So from now on I will be using the litter box for my puppies. I use wood pellets not the dog litter pellets. the wood ones absorb ALL odor and is so easy to clean. and turns to sawdust so I can dump it in the bushes and it gets recycled that way  |
I tried a litter box with one litter of pups. Cat litter boxes are too tall for them to get into, so I had to cut it down on one side. I used puppy litter, it is supposed to be non-toxic for them, but they just scattered the litter all over and ate it (yuck) so I had to go back to the old reliable pee pads.
I think litter training would be a great idea, but I haven't found a way to keep it in the litter box.
