People post mixes here and on Facebook all the time thinking the are a basenji or a mix.. This one is one of the few that really might be! She's probably mixed but I have seen purebred capped basenjis and ones with heavy ticking. A dna test would be interesting!
Her ears look a bit more rat terrier than basenji and the breeds have such a similar look that they get mistaken for each other a lot. I have a friend with a red/white standard rat terrier (show dog) who had a docked tail and is constantly mistaken for a basenji.

Adorable tri's!
How do they all get along?

Absolutely precious pictures. What lucky Basenjis to have found you.
-
Yes they do play well together. We have the Basenji-500 that turns into the Basenji Smackdown everyday when we get home from work. The only time I need to split the girls up is around 9:00 PM when they start getting snarky but thats about the time they go bed anyway.

BUT…Bring sharing the bed into the equation and I find the the twirl and plop into a ball to be highly preferable. There's nothing like being woken up by four B paws pushing into your back, haha. And before you know it a mere 22 lb B has you on the edge of the bed...

Lucky basenjis, your foundling and his two 'sisters' are all beautiful. Glad you all found each other!
