    @CrazyBasenjiMom said in Hey there! Meet Tars!: He mostly basenji, but not full, he doesn't have the ears, t he tails a give away too, is it curly? 23 is kinda heavey for a Basenji full grown, I wish 23 was heavy for a full grown Basenji, but it really is not. In fact it's in the middle with many weighing much more. I have seen some pretty large poorly bred, but also some big ones who were largely African years ago in NC at the nationals. I have seen a lot of basenjis whose tails were not right also, so that doesn't eliminate being basenji. But obviously no way to know for sure. I'd go with mix also, especially if those ears aren't fully erect soon. In ears...they SHOULD be up... but that isn't always true even of registered basenjis: https://www.basenji.org/african/lubb0001.htm One major break from the early development trend is African puppy ears. Both domestic & 3/8 litters had upright ears in approximately a week, while the Africans took much longer. In fact, 2 puppies went to their new homes at 15 weeks of age and their ears were not consistently up although they did finally come up; Roos between 17 & 18 weeks and Roosters by 4 months. <<

    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?

    I agree across the board. DaysiefromBenin, my older dog (Ty) takes one sniff of a cooked egg and he's out the dog door puking. The smell alone puts him over the edge. Both mine have occasional ETS if they snarf all their food early morning. I use a cheese slice on a cracker and that stops the tummy grumble and tendency to vomit. (Tyler's tummy can sometimes be heard from over 5 feet away)

    It was nice of you to adopt him anyway (even if no basenji in him). Cute looking nevertheless.
