I cannot imagine committing to buy a puppy without seeing the animal and if possible the sire and dam. OTOH, a rescue (or adoption of an older dog) is a different thing. My last two Basenjis came to me sight unseen, and turned out to be wonderful dogs, but the breeders I got them from wanted to place their dogs in an experienced Basenji home, and I only paid the cost of getting the dogs to me. One came by air, one was personally transported to me by his breeder. If she hadn't been happy with what she found I expect she would have taken him back with her when she left. I also had to commit to return him if ever I couldn't keep him. Good breeders care about where their dogs end up.

Lovely pups - you must be proud of them!

How very cute!

Actually they are not mine - they belong to a friend in Texas but thought puppies playing is always fun!

Here is my Portuguese Podengo Pequeno Inderia playing with Sarge the basenji had to add the tropical music cause the snow is just killing me.

So, so adorable..Love'em.

Thought you might enjoy the antics of the PPPsmooth puppies - I think they are around 4 months here. Sort of shorter basenji looking more long than square -
These are in Texas.

And if you are at a dog show look for the March Sight and Scent - I have a couple of ads in there for my pequeno and one of my bigs.
Hi dmcarty,
I read another post you wrote (this year) about the Portuguese Podengos and became curious as I saw that The Pequenos look a lot like the dog we are fostering. I was just wondering if you think she might be one. She was listed as a Chi/Basenji mix but with the help of the forum, we concluded that she looked corgi….that is until I saw pictures and videos of the podengos. Thanks!

I see some Beagle in there possibly, too!

That is what I thought too…..beagle!

The body and tail remind me of a Beagle and the head of a Toy Fox Terrier or Chi.

It was a treat watching those pups in action so thanks for sharing this video link with others also. Like to say I have few French Bulldog puppies and they have demonstrated to be very pleasing for children and elderly sue to their friendly nature and smooth temperament.
