I read the same but when someone finally investigated it... The company was not charging people til it was shipped out and the first advertisments on TV were to test if people would buy them. I heard since last month they have not had problems. I personally think $70 plus $12 for shipping is a bit much for something that small. $40 is a good price as long as it works... But once we move I plan on purchasing the parts to make my own. A potty box with sides you can get at Walmart for $14 plus the grate underneath which is like $5-7 and the grass which is about $4-6 a square foot. (cheaper on eBay) That is under $30 for the EXACT same thing. The big seller on some of this things is the grass attracts them... But you can buy a bottle of that stuff, plus you can throw the grass in the washer and wash it. ( I have looked at the different grasses and one has a fabric backing the other is rubber with drainage holes, you want the second one). I'll post pictures when I make it :) |

Oh yeah! PLEASE let us know how it is, I've been toying with the idea on getting one for a while. My babies are outside trained BUT it snows sometimes and they HATE the heat! So this would be great (if it works) Thanks in Advance! Myhre5 |
Make your own "Potty Patch" cheap and easy Make your own!!! Back in 1992 when my new Chihuahua' pups were just 8 week & 10 weeks old, we set out for a week vacation and would be enroute for a 16 hour RV ride to Daytona Speedway, Since we didn't want to stop frequently, our resolution was to buy 2 large cookie sheets & two pieces of sod. That's right, real grass at your local co-op for $2.50! The oldest pup has paper trained when we got her and she was an immediate convert and the other pup just followed her lead. Because that worked so perfectly, in '95 when Peso has her first litter, I took two underbed storage boxes, made a cut-through from one to the other and then taped them together. As the pups started moving to the end of their crate to eliminate, their natural instinct to distance themselves led them to the sod. As that piece got 'dirty' I would take it outside and replace it with a fresh piece. Later when it came time to teach them to go outside, I took them to the 'used' sod and in no time they were 'outside trained'. In all the many litters since, I have never had had a 'paper trained' dog or house training problems on any pups ever and the buyers have always been tickled to get a pup that is outside ready! My babies are all oldsters now, 17, 15, 15 and 14 and my next pup will be a Yorkie. I look forward to reading your posts. Thank you and Good luck! |
Are there any other follow up with this? I actually was looking at the boxes with real sod/grass... but now Im thinking of making one like someone suggested. |

Potty Patch Could you guys tell me where you got a potty patch for $40 or even $70? I've been looking at one I saw in the Skymall magazine. It was $149. If I can get get one for much less, I'm very interested. The one in Skymall is 2 inches high, 30 inches wide, and 20 inches long. Sounds like a rip off compared to what some of you paid for your's.
