Yeah, i dont really understand the primitive category… Most dogs are grouped by their characteristics or abilities, what they were bred to do, .. Primitive just groups them by history, how old the breed is?... They are grouped with podencos and cirneccos which makes sense, but then also with huskies and malamutes and Pomeranians. the result for me is that instead of competing with the whippets and Italian greyhounds I compete with the spitz and Pomeranians, that makes no sense to me...
Which breed is my dog? is he really a basenji?
-
Can someone please tell me which kind of breed i have?
i thought it was basenji but it looks a little different from basenjis.
it has bushy tail and some other characteristics..it can bark as hell..
he is very good at barking :D.. and i know basenjis cant really bark so Can someone pls help me with the kind of breed he is?
!
-
Could be mixed with most anything. About the best you can do to find out is do a dna wisdom panel.
-
I would say he is definitely a basenji.......I have had 2 basenjis that barked.......They just don't bark as often as other dogs.
-
Doesn't look like a purebred, but definitely has Basenji characteristics. Yes, they can bark, but generally only occasionally and never continuously. Generally just once, or once, then a pause, then again. With my dogs, the ones that barked only did it when startled, or on viewing something they were suspicious or nervous about.
-
Could be a mix.... not a purebred..... very handsome however.

@DebraDownSouth okay thank you
-
@jumblie yh i think so but he barks very often. i think he even barks more than some dogs ive owned and thats what made me had doubts he could be a basenji
-
@eeeefarm he can bark continuously..he barks very often and that what confuses me cuz i know basenji barely barks.. but for my dog , he barks very often
-
@tanza thank you

@SmokeyBeatZ-Gh
If you go 45 secs in, you can hear the normal basenji bark... a boof, not bow wow wow of most dogs. -
@DebraDownSouth yh my dog does the "boof" sometimes early in the morning when he sees me..but thats once in a while.. but not often
but he does the "bow wow wow" kind of barking most often.. just like any other dog. he barks better than most dogs i might say -
So maybe a mix. I wish i had done a dna of my chow/coyote with some of the new panels. If you really want to get a good idea, wisdom panel is one of the better ones.

@DebraDownSouth thank u very much dear
-
And if you do get him DNAed, let us know.
