    From my sister's chow blog.
    NOTE: No ill will intended towards the Navy Seals, who did a brilliant job. This is in no way meant to upset anyone.
    –---------------------------------------------------------

    Hey Navy Seals… I'm ready for your next mission!

    It's in the newspapers and on TV - a Belgian Shepherd (?) was instrumental in nabbing that Bin Laden.

    Well, I've been in training, am outfitted now and ready to help you seek out other terrorists.

    Note my high-tech equipment:
    Flak Jacket - Kevlar and waterproof
    Communication Bee Bops - to receive covert instructions
    Night Vision Doggles - don't need daylight to do my work
    Navy Seal Watch - to synchronize with the rest of the Team

    And think about it - when the bad guys see a Belgian or German Shepherd in a getup like this, they know you guys aren't far behind. But if they'd see me - they'd think it's just some lady playing dress-up with her Chow Chow. Now, that's covert operations!

    I used Wisdom Panel for my assumed Basenji mix. It showed no basenji at all. My boy is 32 lbs and short hair. His DNA says he is 25% American Eskimo 12.5% Boston Terrier 12.5% Chow Chow 12.5% German Shepherd 12.5% Miniature Schnauzer 25% Breed Group-Sporting, Herding, Hound, Terrier. Having owned basenjis all my life I would say my boy has basenji in him by his personality and behavior regardless of what his dna says!!

    I was living in Ghana for a few years and the year before I left had gotten my dog as a puppy from a neighbor. We became so attached, of course, that I couldn't leave him behind. It actually was very easy to bring a dog into the country–only a proof of rabies vaccination was required (surprising since the US has the strictest immigration laws for people!). He has adjusted very well, loves taking walks with a leash (in ghana he would run wild, and follow me around on my bicycle.) He refuses to walk in wet grass, though, which is something I think he shares with basenjis? I didn't post any pictures of how his forehead wrinkles--that's when he looks most like a basenji!

I leave the sledding to the family when they come to stay! You certainly all look as though you're enjoying yourselves.

    Welcome to the forum, you have two nice Dogs. It's possible Art has some Basenji in him looking at the head shot.

    @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...
