Looking for dark brindle picture…


  • Thanks for the compliments! I love her showing her off… I'm sure nobody around here understands that 😉 We get LOADS of compliments at the park with the two of them. They are really striking together, and so few people have ever seen real live basenjis.

    I just put up her puppy pics, too.


  • Lovely coloration.
    I am very fond of brindle b's!


  • Your girl is indeed very dark but I have seen one brindle who was darker still. Solo was born to a local breeder and when I saw her a couple days after birth, finding any red in her coat was a challenge. She is indeed a brindle though the extreme width and unclear pattern of her striping is a fault as per the AKC breed standard. Both of her parents were very dark brindles.

    At 10 weeks:

    And a headshot, showing a glimmer of red:


  • Wow, that is one dark brindle.
    Myself, I think form and structure is so much more important than color…
    course, I am not a breeder.
    Lovely dog, no matter what the AKC says!


  • ooooohhh. I want one of the dark/liver brindles sooo bad.


  • We haven't come across many brindles that are so dark. We love it. But now Andrew wants one of the light brindles & I want a tri so we're arguing…. there's a tri up for adoption on BRAT in our area, but I haven't convinced him yet.

    Tri is certainly my favorite!


  • Mine too 🙂 I love all the colors but i lean alittle more towards the tri 🙂


  • We joke that we are going to collect the whole set. We still need a light brindle, black & white, tri, trindle….....

    That dog is BEAUTIFUL. Have you seen anymore with that coloration? I would love to have a light brindle or b/w but that would satisfy me and we could move onto a Tri or Trindle.

  • Your pup Lola is very pretty. I don't have a basenji yet, and I don't post often, but when I was looking through posts I saw pictures of a dark brindle like Lola from a member I think named WBL, don't think she has posted in awhile; she has a very handsome dark brindle male

    Thanks! Those are the ones I was looking for! Appreciate the help.


  • Hmmm - I posted a baby puppy pic with puppy in a hand that was dark brindle, and I think I posted pics of Foxy and Cami and Cami is a very dark brindle so the pic was of a red and a brindle.
