Is this a Basenji?
-
I would say a little basenji in him however he is DEFINATELY a mix. possibly a pariah dog. im not sure, he sure is an interesting mix. VERY cute tho!
-
either way he's very cute. and if, by chance, he's not a basenji X, I'd think pariah dogs share enough traits with basenjis that you could learn a lot by hanging around and we could learn from you. So, welcome!
-
I think he is absolutely adorable, no matter what he is. IMO he has a little bit of a basenji look, but if I had him I wouldn't care what breed he was. You have obviously found yourself a wonderful companion! Oh, and welcome to the forum! Glad to have you and Tag here!
-
He is a really cute dog, sounds like a basenji mix, has the mannerisms, that last photo of him on the fence if very basenji-like!
-
I agree with Kipawa - he is a lovely boy whatever andf I'm sure whether basenji in him or no you love him just the same!!
Without seeing him in the flesh I wouldn't like to give an opinion whether there is Basenji in him.
Welcome to the forum.

I think you must have a mix there, he has the waistline, larger breast bone, some wrinkles on the forehead, some curl to tail, size, I don't think full-blooded though b/c he lacks a white tip tail, and the brown color, but he is very loving looking, and my B sleeps like him also. Whatever, I would treat him like a Basenji since he has alot of the mannerisms. Sweet!
-
Whoever and whatever he is, he is adorable - he does sleep like a basenji, and he's welcome, as are you, to the forum.

Yeah I've been doing some research on the Pariah dog and I do see the similarities but the weight is completely off…. He's 21lbs pariah dogs are 45-60lbs.

Here is my little pup. I love him very much and he is my best friend.
Info:
Tag, Now at 1.5 years old
Male @ 21lbs
Got him from the Atlanta Humane Society
-They said he was a German Shepherd
All muscle
Very Fast
Loving
He has a single loop tale
Short Fur, no shedding
No Bark, but yodel.
Wrinkle in the forehead
Basic behavioral patterns that match a pure bread basenji.Weird thing is that he has all brown fur. LMK what you guys think.
Mischievous as they are.
looks like a croos but he is so cute….
-
A cute mix…but I do see some b in him!
-
I believe i see some B in him.. he's so adorable Love the pic with him looking at u from the side and also the one with him sitting like he's waiting for a cookie .. :)
-
That's a definite Basenji pose!!! very cute!
-
The yodel would indicate basenji in there for sure, lol but wow that is one incredibly cute dog! Bless you for rescuing.
-
So many of those poses and positions are the same things I see Paco do. I'm also no expert, and Paco's my first dog that's mine-all-mine for me to watch all the time, but I feel like Tag's face is very Basenji-like…and if he yodels as well...
if he doesn't have Basenji in him, I'd at least say you could describe him to others as a Basenji-like dog.
