Hi! New here. Meet Charlie. Basenji ?

    Hi! New here .. and new to what I think is a Basenji mix! We adopted Charlie from a kill shelter about two weeks ago. He was listed as a terrier mix & I have been trying to figure him out, but wasn't having much luck until today. I started looking up breeds by color and came across Basenjis! The traits are totally him. We actually always tell everyone how quiet he is & very different from our chihuahua , so I thought it was funny to find that Basenjis are known as the 'barkless dogs'. I am thinking he is a Basenji/Dachshund mix because he has short little legs and at 7 months old , he's only 11 lbs.

    What do you guys think? Basenji mix?

    Thank you Debra. Sayblee is a very good looking dog and I love the way adult Basenjis bodies fill out as adults. I like how the brown goes down her legs too giving the appearance of white socks. I will definitely keep your words in mind should I see any signs of aggression forming as he matures. I can only pray I luck out and he continues to get along well.

    Oh, you could be sooooooooo regretting that last sentence, VERY soon :p:p So you wouldnt mind it if I stole that name from you, really ??? It is a really gorgeous name… I guess the next step is to wait till we meet her, and see if it suits her... I really like Vita, that Basenjimamma just suggested too... Im so confused !!! Good luck with trying to convince your boyfriend, I hope for your sake it does work for you :):). It will be hard to be in Sydney, this weekend, and not have that detour to Kylies, hey !!! Good luck with getting into your home as soon as possible, I dont envy you, all the moving etc, etc ;)
