basenji
/bəˈsɛndʒi/
noun
- A breed of dog from Central Africa, known for being small, short-haired, and not barking (but making a yodel-like sound).
- The basenji is often called the 'barkless dog' because it makes a unique yodel instead of a bark.
- Our basenji loves to climb and explore like a cat.
- Basenjis are intelligent but can be stubborn, making training a challenge.
