I used Wisdom Panel for my assumed Basenji mix. It showed no basenji at all. My boy is 32 lbs and short hair. His DNA says he is 25% American Eskimo 12.5% Boston Terrier 12.5% Chow Chow 12.5% German Shepherd 12.5% Miniature Schnauzer 25% Breed Group-Sporting, Herding, Hound, Terrier. Having owned basenjis all my life I would say my boy has basenji in him by his personality and behavior regardless of what his dna says!!
Basenji + Horse = ?

Anubis is absolutely terrified of my horses. I have 3. A B/w Paint (Scout) a Thoroughbred (Jett) and a mustang (Ace). (My parents have like 4 others that are theirs but my 3 have grown up with dogs but Anubis hasnt grown up with horses. He gets his ridge going and gets scared when the lean over the fence to smell and say Hi. Its pretty funny actually. He thinks he can whip every dog (including the neighbors Great Pyreneese who comes around to say Hi sometimes) around but horses hes terrified of.

LOL! I was just reading a post on identifying a basenji mix…
So when I saw this thread I immediately thought the basenji was crossed with a horse... or some big-as-a-horse canine.
Anyway, beautiful photos! And thanks for the [unintentional] chuckle!

And here I thought all Connemara ponies were white! LOL
These are great pics. I love the one of the horse rearing while the B is leaping like a mad thing in the background.
