Dog Day Pics (No Basenji)

    My mums lovely labrador Megan went in to be spayed a couple of days ago, a nice, easy, routine op right? Well, during it they found a large lump so decided to remove it and we have since found out that it is a cancerous mamory tumour :( Not what we were expecting at all as she is still young. But at least we've caught it early. She has two very large stitched up wounds from the two surgeries though so is feeling very sorry for herself. As my mum was out xmas shopping today I was roped in for Meg-sitting duties, so thought i'd share some very random photos i took today.

    Shall start off with Meg first

    And Logan now, after his bath ready for his show tomorrow. I gave him this chew as a treat for behaving himself, but he just wanted to play with it :rolleyes: So Meg had it instead :D

    With Chloe, Meg's mum:

    And the puglets:

    And begging to PLAY:

    Some of those naughty puglets!

    (Our "Keeper" is the one looking shifty at the back :rolleyes: )

    And of course, thats our Keeper Rio with the creepy exorcist head thing going on :lol:

    And heres my labrador Riley, who was visiting with me for the day for see his sister Meg:

    He made himself at home!

    And Logan and Pepa who were drying off after their baths:

    Another possibility might be Rat Terrier. They do come in brindle, although that colour is out of favour. There is one in my neighbourhood that has a bit of a Basenji look to him, and his tail is very short.......not sure if it's natural or docked.

    The question about the doggy smell is a good one - basenjis do not smell like dogs. If you stick your face right into their fur the comparison is like sticking your face into a nice clean healthy cat - warm and not really a discernable smell. Except their feet. Their feet smell like Fritos sort of.

    @Lovelace: Really? What ones? I don't know of any that have all the criteria? I've done extensive research on the breeds, and i'm curious I don't recall any. I think Pat means lots of dogs have one or more of these traits. Those three things all together MAY be an indication that the dog does have some basenji in it…but not for sure. Because the dog could be a boxer/husky mix...and end up with right color/markings, pointy ears, a curly tail, and have wrinkle on the forehead (lots of dogs have wrinkles around the face). Rat terriers are notorious for looking like Basenjis...but the shape of their head is slightly different, and the breed was founded using some Basenji way back. Another thing to remember is that after several generations of mixing, all dogs tend to go back to a natural or pariah dog shape...squarish, brown, pointy ears, slightly curled tail...that is just the natural phenotype of "dog"...so a dog might end up looking Basenji-ish even if there is no actual Basenji there. I am not refering specifically to the OP...that dog does look like it might have some Basenji in it..or Rat terrier...but it is REALLY hard to say for sure. It doesn't matter really, because everyone is welcome here...Basenji, mix, B-look alike...welcome...
