Yes both parents tested clear for Faconi and come from Faconi-free bloodlines. The breeder also said something about the entire litter having blood work done with a diabetes testing strip to test for something else..? What it is, I'm not sure.

Thanks for the tips

I got Peter from Sharon Schindler in Lexington, Texas.

Yup just freckles. My tri has them on his belly on some parts of his back- I think it's so cute!

Hey everyone- I joined last night (working on the avatar) and just got my little tri-colored basenji, Peter, last week. I live in a third floor condo so by the time I see Peter walking around to go potty, it's a little late to hop in the elevator or run down the stairs without leaving a yellow trail behind.

The Pooch Potty is a patch of sod with a liner that you can put on your balcony that comes in 3 different sizes. Here are some photos:

Basically what I'm trying to find out is if anyone has ever used these, and if not, has anyone ever trained their basenji to go potty on the balcony..? Am I just being lazy? Or is this a plausible idea?

Thanks!
Shane
