Shortly after I got my 2 guys, I started house-training them. As they were older, and Pad trained, I was having problems inside. A Trainer told me they were confused about what substrate I wanted them to use. She suggested leaving a tray of grass in their pen when I went out. When I said I had no grass in my yard, she suggested a tray of gravel.
Well, Cora won't walk on any surface that is the least bit pebbled so I knew that wouldn't work. I decided to build a miniature Patio for them. I used a plastic tray that was made for potting plants, and had a bunch of patio bricks cut down to 1/2" thick.
We usually leave it in the bathroom just off our bedroom when we go out. They can get in there from their pen. Last night, we came home from the movies and there were 2 little pee spots on my mini-Patio!! |
