My yorkie learned to use this quickly. He was on pee pee pads at the time, but quickly learned to go on the UGODOG. I don't ever have to buy pee pee pads again. He simply goes pee on the UGODOG throughout the day and at night when he's made his last final potty, I simply pour the pee into the toilet, spray the UGODOG with Lysol, and rinse it in the tub under hot water. Cleaning the poo can be a bit messy because it can get stuck in between the grates, but a simple solution I found out is to place a tissue paper underneath my yorkie when he is about to go. Then I simply fold the tissue paper over and flush it down the toilet. If I don't feel like cleaning the UGODOG, I also take him out to go poo. My yorkie uses it mostly to go pee. Anyways, i think it's amazing. You will definitely never have to buy pee pee pads again! | |

| Okay, whoever just got their Ugodog, did you have hard time transitioning them from peepad to the Ugodog. I've had the Ugodog for almost 2 weeks and I have to say I'm just really frustrated and am about to give up. Over the last 2 weeks, I've done everything possible to make the transition as smooth as possible such as.... - smearing some of the urine on the grate... - putting peepad underneath and covering only one side with the grate... - removing one of the grate and putting on top of one side of the peepad on the peepad holder After doing all of this, it seems like Cassiopia is doing everything at all cost to avoid peeing on the grate or even on the partially exposed peepad. If anything, I think she's definitely regressed on her potty training and have had quite a few accidents (peeing on the bathroom floor, hallway floor, etc). Any suggestions....

| Ugodog When I brought Molly home the breeder had them in a run and they went on paper at the end of the run. She wouldn't go on a pee pad. So we just used paper. Then when I got the UGO I put paper on top and kept making the area covered smaller until the paper was gone. Maybe if you keep picking them up and putting them on the UGO and stand there that might help... Seems like whats easy for one doesn't always work for the other.. I'm sorry you are having a bad time.

| Hi there, Sorry to hear about your troubles. I bought some sort of scented pee drops as well with the WizDog (similar to UGODOG) and dropped them on the newspaper as Rocky was used to pee pads (he still uses pee pads while out visiting family members). This worked well, maybe because Rocky wanted to cover up the scent of the scented pee drops. Of course we give him lots of "Good Boy, go potty!" praise and a teat when he goes in the right spot. We put the paper under the grate right away and put the drops on top - and placed the WizDog right where the pee pad used to be. Good luck! Quote:

Thanks. I think I'll try to give it go next week. Right now she's so confused as to where she should go potty. Yesterday, I've decided to switch back to her peepad and she's having accidents left and right and has finally started to go on her peepad this morning. Perhaps the Ugodo (or WizDog) might not be for her. Poor little Cassi she must be so confused.

I've tried putting the peepad on top of the Ugo, but for some reason I don't think she likes the feeling of the grate underneath her feet and have been avoiding it at all cost. Perhaps it has something to do with her being smaller, she's 3.8 lbs.

Missing Yoshi Everyday! Donating Member | i don't think that is a factor because yoshi is only 4 lbs and MeiLing is only 3.9 lbs (and still growing)... also i still have a maltese puppy that is awaiting her new home that is only 3 lbs

Thanks, that's good to know. I'm going to try and re-introduce the Ugodog again next week. Wish me luck.

| I got a Ugodog about 2 months ago for my Yorkie. He has been trained on puppy pads so what I do is put a puppy pad on top of the Ugodog. He doesn't really notice that it is anything different. What i do like is that now his urine doesn't soak through to the floor. This was a big problem for me and eventually your floor will smell bad and you won't be able to get it out. (I just replaced my floor!) He took to it pretty well so I am happy with the purchase. |
