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

Hello from another basenji person from Oregon!

Welcome and congrats. LOL, um you consider you may have "jinxed" yourself with naming him after a killer… Now, when he kills your furniture, belongings etc... slap yourselves on the head for that!
Yes, Debra. But Dexter only kills things with the best of intentions.:D

Welcome to you and Dexter. A Dr. Jo pup - you are very lucky! I can't wait to see pictures of him! hint

Hahaha, wow! How coincidental. Our puppy is named Dexter after the same show!!!

Fran, I have actually met your little man Kipawa. Russ and I got into touch with Dr. Jo through Kevin and Therese. We were going to get one of their puppies but their litter was all spoken for and they asked if we would be interested in a Lukuru pup…the answer of course was "YES!".
We went to their house to meet some pups and for them to met us. Kipawa was in the litter we got to meet and play with.

Thank you all for the warm welcomes…as you can see new to forums so I may have issues posting.
