Ntomba Mobengi Imported March 5, 2010 DESCRIPTION ACCOMPANYING BCOA APPLICATION FOR SUBMITTING NATIVE STOCK Bengi was found in the hunting and farming village of Bokelekila (Bokele) in the DRC, which is 7km inland and east of the Maringa River, by Kajju. Kajju is a Lomako Reserve Park Guard we asked to find Basenjis for us while we were in the Reserve. He selected seven puppies. Bengi was one of three we chose from this group. Mobengi means hunter in Lingala. Ntomba is the name of the Mongo people who live along the Maringa river between Basankusu and Djolu. What drew me to Bengi when I first saw him was his head. He had such nice almond shaped eyes, dark eye rims and nose. Nicely hooded ears with good wrinkling between them when he has his ears up. He has correct proportion between the muzzle and skull and both are level with the other. He originally had only masking on his muzzle but when he started losing his puppy coat then masking on his forehead became more apparent. Teeth even with scissors bite. Now that he is near two years in age his size and weight is the same as a female according to the standard. His appearance though says, here is a male! He is slightly longer than tall. He has white feet, chest, and some white hairs on the tip of his tail. His coat is short with no undercoat and covers a pliant skin. His coat color is light but a genetic coat color test performed by Vetgen determined he was Ay/at, a tri factored red. His tail has dark marking on it also indicating he is tri factored and is set high. Neck is of good length and descends into a chest with good width. Level top line. Good moderate laid back shoulder with fine straight legs supported by small compact oval feet with well arched toes. Hindquarters are well muscled and moderately angulated with good length of second thigh. His temperament is not aloof at all. He is not shy at approaching people but will focus more on a dog than humans if one is with them. He is friendly with most dogs except intact males. If he meets someone he has come to know and really like, then he greets them with a baroo and a furiously wagging tail. He has displayed some of the traits of the Basenji, like licking people and dogs dry if they are wet and not liking to get wet or walking on wet grass. The few times he has had a chance to do practice lure coursing he has shown intensity and drive to follow the lure. At home he also has shown his interest in hunting by trying to go after the squirrels who go along the fence. We have come to call him the Little Napoleon because he has now thinks he is almost the top male dog in the pack.
