Thank you Debra!! I appreciate you turning him around so all the blood didn't rush to his head in the photo!! 😉
Is this cute guy a Basenji??
-
He's cute. How old is he? He looks basenji to me. His tail looks loose in that one picture, but the other markings look basenji. Lucky you!
-
It is the chiseling (sp?) in the face that sold me…and the shape of the eyes. His tail certainly isn't too loose to be a B. The only thing that gave me a little pause was the shape of the ears.
-
He does look like a basenji BUT the shape of his head and the tail sort of look like a Beagle. The ears are basenji etc it's just the dome look of the top of his head and the shape of his eye and muzzle IMO looks sort of beaglish to me.
So for what it's worth - sure looks like 'mostly basenji' - welcome
-
He is so sweet! Where in OHIO are you? We are always up for a play date if you want to see a basenji, other than your own.
Dash- I would love to meet other basenjis and have Diego play with them! I live near cleveland (about an hour away) Is that anywhere near where you live?? I want to get another B but I'm not ready yet, so I would love to see how D plays with them!!
-
And for whoever asked he is about 2 1/2.. not positive bc he is a rescue guy.. thanks to everyone for commenting..

we were going to try and go to see some b's in cable oh this weekend. She has some Lukuru dogs and Avongara. We are trying to learn more. Anyway, I will PM you. Maybe we can meet up next weekend. I think Quercus is up by Cleveland as well.
-
I would also say he's mostly Basenji if not pure. Perhaps a little corgie mixed in- the ears is what threw it for me. They are just a little larger and wider set than most of the B's I've seen, but they're not so off that he couldn't be purebred.

Welcome…this is a great place to learn and share - and have fun! He sure is cute!!
-
His tail looks just like Abby's tail, hers is not tight curl and most of the time when she lays down it is straight, and she is pure. I think he is a B. Granted I'm not a professional breeder but as long as you love him he can be what you want him to be. I have a mixed breed we call her a miniture black lab, she's pure black has the same fur consistancy but she is small like a terrier and has a curly tail like a B.
-
yep. basenji. I can tell by how obsessed you are with him.
funny creatures, aren't they?
