The Basenji is a small dog solid and with dry muscles. The head is medium in width, not coarse and well chiseled. When he pricks up his ears, wrinkles form on the anterior part of the face, giving this dog its famous "amazed" expression. The queue, tied high, forms one or two rings. The Basenji does not bark, but rather makes a yodel noise. It also howls, growls and crows, depending on the dog's mood.
