I thought it was amazing to train my small dog how to use a litterbox! She adapted well , and to make things better she doesn't have to hold it during bad weather or when I'm gone! When I started telling people they laughed,and found it cute. Do you think it's weird? Would you try this method?

I never heard of anyone doing that, but I think it's a wonderful idea! I don't think I'd have the patience to train a dog at all anymore. If I did, yes I would definitely try for that with a small doggie. I think it's a brilliant idea.

@Bella27 Lots of them don't want to go out in the rain, I hear about that all the time

@CinnamonGrl yeah bad weather sucks especially while your standing there like hurry up. But Sarah my dog wouldn't potty outside at all. Only when she came back in. The first week I had her i knew she wasn't going to learn! So when I did switch her to the box, she loved it.lol

Actually I had a friend get a dog last year and her dog was huge. She rescued from a kill place. Long story short she had a empty bedroom and her husband built a sandbox in there and she ran with my idea! I tried to use sand for my dog it didn't turn out well. So I am stuck spending more money on non harmful hamster paper ball bedding as litter. Its basically nothing but balled up tiny newspaper! It works well

I would definitely try it. Going to tell my niece about it. She has a little dog, too.

Yeah everytime you see them having an accident just drop them in box! I had to make sure she would stand in the box for a entire minute each time she had an accident! Eventually she started jumping in, before I knew it maybe two weeks time, she was sliding across the floor running to it.

I have never heard of this before but if it works then why not. It is much better then having the dog going somewhere in the house but nobody is there to let her out. I think it is a great idea.

@Happy2BeMe well I was looking online for doggy litter boxes because as she grew she out grew Her box. I found one that was her size fairly decent price. As I was looking i came across huge litter boxes, but the price on them was pricey! But they do have them for big fellas.

I think it is a dang good idea @Bella27 . I don't think it would have worked for my 150 pound Akita though.
