Dear Tekkster, you really should have experience, or else the many problems that arise from an untrained human result in a very fustrated Basenji!!! If you want entertainment, I just happened to have recently run into a lady with two hairless dogs. Talk about being entertained! The care needed is just like your own skin, lotion and sunblock, and putting clothes on them is recommended! Read the treads on this site and BRAT. Sooooooo many B's are given up by untrained and inexperienced humans! Good Luck in your search!
URGENT B mix will be PTS

Look up Decker Terriers..they used basenjis in the early breedings. We pulled one up our way, and the personality was so different from a basenji we started checking around.
They are neat dogs…imo, behavior wise closer to a jack Russel... -
Yes, I think either collie mix or decker mix…can see aussie too..his foster mom is familiar with deckers so we'll see what she says..either way he is out of there and safe..

Here is Pippin with Jack..

Indeed, I totally forgot about Deckers. Wow however, look at those "pointed" ears!!!
-
I think he's a purebred Decker. Very cute.
-
My thought was he was purebred Decker as well, but I don't know the breed enough to be sure.

Do the Deckers have ears pointed like that?
-
I think he very well might be too…I don't know enough about them though...his new foster mom is a decker terrier owner and she is pretty confident he might be too....time will tell.
-
The photos I have seen show very upright ears..

Most seem to stand up -
Here is a breeders webpage and it has a video on it. Some of their dogs look so much like Bs but with the docked tail.
