Rescued by the wonderful folks at North Shore Animal League, Kenzie was a wee little pup when we adopted her.
We thought we might have accidentally picked up a cat.
So, according to Wisdom Panel, Kenzie is part Basenji, part Australian Shepherd and part Boxer.
What exactly is a Basenji?
According to the AKC, The Basenji, Africa’s “Barkless Dog,” is a compact, sweet-faced hunter of intelligence and poise. They are unique and beguiling pets, best for owners who can meet their exercise needs and the challenge of training this catlike canine.
Catlike canine.
We were correct. We adopted a cat.
Basenji's have a ton of energy to burn off if they're not properly exercised. Kenzie loves hiking, swimming and running around her grandpa's backyard. But if she goes a day or two without a good workout, we're off to Target to pick up new curtains or window shades!

The folks over at YourDogAdvisor.com do a great job talking about how to propperly care for your basenji:
While a barkless dog may seem the perfect choice for apartment living, these dogs are highly active and need an appropriate outlet for their energy. The especially active owner might get away with keeping one of these dogs in the city with frequent walks, hikes, and trips to the park, but they prefer to have a backyard. After all, chasing squirrels and rabbits is one of their favorite activities.
According to Wisdom Panel, "Some believe these fun-loving and high-spirited dogs started life in ancient Egypt, during the
time of the Pharaohs. Drawings found in Egyptian tombs seem to confirm this theory, which
would make the breed at least five thousand years old. With their small, muscular bodies and
intelligent and alert natures, they’ve gained a reputation for being great hunting and guard
dogs. Though if you want one to guard your home today, don’t expect them to bark. Instead, the
Basenji will make literally any other kind noise – howling, whining, whimpering, growling – even
yodeling."
