Meet Jody (Jojo)


  • We adopted Jody from an animal shelter almost a year ago. They told us she was between 6 and 8 yrs old.!They said she was Basenji mix. She has straight tail, barks (alot), and weighs about 34 lbs. Every once in a while she makes a rattling sound in her throat. We are planning to do a dna test on her. 0_1516461496190_jo.jpg

  • What a coincidence... the Garner TX animal shelter (?) has a dog that looks like a twin to yours... They originally called her "Tiny" and claimed she was Basenji - they have since changed her name to "Cami". It's almost easy to see why they would think Basenji from the ears and the markings. I can't imagine what the mix really is though... please let us know what the DNA tests reveal. Thanks!

    @doggonecrazy said in Meet Rambo!: Did you check for connected toes? Also, I would like to know a reputable dog DNA company who includes Basenji in their database. Typically, the more dogs in their testing, the more accurate. Thus far, Mars Wisdom Panel 3 has the largest group, including basenji and coyote and breeds most the others don't, making it the most affordable and most accurate UNLESS you want to pay out $200. In which case the newer Embark seems truly spectacular. Whatever you use, make sure they have basenji in their data bank. Most don't. http://www.dogbreedidentifier.com/embark-dog-dna-test-revi…/ http://www.theverge.com/…/embark-dog-dna-startup-disease-ri… http://fortune.com/2015/06/25/dog-dna-tests/

    Thank you all so much! That is one of the nice thing when you sail a ship, every time we can explore a new nature and when we found a place like this, we can't wait to be there again soon!!! :D Ryan also loves nature, he is a true tree hugger, he wants to feel a tree and sometimes he gives a little kiss at that three :)
