My boy is a real escape artist, and I mean real - Julius K9, loads that people have recommended as being for 'Houdini dogs'. He also chews through leashes, including a beautiful, very expensive leather and brass….which he neatly chewed into 8 inch lengths when I was foolish enough to leave it below 6 feet up....the only thing I trust my boy to be tethered in is his current harness - a Ruffwear Webmaster. For walking, yes, a martingale (and oddly enough, Butu has never worked the trick when slack), but I'd definitely not trust him tethered. I'd get him one of these, and probably a chain and trust him in an open stall where he can see you and you can chat....I'd make the chain long enough that he could stand in the entrance, but could go inside the stall if he wants a sleep, drink, food from his bowls....do not let him near tack, horses feeding stuff, horse's anything - and I'd be cautious about hay too.... Chealsie508 - have you tried these (Ruffwear Webmaster?) If this hadn't worked I was going for a Ruffwear Doubleback, which costs a serious amount of money (but when I think of the number of useless harnesses I've bought..) but is the nearest thing I've seen to a doggie straitjacket - it's used by those people who drag labradors rock climbing....

Basenji/Beagle mix??
-
Do you think my rescue dog, Millie, is a Basenji/Beagle mix? She is 2 years old, and weighs 18 pounds. She yips, howls, rarely barks, has the curly tail, initially dislikes other dogs that she meets, very territorial, very loving, sleeps a lot, plays very hard, and is very loyal and sweet. I love her to pieces! She does remind me of a cat's personali

Very possible, a dna kit might tell you. Beautiful either way!
-
There is a good chance that she is a Basenji mix... I don't have a solid guess about what she might be mixed with, but I'm curious why you think Beagle(?).
-
What a BEAUTIFUL dog! She is gorgeous! DNA test will verify her lineage. Whatever she is .......who cares - she’s precious!
-
Seems likely, gorgeous!!!! Thanks for sharing.

Love her and her personality to bits. It does not matter what breed she is, if she fits into your family, she is a winner in anybody language. If you need to know, a DNA test will give you clues what you have.

She's gorgeous - Probably Basenji in there somewhere, yes, Beagle though ? only the colouring might suggest it. Try a DNA test if it really matters !
