    Hello Basenji Owners!

    I recently rescued my puppy, Amelia, from the Humane Society last month. She is now 5 months old. I chose her because of her one blue and one brown eye! She was so playful, energetic and quite the cuddler!!

    After much research, I think I have concluded that Amelia is a Basenji mix. She has the ears, the forehead wrinkles and the coloring, but she is missing that distinct curly tail! I adopted her having no idea what she was and having never heard of the Basenji breed. This is all new to me!

    If anybody has any advice or insight, please share! Does she look like a Basenji to you? What is the temperament of your Basenji?

    Thank you!

    Casey (Amelia's Mom)

    Thank you, Rhonda. We will try not to get our feelings hurt that she isn't ears-back, tail-wagging at us all the time!

    @Ricky_F: we have no idea what he is. The rescue told us he is some sort of basenji mix. But they have no idea about the parents either. He was found as a stray when he was maybe 8 weeks old. At the end it doesn't matter what his genetics is, we love his personality! He is very cute and you are right, in the end the fact that he is a great family addition is the most important thing…. welcome

    wow! Uzie speaks volumes about how good are you with him :-) Vito has a sweet temper, amazing thing considering that a masting bite and broke his jaw when he was a puppy, now he is healed from that but get a little bend on the jaw but eats and has a good bite. I had a question about him, i brush well my brother brush him and get a ton of fur i brush my girls and get nothing.. seems like he has double or strong fur.. and is not like hers. im wondering what kind of fur basenjis has? double coated is possible?

    Yes, you have really worked hard to do right by Medjai. He is lucky to have an owner willing to work so hard to stay up to date and in touch with the basenji community to provide the best for him.
