Lincoln the Basenji

Show Off Your Dog
  • Not new to the forum, but I felt Lincoln deserved an introductory post as he has now arrived home!!

    Born Feb. 2016 (he is almost 1 year 7 months old)
    Shares his birthday with President Abraham Lincoln
    AKC Champion (now retired)
    27 lbs, 17.5 inches tall

    His favorite things to do are: nap for hours under a warm blanket; watch me from another room by swiveling his head around 180 degrees; running around in circles when he is antsy; and sprinting at full speed around the park.0_1504559041860_Lincoln cave bed 9-4-17.jpg

  • I love the "head resting on hip or spine" looks! Sayblee used to roll her head back, resting the top of her head on her back. I am sad I never got a picture of her.

  • Looks and sounds like a perfect B! Enjoy.

  • If he had a freckles on his underside (and no, um, male parts) he would look just like my female Gossip. She sits with her head curled like that and sleeps just like that !

    You had me confused and then I realized you meant the write up on the other rescue (Okapi)… I like less white also. So I had to go look... wow, coloring reminds me of minpins. :) Cute dog though.

    I agree with the others that although he seems to have Basenji in him - his head is def. not Basenji. As for the leg I'd have it amputated if it troubles him - He'll cope with 3 legs I'm sure, but certainly consult a specialist first. Please keep us updated.

    I wonder weather they like to lie on soil because it absorbs the sun's warmth?
  • Basenji or not??

    Thank you very much for the info. I will have to try the time out. He was crate trained as far as being house broken, but now when I put brownie in the crate all he does is whine.. I do have 2 older dogs. one that plays with him and the other, well he just growls at brownie. The mother that was there when I got Brownie was a white shepard, maybe that is where the broad nose comes in.
