Basenji dog breed belongs to the hound group and they are used as pets or for exhibitions and contests. These dogs have a normal dog diet. However, they love to steal food, and therefore they may easily gain weight. Basenjis have a lifespan of ranging from 9-15 years. They have about four cubs per pregnancy. How do these barkless dogs look like?

They are small to medium-sized dogs with soft fur and a curved tail. They are not too bony and they give the general feeling of a compact, gracious animal. They are unique due to the fact that they are the only dogs in the world which do not bark. However, they make all the other dog sounds and they growl when they are happy.

Basenjis originate from the pariah dogs and have particular features of this dog group. They were initially raised as company dogs for Pharaohs. There are portraits of this breed on the pyramids.
