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

New to the forum but had basenjis for 7 years plus a cross breed undetermined parenthood but a basenji with a fox's tail.
Nobody in Scotland has basenjis- heard of lady in Edinburgh-if you read this get in touch!
Where I live basenjis are shown under 'hounds' no class alone. I did try with my beautiful red & white 'OSCAR' but against every other hound the best we could get was reserve.
However, my tri dog's litter brother qualifiied for CRUFTS as at their show in England they had a basenji class & he was the only entrant! Having said that,
he did not go- loves lure coursing not prancing about.
We have no lure coursing up here but Cody loves to run on the beach & can keep up with the travelling folks' greyhounds,whippets & lurchers. -
Welcome to the forum. There's a wealth of information here, funny basenji stories, and great information on basenji health. You'll enjoy your stay.

Hi, welcome to the forum.
I am from Edinburgh and have one Basenji and two Rhodesian Ridgebacks. We have shown 'Milo' at quite a few Scottish Open shows, mostly in AV classes. There have been a couple of Basenji classes recently in Scotland and there are a couple of other Scottish Basenji owners on the scene now, so hopefully there will be more classes for us.

You may be quite surprised to find just how many people in Scotland have Basenjis - I'm sure the rest of them on the forum will be introducing themselves too!
