UGODOG Indoor Dog Potty Does anyone have this? Some info about product: Product Features UGODOG Indoor Dog Potty is designed to make clean up simple, easy, and certainly mess free without burdening the environment UGODOG has a solid base that will support any canine, regardless of breed or size UGODOG uses two smaller, removable, fitted grates rather than one large one to make cleanup of the grates easier and more convenient. The UGODOG grids are specifically designed and engineered to support dogs and accomodate their delicate paws. The beams of the UGODOG grids are thick and convex in shape to cushion dog's paws. The UGODOG grates also allow the pooh to settle on top making clean up easy and mess free. Simply lift the grate with the pooh on it and drop the pooh in a recycled waste bag and throw away. The grates allow for your pet's paws to remain dry as the urine passes through the cubed openings and on to the base below where canine pee pads, or more preferably newspaper, absorbs the urine and odor. I have thought about trying this. It recieved mostly good reviews. I think I would just like to train her inside but I don't know if i could deal with the odor.:thumbs up |
Ugodog :D Hi! I've been training my 4 month old Yorkie, Hobbes, to use the Ugodog for the past month since I brought him home. I'll try to share some insight (but keep in mind Hobbes is not fully potty trained yet). Okay, so Hobbes was originally paper trained-ish by his breeder, but he still had many accidents when I brought him home and tried to train him to keep going on the newspaper which I had put in a pee pad holder. Then I switched to the Ugodog, but I put a sheet of newspaper in front of the Ugodog and half a piece over the grating to try to ease the transistion. With this setup I've been using the normal training technique of constant vigilance (whenever possible) and positive reinforcement when he goes in his spot. After about a month, I'd say he is 85% "accident" free and improving every day. Every few days, I give Hobbes a slightly smaller newspaper area around the Ugodog by tucking it under. I'm hoping that eventually he will not need the newspaper in front or on top any more and he will just go right on the grate. At any rate, it's very convenient even with him peeing on the newspaper on top because it doesn't soak through to our floors, instead, if it leaks through the first piece of paper it goes through the grate and is absorbed by the paper underneath the grating. Generally, I think the Ugodog is great for training a mostly-indoor dog because it's pretty easy to clean and it doesn't look bad either (compared to other similar indoor dog potties). As far as the smell and clean-up goes: Yeah, using any type of indoor dog potty is going to smell... bad. You'll have to clean it very frequently to minimize odors (just as you would with a litter box system) probably with a bleach based spray. What I do is I throw away the piece of newspaper that he has peed on as soon as possible after it happens and I pick up the potty with toilet paper and flush it down the toilet. This might sound a bit gross, but this tip has really worked for Hobbes with the Ugodog: soak a tissue in a bit of your dog's urine and slip it under the grating so that your dog recognizes his/her scent when looking for a place to go to the bathroom. Good luck to you! Hope the potty training goes well, whichever method you end up choosing!! :aimeeyork |
WizDog Hi there, I have been using the WizDog (similar to UGODOG). It has worked well for us. There are still occasional misses (why, I do not know) but in general, Rocky runs to the WizDog when he needs to go (he saves up until we are home to get a treat too). Rocky is just over 5 months old and has been using the WizDog since he was a little over three months old. It can get stinky though and is not the easiest to clean but in general, very good and much cheaper than pee pads. |
Ugo dog I have been using mine since I brought Molly home and she is 2 weeks shy of being a yr old. We have very little misses and gets a small piece of a cookie every time she goes. I only change the paper twice a week and I'm home all day to pick up the poop. You could try putting a bit of baking soda on the paper when you lay it down.. I find it very easy to keep clean and heck of a lot cheaper than puppy pads... Hope that helped and good luck! Diana |
Does anyone know if this is sold in stores? I tried searching, but I only see it online. Thanks :) |

do you all find it easier for your dog to be inside trained? i just adopted charlie, and he's been making poop accidents in the house. i'm wondering if it would be good to borrow the dog pan my stepmom has. |

I had one, but, I gave it away to my sister-in-law...it would be fine for a puppy I think that you're training, but, for mine, they were used to the pee pad, and the one would always go over to it and pee on the side instead of on top, which then the pee would go all down and around the sides of it, and I would have a puddle of pee everywhere.. |

I used both pee pads and newspaper..they didn't care which it was, as it was in the bottom, so they couldn't see it.. |
