I know his mother is Lab and Heeler, but the father is unknown.
OMG! What a face!!! I love him!!!
There could be some Basenji!! That curled tail is classic!
Have the vet weigh in because he/she can see what I can't like the hips, jaws, and teeth!!
Post back what you learn!! 100% Heinz 57 adorable in my book!! Wishing you many blessings and adventures together!
I personally think after pulling up photos of the mix breed of Lab & Basenji, I truly believe that your assumption may be correct. Of course you will not know for sure , without DNA.
The present parents may be lab and Basenji but I believe there are other breeds in his past.
He seems to have more Basenji - smooth coat, sharp stand up ears, long smooth nose, curled tail than a lab - in fact I see very little lab but some of that may show up later in his build, height and weight.

Certainly a beautiful dog.
A vet can tell a little more as they can see the face, build, height and weight but only a DNA test will tell you what mixed breeds he has in his background. Some people like having a DNA test as the results give a lot of details about what to expect health wise as your dog gets older.
The most important thing you can do for your pup is to be sure he has all of his shots/vaccinations as these are crucial to his good health.

This is a beautiful dog and you are so lucky to have him. I can see some Basenji in the dog which seems to be more noticeable than the lab in the dog. I do believe the father was a mixed breed and there could be a few other breeds in the dog beside the lab and basenji.
Hi,
Thank you so much for sharing your sweet darling pet! I do see Basenji in him. I remember when we were helping to find a home for another Basenji and this one looks just like him. Does he bark or howl?
Give him a hug from me!
Have a blessed day!

I recently got a Lab Pit mix puppy. I am having trouble training her. She keeps going to the bathroom in my house. I take her out on a regular bases but she continues to keep doing it.
