Okay - yes…the results are in! Tassie is officially 0% basenji...wamp wamp. But- what a weird mix she is! German shepherd, dalmatian, shiba inu, pharaoh hound and greyhound. I guess we guessed wrong - but love her just the same. Thanks for all the insight, everyone!

Thanks for the comments, all! Does anyone have any thoughts on what else might be in her makeup?

Yep…wisdom panel! Will for sure update when we get the results.

Thanks Joanne! We actually just sent in her DNA test today! I'm very excited to find out what she is.

Hi all…Newbie here looking for some insight.

Meet Tassie. She is 2 years old and is a rescue from the local shelter. I highly suspect that she is half basenji - every quirky trait she has seems like it's a basenji trait, only slightly muted.

-curled tail
-basenji ears
-wrinkled forehead
-yodeling
-she gets 'scruffy' quite easily, even if I know she's not scared or being aggressive.
-webbed feet?
-loves to climb
-she loves to 'talk' with us, especially if we yodel with her!

Other traits:
-she follows us everywhere!
-VERY smart (but sneaky - she finds loopholes!)

I'm sure there are other things that I'm not remembering right now. She is just about the coolest dog, though. Do you guys think she's part basenji? If so, what might her other half be? I have an idea, but I'm curious what you folks think.

Oh - she weighs about 40 lbs.

Thanks in advance for the insight!

-Enjoy the mid-yodel photo!
