Eldorado does litter box train and they were always very successful at it when I visited..I know they line the outside of the box with newspaper too..so I would make sure to do that also so she's as familiar with the process as she can be. I would suggest if you can't get her to start using it for pooping soon to just get her a coat and start outside. The longer she goes without pooping where you want her to the harder it'll be when you need to change it. Bad habits develop fast. I wish I started Oakley outside right away versus litter training. He always would pee in it but he wouldn't poop in it. He got very used to pooping next to the box on the kitchen floor and to this day prefers going on hard surfaces. I know it's hard to imagine potty training outside in this weather but you might be better off in the long run.
I'm not against the litter box, I also have an eldorado pup; I just know the entire process would've been easier and more beneficial to is both if I braved the weather and did it in the first plAce
Hi. We’re new here

Hello everyone. My name is Kenny, and our two Basenji‘s are named Zinga & Zulu. They are tricolor. We had two Basenji’s before them which were red/white. Their names were Graham and Ginger. We love the breed. We have a YouTube channel called BarooBoos where we post videos of our pups. I just found this forum recently. I’ve mainly been involved on Facebook and Reddit, but I’m always happy to find another place to talk about Basenji’s.

Welcome to the forum!

Thanks! I’m surprised that I didn’t know about it sooner.

Welcome. My first basenji was a black and white, then 3 reds, and a tri. Lost my 17 year old female a year and a half ago, she was a red and white. Zak is 15 1/2 is red and white and semi deaf. Mr.T (aka T or TT) is my tri boy. He is 8. We would love to see some pics of pups. There are lots and lots of basenji groups on Facebook. How old are your pups?

Welcome!

give them hugs for all of us Basenji folks.

Do you live in the States? There is a new Facebook group called Basenji (North America). I went to You Tube and saw your precious pups. How cute are they! 3 1/2 you are going to have lots of fun with them! Wish mine were young like that again. But mine don't get into trouble so much anymore............except for T, as he's only 8 and will still mess with you, given the chance.
