About Basenji in Fast CAT
Basenjis are ancient African sighthounds that don't bark — and at the 1.5× handicap, their sprint speed converts to surprisingly competitive points.
Competitive Basenjis run 26–30 MPH and earn the 1.5× handicap (most Basenjis measure 16"–17" at the withers). With the multiplier, a 28 MPH Basenji earns 42 points — directly competitive with full-size Whippets on a per-run basis. The breed's top leaderboard sits in the high 20s.
Basenjis are sighthounds in temperament and build, and most take to Fast CAT immediately. The challenge is the breed's independent streak: a Basenji who decides not to chase will simply not chase. Handlers report that successful Basenji Fast CAT careers start with high-drive lure exposure at home before the first trial.
