@zande I know that I’m lucky to have found him! I hope he feels that he lucked out, too. Actually, I don’t care very much what “mix” he is. I had just never heard of basenjis before my Vet mentioned it. He doesn’t have a long tail - it seems to have been clipped. The barking is only when he hears someone approach my apartment door or if someone comes in that he doesn’t know. I’m working on desensitizing him to the latter. He DOES make noises like the dog in the videos below make & he grooms himself quite a bit. He DOES NOT play with toys. Don’t know if that’s breed specific or just Jack! He also isn’t too active; he’d be happy to sit on my lap or with his face in my arm pit all day!
Suspected Basenji in FB Pic
-
Someone had posted this pic titled All Dogs Go To Heaven on a facebook group. I saved it and such because is it me or is the black and white dog a Basenji? Looks to be it to me!
-
Wish I could see his tail!!
-
I know! Me too!
-
Now isn't that funny, I would say it dosen't look annything like a B. To me that looks like the head of a much larger breed.
-
I see a black and white bull terrier.
But the one in the upper right-hand corner with wings, on the other hand… well, maybe not a B either, but also close?
-
Maybe
Just thought Id post to see what everyone else says lol. Its a gorgeous pic though -
The one in the upper right looks like a Jack Russell or Parson Russell Terrier to me. And I agree, I think it looks like a black and white B on the steps!

Cool picture - and I believe it's a B too.
-
It is a very comforting picture. Thank you for posting it. FWIW, I think it might be a basenji on his way up to get his wings.
-
Your welcome Kipawa! It is extremely comforting. I bet hes going to get his wings soon
-
It reminds me of a Basenji with a Bull Terrier head. There is a black & white Bull Terrier mix at the NYCACC shelter and as soon as I saw the picture it reminded me of him.

The legs are way longer and slimmer than a Bull Terrier, so more like a basenji to me.
-
I agree. It has more of a Basenji build IMO
-
I think it's the eyes that take the B look off, but everything else says Basenji to me…
-
If it is a basenji (looks like it to me) I notice he's not moving up the stairs !
-
Looks too patient to be a Basenji!!! I see Basenji there because of the build - the head might look like a bull terrier because of the wide white blaze!
-
Beautiful picture - looks basenji to me, not quite sure which way to go -
