New Rascal Dog Litter Box!! small size!! called a little squirt. LOL. i just ordered the rascal dog box today. i got the original size, but i noticed that they've come out with a smaller, very cute version called the Little Squirt. i thought about getting that one, but Smokey is 9lbs... and the new box is only up to 10 lbs. he's got really long legs, and i thought it would be better for him to get the one that's a little larger. the smaller one costs less though! isn't that cool? :thumbup: |
I think we'd all like to know how it's working out. |

he's really good about doing his normal peeing on newspaper already, and he does keep the poop in his own room, and it's easy to just flush. i'm sure once he gets used to the Rascal Dog, it will be much easier. |
I just got a Rascal Litter box for Olive, too. I had to get the original because the "Lil Squirts" were sold out. I haven't gotten a chance to set it up yet; it arrived right before I left for work. Has anyone else tried it? Does it work well? I'm excited to try it! |
We tried it We tried the Rascal box but Cissy didn't like the "box". If someone wants to try it - shoot me a PM and I will let you have this one (be great if you will pay shipping). You will need to order the replacement grass. Cissy is dual/outdoor and inside trained. We use the grass with a pee pad in a tray holder for nightime potty and rainy days. She will only potty on grass. If you want it - give me a shout, it's just sitting in storage. |
Thanks so much for the offer. I wish I would have known before I ordered one for Olive! I already have the whole thing, with the extra grass and all. Hopefully she'll use it. Puppy pads aren't working out so well... |

Hi there...so..how's the box going? |
I got a Racal box recently and left it out for Olive while I went to work. When I came home, she had pooped in it with no prior training or coaxing on my part! I was so excited. She doesn't pee in it, for whatever reason, but I leave a pee pad out for now until she's fully transitioned. I'll have more time to train her when Spring Break is over and my job slows down. |
I have had the Rascal for several months. Gabby poops on it, but pees on a pee pad. Tyler is afraid to step on the grass. l0l I am hoping that when spring gets here, and my lawn turns green, they will get the message for indoors and out. I have a large laundry room that I gate off for night time, and I keep the liter box in there. I also use the extra patch of 'grass' in my bathroom, with a pee pad which they use. |
These potty grasses are GREAT!!! I didn't get this one, because it has High Sides, and my boy TJ like to pee down the side :( |
How do you guys clean the grass? I'd like something that looks a little nicer than a potty pad, but I live in an apartment and don't have access to an outdoor hose or anything like that. Also, the Rascal box is the little white box with fake grass, right? Last I heard, they were really backed up on orders. |
The grass is machine washable... and the Rascal is a turquiose blue box with grass in it. I don't know if that helps you? |
You just place the grass pieces in a pillowcase and throw it in the wash. The Rascal is a light blue box. I ordered mine and got it very quickly. |
I only have laundry in the basement, and it's $3 per load! :eek: I would need to wash it pretty much every day, right? I'm not familiar with throwing things soaked with urine and/or feces into a laundry machine. I guess from what you guys are saying, it's okay? I assumed it would need to be soaped and hosed off outside. |

I put the grass into a zipped up pillow case, I use tide, white vinegar and bleach in the cycle. When done, I hang the grass overnight on a rack, it is dry and ready for the next morning. I pick the poop off with toliet paper and flush. If there is ever yucky soft poop, I use paper towel and Simple Solutions to clean that area off. |
Okay, cool! I would really like to get the grass. My apartment is set up so there's no good, out of the way place to put a pad. The grass is so much cuter. If you leave the grass down for a week, does it smell? Do you have to have backup grass for when you're washing / drying what your dog just used? |

You get 2 patches of grass, one to use and one to wash. You don't smell the urine, and the poop I pick up all day and flush. |
1 Attachment(s) The first one I ever got was the large DoggiePotty Indoor dog bathroom. Doggie potty a training solution. I like this system and the grass is A+ top grade. The problem is, TJ is a "side" peer. When I used the dog liter boxes (with pee pads inside) he would lift his leg and pee on the side. I was constantly cleaning pee puddles. So I thought the grass would solve this. The doggiepotty is top of the line...but...it is "raised" so once again, I had TJ peeing on the edge, and me cleaning pee all the time. So I decided to make my own set up. I got a roll of linoleum from home depot (approx. $20), I got the plastic "boot" trays from home depot (approx. $5 each) and I cut up my doggiepotty grass (since it was the large size) I cut it into 3 equal pieces, and it all fits perfect! I have a 2 tray setup up stairs, and 1 tray downstairs. I still have to line the bottoms with pee pads to catch any of TJs edge peeing, and up the wall for TJ's "high" wall pee...but this actally works the best for him...and me :D |

Well you aren't you smart! I never would have thought of doing that... |
I know this is an old three but I was wondering if anyone who was using their rascal box was still using it. I just got one brand new on craigslist to replace one I made which was working out ok. Roxy just needed something bigger to circle in. |
