Hi there. I would do some DNA testing on him. However, if you go to the Colorado Basenji Rescue website, there is a mix at the bottom of the page. There appears to be some similarities. You could also email Peggy of CBR with your photos and ask her. She has been working with Basenji and Basenji mixes for a long, long time.
Thoughts on Basenji or not

I have never heard of this breed until I saw it on CNN. I noticed that was very similar to a dog I adopted two months ago that was described to me as a lab mix. I started reading about the basenji and saw so many characteristics like the running like a horse, no order, and temperment. Anyone venture to guess if Bailey is a Basenji? Photos attached. Thanks

It would be helpful to know the age of this dog and see the dog standing upright, and a full on side photo.

Sorry, I've provided a link above to a more side view – she is estimated between 4 and 5 months old. Was 8 pounds at 8-10 weeks and currently at 18 pounds.
I'll know the answer to my question in a few weeks as I recently had her DNA tested - results should be back next month.
Thanks for your response.
