The Basenji originated in the Democratic Republic of the Congo as a hunting dog. The breed has several unique features, including its short, thin fur and its unusual yodel-like bark. Often called a bark-less dog, the Basenji’s muffled vocalizations are due to its uncommon larynx shape. These dogs have endearing pointed ears and short, curly tails, and though they prefer warm weather they can enjoy the cold as long as they stay active. The Basenji is not the best choice for a multi-pet, multi-species household, but it can be trained to socialize positively with other dogs.
