    I am pretty sure you can't just look at a mix and declare what it is. Scientific studies have debunked that over and over. Best to do a DNA test, in my opinion. I have a mix who was advertised as a Basenji Mix, and her DNA results confirmed it. If you just looked at her and made a judgement, it would be mixed: her color was all askew, her tail was half-curled, she was smaller and featured more slender face and feet than a pure-bred B. But, apparently, the 1/4 Min Pin (the ONLY other DNA in her sample) contributed some significant traits. Behavior and personality wise, Basenji rules the day. Again, I recommend a DNA test, and they improve by the day. What is this other B identity thing that is mentioned in this thread? Is it also a DNA test, or something else? Oh, and hey, your baby is way cute!

    Reminds me of a quote I saw [not my own] while browsing an unrelated forum, something along the lines of: "Maybe one day dogs will evolve to the point where they can defend themselves from our silly hats, but until that day comes I'm going to continue dressing my pugs up in stupid clothing…and there's not a thing they can do about it." I never thought I would put clothing on my dog....and now and then I catch myself taking stupid photos with him in my jacket, or sunglasses, etc. . No costumes yet though thankfully... I do love the tin hat though, absolutely adorable. Teehee. They are so patient with us.

    @CrazyBasenjiMom: Lovely, so cute, and they haven't chewed up their blankets or beds??? My three chew and destory every bed I've gotten them, I even bought the ORVIS no chew bed. It only took them 3 days for that one. No chewing on the beds here.. And if they try, they get a 'no' and something else that's stuffed and is allowed to be destroyed ;) Seems to work… (hope it stays that way.. ;))

    Our first Basenji targeted one post of a redwood gazebo in our back yard. He just slowly worked on it until eventually it was no bigger in diameter than a primary size pencil. We replaced the post, fearing that the gazebo would fall down when he eventually got all the way through. He loved the new post too, so we finally had to put metal flashing around it. He never really chewed any of the other 7 posts holding the gazebo up! 2 of our current Basenjis have completely denuded a eucalyptus tree of bark as far up as they can reach - but they leave the other eucalyptus alone… What goes on in their minds???
