Agalu a Basenji akhalapo kwa zaka masauzande angapo. Amatchedwanso galu wosalankhula wa ku Africa chifukwa chochititsa chidwi cha mtundu uwu ndikuti m'malo mowuwa panthawi ya nkhawa, komanso kukwiya Basenji kumatulutsa phokoso. Anthu omwe akuganiza zopeza galu ayenera kulabadira nyamazi. Mtunduwu unapangidwa paokha, popanda kulowererapo kwa anthu kapena sayansi, ndipo ndizosangalatsa kwambiri kukhala ndi Basenji ngati mnzake.
#1 Ndi mtundu wosaka womwe kwawo ndi ku South Africa.
Kukula kwake muzochitika zachilengedwe kwapatsa Basenji minofu yayitali yosalala yomwe imalola kuti isunthe momasuka ndikugwirizanitsa mayendedwe ake bwino.
#2 Chovalacho ndi chachifupi, chonyezimira, chokhuthala komanso choyandikira thupi. Mitundu isanu ndi umodzi imadziwika padziko lonse lapansi:
Wakuda-woyera, Wofiyira-woyera, Wakuda-woyera ndi wofiira (wofiira-mtundu wa kirimu), Wakuda, Wofiirira-woyera, Kambuku (kumbuyo kofiira, mikwingwirima yakuda). White imapezeka pamapazi, pachifuwa, ndi nsonga ya mchira.
#3 Bweretsani Zosiyanasiyana
Pali mitundu iwiri: yoyera ndi yoyera. Yoyamba ndi yokulirapo, pafupifupi 40 cm imafota, miyendo yayitali, yofiirira yoyera. The Plains Basenji ali ndi "kolala" yoyera yomwe imadutsa mbali ya chifuwa, kukhala ndi maonekedwe a "thalauza". The Forest Basenji ndi yosakwana 40 cm mu kufota, osati popanda chifukwa mtundu uwu amatchedwa Pygmy galu. Maso awo ndi akuda kuposa agalu akuchigwa, komanso mtundu.
