I am pretty sure you can't just look at a mix and declare what it is. Scientific studies have debunked that over and over. Best to do a DNA test, in my opinion. I have a mix who was advertised as a Basenji Mix, and her DNA results confirmed it. If you just looked at her and made a judgement, it would be mixed: her color was all askew, her tail was half-curled, she was smaller and featured more slender face and feet than a pure-bred B.
But, apparently, the 1/4 Min Pin (the ONLY other DNA in her sample) contributed some significant traits. Behavior and personality wise, Basenji rules the day. Again, I recommend a DNA test, and they improve by the day.
What is this other B identity thing that is mentioned in this thread? Is it also a DNA test, or something else?
Oh, and hey, your baby is way cute!

We hooked up with Yodeldogs, Mauigirl and had an impromptu basenji meet-up a couple weeks ago. The pups had a blast while we cooked up a little barbecue. Needless to say everybody slept very well that night!

It was a bit of a rocky start but once the "kids" decided to get along they had a great time. The company was fabulous and the food was wonderful. Thanks again for having us over.
The pics turned out fantastic! I especially love the one where Tug is chasing Dolce and she is looking back at him. Very cute!

how about some infornation about him...it might help to find him a home!!!!!Tug has been posted before in the Available section. I couldn't find his listing quickly, since there hasn't been any posts to it in awhile it has probably just become a little buried.
