@DebraDownSouth:

LOL Robyn, I see more chihuahua too.

he's rather big for a chiuauha though

@curlytails:

Looking immediately at his face, I would say Corgi mix, but then the third picture where he's chewing on the rawhide, his legs look quite long and skinny. Wonder what happens when you combine a long-legged dog with a short-legged dog?? Is one dominant over the other?? (Sorry, I know nothing about canine genetics.)

There's also that "scoop" to his waist, which seems rather narrow. I could see him being a basenji-corgi mix.

And this…

... sounds pretty basenji-like.

yeah, he's rather tall. I'd say around 12 inches or so at least. The corgi's I saw were pretty short in their pics and chubby. He's pretty thin

@tanza:

Corgi mix, I would say… could be with a Basenji. Honestly, most dogs don't like baths

his nose looks Corgi, I just looked it up. Rest of him looks basenji

@DaMac:

What ever he, he's cute! They have a lot of cat like traits also, will clean each other. It's a long list of what the different ones will and can do. MIne didn't like dew on the grass but would jump into the pond after frogs.

I tried to give mine a bath when I first got him. He had been outside on a ranch most the time with his old owner so he was filthy. He HATED the bath

@tlish:

well, they can't bark, for one. they sort of yodel and make other funny sounds, but no barking. they use their front paws a lot like hands. many like to sleep under the covers. they're super fast and love to run laps around the house. they usually don't like rain/wet areas. some tend to sit with their hind legs sprawled. hmmmm… so many more. you'll see a lot threads on this forum where people find out that something odd their dog does, many many other basenjis do as well.

he rarely ever barks. He kinda did at petco today when he sawa nother dog though, but it sounded funny.

He uses his paws like hands, sleeps under the covers with me. He hates water….I dont' let him off leash. Did once and he took off around the block

@tlish:

looks like he could be a basenji mix! does he have any basenji personality traits?

well I just now learned about the breed. Someone at Petco said he looked like a basenji. What are some traits?

I got him a month or so ago. A guy on craigs list was giving him away. Couldn't have a dog. Said he had found him. He looks like all the pics I've seen of Basenjis.
