The basenji is a central African hunting dog. It comes from a country
called Chad, which is north of the Central African Republic. The basenji was
well-known as the “silent dog” because for centuries no basenjis had ever been
known to bark (吠). Then at a dog show in London in 1953, a basenji actually
barked.As well as being clever, basenjis are known for their natural courage and
are still popular hunting dogs in Africa. But in America people keep them mainly
because they are gentle and full of fun. The basenji has an unusual habit; it
washes itself all over like a cat. It is a middle-sized dog, 16 or 17 inches
higher from the shoulder. It weighs about 20 pounds. A basenji’s coat is short
and silky. It may be brown, white, or gold, or a mixture of these three
colours.
