Thank you so much for the warm welcome words at the Forum! I was very inspirit by my friend Steve, and think about my new puppy basenji. Although I read that basenjii is not for everybody dog, and it may be challenging however I seriously want to find my own Besenjii friend and to give him the name Kovu in honor of my friend's dog.
Thanks again for your warm words!

Hello, what do you think my Basenji is mixed with…?
-
My mother rescued her in 2000 and my wife and I took ownership in Feb of 05. Our vet think she's (Annie) Basenji w/ Sharpie? What do you experts think? Here are some picks and a link to Dogster:)

I can't say I have a clue what a Sharpie is - other than a permanent marker
Looks basenji - ish. How tall is she - does she bark - what does her tail look like? -

Looks basenji - ish. How tall is she - does she bark - what does her tail look like?Her tale is strait not curled and she does howl with us only if we get involved…she barks kind of weird and when she does not want to be bothered she "sneezes" at my wife and I. She is about2 feet tall 40ish pounds.

She looks a lot like the Thai ridgebacks I have seen
-
Very much so Andrea…. Thai ridgeback.... that would be my guess too...
-
wow she really looks like one…but I had 3 vets plus the Humane society say she is more or less mixed with Basenji....plus the things she does is Basenji like sneezing...30 min hyperness etc....
-
Whatever she is, she is adorable!

Well, the main thing that looks Basenji-ish about her is her general shape…and that is common among many breeds of what we call "pariah" or "primitive" breeds. She doesn't have some of THE hallmark breed traits like white feet and chest, curled tail, being a smallish dog. Usually, even in mixed breeds those things come thru. The sneezing thing is not particularly basenji. Many dogs sneeze as a calming signal when they are mildly nervous, or being reprimanded.
It *would be pretty unlikely for her to be a Thai Ridgeback, as there just aren't any of those around. But most likely she is several generations of mixed dogs, and her type has kind of gone back to the original primitive dog shape.
Regardless, she is a really pretty dog, and you are welcome here

I agree with Andrea. She's very cute though.
-
Welcome, she's beautiful!
-
She has very much a head shape of a Belgian Malinois-also a bit of the colour-whatever, she's cute and welcome!
-
Thank-you all…...what ever she is she my baby......my wife gets jealous sometimes lol.:rolleyes:
-
Hello and welcome. I agree with everyone… no matter WHAT she is, she's a cutie!!

I certainly have…it is a real pain to get the pen off of the dog, and the couch that she chewed it on! Ivy prefers black sharpie...that way it matches her I suppose, kind of like an accessory, but she isn't picky, she will chew blue, red and green as well
Forgot to respond to that the first time I saw it

Welcome…I agree with Andrea as well...she is a pretty girl...
