Am I a Basenji Mix?

Show Off Your Dog
  • Hi,

    I just rescued her from a shelter and she's a 6-month-old puppy.
    The shelter said she's a mini Pinscher mix, but I see more of Chihuahua and part Basenji.
    She's timid, doesn't bark yet (who knows), but very energetic when she feels comfortable.
    She's on the smaller side (about 10 lbs but think she will grow.)
    I am going to get a DNA kit to tell what mix she is but just wanted to ask here.
    Her name's Boree and I am already in love with her.!

  • She looks to be an absolute little darling, but honestly I don't see any Basenji in there at all. But in case there is - welcome to the Forum !

  • I don't see Basenji, or Min Pin, or much Chihuahua... I almost want to suggest that she might be part-shepard. Based on the size of her paws, she could weigh in around 20-25 pounds when she's grown. But that's all just guesses. Please let us know what the DNA results reveal! (I always love that part!)

  • I don’t think you are, dang it and I want ALL the dogs to be Basenji! Still… great looking pup. Get a DNA test. If that pup has ANY Basenji in it, I’ll send you a beer. 👊😁👍

    @Mr: I have a question. Our 3 B's are all adoptees (rescues), all are full Basenji, we've had them tested by the Wisdom Panel Purebred Certification Test, but have not the slightest clue as to their bloodlines. What do we do to get them approved for lure coursing? For AKC, look into the ILP program. I have no idea about ASFA, but maybe once you have your ILP AKC number, you can transfer to ASFA

    She was only 16 pounds when I took her to the vet last but I know she is more now. She was also malnourished when we got her, she is gaining weight but she is still skinny. I made a photo album with some better pictures. I'll add more as I'm still searching through pictures on my camera to find some side views. But right now I'm off cause she is complaining that I'm ignoring her and not throwing the ball! :)

    Look at the BRAT mixes: http://basenjirescue.org/DOGS-MIXES/Default.htm Check out Tia. I think that's what you are looking for. :) Then look at Tyson and Shiloh. Not the right coloring, but similar build and coat….
