Another possibility might be Rat Terrier. They do come in brindle, although that colour is out of favour. There is one in my neighbourhood that has a bit of a Basenji look to him, and his tail is very short.......not sure if it's natural or docked.
Basenji Breed?

@trooper Hard to say. More pictures, including standing up and sitting are needed.

Welcome, very cute but I don't see Basenji....perhaps another type of sighthound breed

@trooper Not purebred basenji, but possible some basenji. The nose looks too long and the ears are a little different I think. However the legs, paws, nails, chest and expression all looks Basenji like. Check the paw pads, if they are joined as you see in this thread, then he is probably a Basenji mix.

It’s a sweet thought but I see no basenji in this dog. Enjoy him for what he is.

He is absolutely beautiful, no matter what he is!!!!! XOXOXO
