They are absolutely adorable to live with! People warned us when we got our first pup (we have mature two sisters now) but we fell in love with the breed and have no regrets. You have to be patient, though, with lots of humour, because they WILL test you.
New to the Forum/pretty sure my rescue is part Basenji-

Hi! My name is Angie E. I'm a mother of 3 beautiful kids, a pug-named Brutis and a Pitbull, Corgi, (and we think) Basenji mix- named Reesie. She doesn't "YODEL" ,but when she does bark she almost looks like shes trying to "pucker" her lips up and she'll do this growl thing. She grooms like a cat- both herself and the pug. She nibbles his fur with her front teeth like shes "FLEAING" him. And can leap picnic in a single glide! The Basenji breed is virtually unheard of where we live in Jeffersonville, Indiana. Hopefully, I can gain some insight through the forum and get some reassurance that our Reesie is ,in fact, the Basenji that we've ruled her out to be!! I look forward to meeting some new friends and talking to everyone!!

I have her photos up under an album on my account and in the Basenji Mix Group! I'm just figuring the site out. I'll try to get them over here!! I can't wait until I get input on her either way! Anytime anyone comes to our door, I get 2 questions. #1.) Does "IT" bite? ( grrr!) "Um, no, She doesn't" and then #2.) Oh, well then, " What is "IT"?

Hi Angie,
She does look like a Brindle Basenji. Also i think Basenji's eyes look like they are wearing eyeliner. Hope you and your family are enjoying her and the many wonders of the Basenji breed.
