Not a basenji, but…

Show Off Your Dog
  • I joined about a month ago and I am so very glad that I did. I love reading all of the informative information everyone on here has to provide and even though my issue is still on going I refuse to give up hope. I just recently brought a new edition into my home and although she is not a basenji I know everyone will still appreciate her cuteness! I attempted to join a frenchie forum but upon reading posts and what not I just find this one to be way more 'home-y'. Having that said I may be here to stay with my one basenji, one frenchie, 2 himalayans and an alpha female tiger cat! Hope you enjoy the pics and hopefully be able to help with puppy questions soon!

  • Aww too cute !! Love the ears :) Thanks for sharing

  • Sooo Cute! Love the face!

  • What a love!!! Will she change her colour or is that the same as the adult coat

  • What a sweetie… I have always loved Frenchies....

  • She is a cutie. Next to Bs I think I love the bull dogs.

    I know what you mean about other forums when my sons dog was here I joined a lab forum but I just couldnt get into it. I figured it was because my true love is for the Bs but as you mentioned this forum just seem so much more homey and welcoming. I would also say people seem more helpful here.

  • What a beautiful little baby :)

  • Thank you for all of your comments! Yes, I actually joined 2 of them, earlier in the week. One of them just now sent me my activation email and the other one, the most recent post was like last week! I would absolutely die if I posted something and had to wait a week to hear back something! And Patty, yes that is her forever coat. Her ear will continue to get more prominent like the Bs too:)

  • She is an adorable little thing! French Bulldogs always peak my curiosity when I see them. They look like they have tons of character.

  • After striking out with my first 2 B's I figured I'd give my other love a try! She is wonderful so far, potty training is kicking our butt..as with any puppy. We have only had her a week yesterday so I'm sure this is gonna be fun! She is giving us (my gf and I, our 3 cats and Sid) a run for our money! Sid is very jealous though, which is what we wanted. We need him to desire attention instead of just laying around all day long. Wish us luckkkk with the ol' man.

    @creambasenji Please start a new topic/thread in Member Introductions when you upload an image of your "cream" basenji. That way, more people will see it. (thanks!)

    She is really cute though I don't see Basenji. Like Shirley said, only a DNA can tell you much for certain.

    @xjole said in Does my Stella have some Basenji in her?: She has the wrinkled brow, upright erect ears, white markings on feet, chest, and tip of curled tail. Her preferred way of communicating is a song-like low howl, although she can bark. She hates getting wet and her prey drive is HIIIGH. She is very reserved and cautious, although that might be due to her stray status before I adopted her. Others have commented that she looks like she has some Corgi or Shiba Inu in her, and while I do see it, I see more of the Basenji temperament in her. I've asked her vet about the DNA testing, but I've been told that it is very unreliable, so I thought I'd ask other Basenji owners what they thought! The Wisdom Panel DNA tests have been getting better every year, so it's not as much of a gamble as it used to be. That said, the test does best with a purebred, then with a two-breed dog (like a "labradoodle" or whatever), and worst with a total mutt. If your girl is indeed a mix of two purebred dogs, it might be worth a shot. Check your pet store or Amazon for the test; the one that vets give is the most expensive anyway and is only worth it if you want to know about hereditary health issues, too.

    Hope you guys don't get tired of looking at pics of possible Basenji mixes! This is Rio and I have tried to narrow his breed type to Basenji - Toy Fox/Rat Terrier - Chi - and Shephard. I keep seeing more Basenji than anything else but tell me otherwise! Thanks for your input!!! Snappy
