I'm in lyndhurst..what is BRAT and what is the other thing you do?
-
BRAT is Basenji Rescue and Transport (www.basenjirescue.org)). Its a national basenji rescue, I'm sure if you search this forum you will find people talking about them. I think they are a great organization and I love volunteering for them. They have volunteers that screen and do home visits for potential adopters, evaluate basenjis coming into rescue, foster, transport B's to new homes, etc. If you want to help they can always use more volunteers, just check out their website!
If you might want to have a meet-up with the dogs you can email me at lpd7 at hotmail dot com.. we can give eachother more details about our dogs and see if we think they would like to play! you can click the link for pics of my B mix http://www.basenjiforums.com/showthread.php?t=1937
