The ears say Basenji. I have never replied but felt I had to this time. I have a Basenji-Pitbull mix named Daisy. It was Daisy's ears (and behavior) that I discovered her to be part Basenji. I have not found another breed with the ears such as Basenji's have. I'm sure I will get "crap" because I have not had DNA or other testing done but there is no mistaking, Daisy is part Basenji. I think its important to know if your dog is part Basenji because in Daisy's case she is 98% Basenji and 2% pitbull concerning her behaviors and personality. Daisy is 2 years old and it has been quite a learning experience owning such a smart, stubborn, loving, mind of her own, amazing dog! Daisy is a mix but I have to train, teach, go outside to yell out frustrations cause of her (and no I'm not kidding, but never in front of her) and all that goes with a pure Basenji because trying to train her like a normal dog does not work.

Thanks for sharing the story.
My dad and his two basenjis recently made the local paper. We had no idea he had been interviewed until two of my puppy buyers mentioned having seen my dad in the newspaper recently. They were very sweet and cut out the article for me so I could see it since I don't live in the Bay Area. The link doesn't have the photo that went with the article that showed my dad with Cole and Levi, for some reason called Guy in the article.
