Did you know? Due to its unusual larynx producing a yodel-like sound, the Basenji is known as the “barkless dog”.

Originating from Africa, this hound of sorts with its erect ears shares traits of the pariah dog groups, such as the dingo and New Guinea singing dog. At full stride, this hunting dog can track down any bird, while resembling the beauty of a racehorse.

It’s no wonder the Basenji, with its shiny coat and a tightly curled tail, wrinkled forehead, and longing eyes, has a cult following.

Here, we find some of the most striking Basenjis of Instagram.
