SunTurf Dog Grass Pad with Tray, Dog Litter Box, Porch Potty for Puppy Pee Training, Indoor Portable Fake Grass Pee Pad System, Artificial Grass + Pee Pad Holder

Efficace pour la propreté du bébé chien

I live on the 10th floor of a condo high rise and have a 6 lb. miniature poodle puppy! Prior, my daughter had a small dog and trained it to a cat litter box, which worked, but was very messy for 16 years!!!So I did a lot of website searching and decided on this doggie litter box, mainly because of the NO MESS LAYERS. The bottom layer is a sturdy plastic tray with 4 sides for any containment. Then you lay down a training pee pad sized to fit. If you need to, buy a larger size and fold it over to fit. Then add the plastic grate on top. Then add the Astroturf layer at the very top. I change the pee pad twice a week. Once a week, I put the tray, grate and Astroturf in the bathtub and spray it all with 409 that kills 99% of germs. Then I rinse everything thoroughly and set it all out on the balcony to dry out. Then I clean the tub with 409!!!My puppy has actually taken to the doggie litter box and hasn't had an accident outside the box in about a month. She's very particular. So when she poops in the box, she cries to let me know, because she won't pee in the box if the poop is still there!!! This whole system also works out well because of the top Astroturf layer. She easily goes in the grass when not at home.I highly recommend this doggie litter box for puppies and small dogs. I have actually purchased 3 of these boxes once I realized how well it was working for my puppy - one for my condo and one at each of my daughters houses where I travel with my dog for extended stays. Now my dog has the consistency of the pee box when she travels. I sanitize all of the layers of the pee box before I leave my daughters house and it can fit in a trash bag and be tucked away in the closet. It has been a great find!

Edges fall apart so there is blades of fake grass everywhere

I bought this to be used as a potty training place without the grass. I don't have the patience to clean the grass every day, and it gets smelly if you don't. However, for the grate as a potty training place, this is not good.First, the interlacing plastic that lets the pee go to the pad is too thick, so pee remains in the grate. My dog steps on it and there is urine all over the floor. So it defeats the purpose. The grate itself is also very fragile. One of them cracked just with regular cleaning. (I bought 2) I am not a strong lady, and I don't clean things like a hurricane, either. So, this is to say, this is fragile. Vendor, please consider selling the grates separately for replacements like with the grass.The plastic that holds the grate is fabulous and well-made. There is no way your dog will get the pad inside of it. The only problem is that to take the grate out, there is no structure. I had to buy a snake device to be able to lift the grate from its panel. Vendor, redesign to have a place where your finger could easily snug to open this.The grate is quite above the pads, so there is no chance your dog will come in contact with the pad. Which is one of the reasons why I chose this structure actually. The only problem is that - as I sad - the grate is poorly design and pee stays on top of the grate. Vendor, please redesign this so that the pee will flow down for those who want to use it without the grass. Even for those who'd use it with the grass, can you imagine the urine staying there under the grass???? No wonder this can get really smelly.Finally, the last flaw is that there is no rubber under this to make the structure stay put. Yes, it's easily fixed; you can buy rubbers on amazon and put it on the bottom yourself. But come one. The vendor could have thought about this. Vendor, please redesign this to include rubbers at the bottom.Anyway, the star attribution is reduced because of the many design flaws, but I kept some stars just because it's the only structure currently in the market that has some of my requirements as a pad holder with grate.

The bottom tray and the top frame click in almost too well.Which does become a huge issue when you’re trying to clean. You have to work each edge and section to click it out of place and that can be a 5 to 10 minute process and the steaks are high because that pad is full of you guessed it, pee.If this was $35 bucks I wouldn’t have written a negative review.Pro tip:If you end up buying this, take the lower Tray and cut out the lip: it really doesn’t need to click in to be a useable pad holder
