Setting Up, Using and Disposing the POG
Are the fresh turf pet relief grass toilets suitable for outdoor use?
Absolutely! The doggy toilets are specifically designed for outdoor use, providing a comfortable and convenient space for your pets to relieve themselves in the comfort of your home's balcony or backyard. Placing the POG outdoors allows for better ventilation and fresh air circulation around the grass.
To ensure the best performance and longevity of the POG in outdoor settings, here are a few important considerations:
- Dry spot during rainfall: While the POG is designed to withstand outdoor conditions, it's essential to find a dry spot for the POG when it rains. This helps prevent the grass box from becoming soggy and potentially getting damaged. Placing it under cover or in a sheltered area during rainfall is recommended.
- Shaded outdoor space: For optimal performance, it's advisable to primarily position the POG in a shaded outdoor area. This provides your pet with a comfortable space to use the grass toilet on hot days without the risk of their paws getting burned. Additionally, keeping the grass in the shade helps extend its lifespan, ensuring it remains fresh and vibrant for longer.
By placing the fresh turf pet relief grass toilet in a suitable outdoor location, you can provide your pets with a convenient and safe space to take care of their business. Whether it's on your home's balcony or in the backyard, the POG is designed to meet the needs of your furry friends while ensuring their comfort and well-being.
Can I use the POG, genuine sod dog potties, indoors?
While using our grass dog potties indoors is not our primary recommendation, it is possible. If you choose to place the POG indoors, please ensure the following precautions are taken:
- Before setting up the POG, leave it outside in the sun, open, for a few hours. This will allow any bugs, worms, caterpillars, or other organisms that may be living in it to exit.
- Thoroughly check the grass for any living organisms before placing it inside your home. This step ensures a clean and pest-free environment.
- To provide added leak protection, place the grass box lid under the base of the POG.
- Position the grass toilet near a window or door to allow for fresh air circulation. This helps to prevent strong odors and keeps the grass properly aired out.
- As an optional step, you can place the grass on the balcony every night to allow for proper airing and drying. Bring it back inside in the morning for use throughout the day.
These fresh turf pet relief areas offer a convenient and natural solution, especially for those living in apartments or dealing with extreme weather conditions. While indoor use is possible, we recommend considering these guidelines to ensure the best experience for both you and your furry friend.
How do I setup the POG doggy grass toilet for my pup in my home?
Setting up the POG doggy grass toilet for your dog in your home requires a few simple steps. Whether you're planning an indoor or outdoor setup, we've got you covered.
For indoor setup:
- Before placing the POG indoors, it's important to ensure the grass is free from any living organisms. When you receive the grass, thoroughly check it for any bugs, worms, or other organisms. Remove them before allowing your dog on the grass.
- If the grass is being placed indoors, we recommend leaving it open outdoors in the sun for a few hours. This allows any remaining organisms to leave the grass naturally. Afterward, give it another check to ensure it's clean and ready for indoor use.
- Place the grass box lid under the base of the POG. This provides an additional layer of protection, preventing any urine from seeping through the soil and base of the box.
- Position the grass toilet by a window or door, allowing it to receive fresh air and proper ventilation. This helps to keep the grass well-aired and minimize any potential odors.
- As an optional step, consider taking the grass out to the balcony or outdoor area every night to allow it to air out and dry properly. Bring it back inside every morning for use throughout the day.
For outdoor setup:
- Similar to indoor setup, ensure the grass is free from any living organisms before placing it outdoors.
- Place the grass box lid under the base of the POG. This provides an additional layer of protection, preventing any urine from seeping through the soil and base of the box.
- Choose a dry spot for the POG, especially during rain showers, to prevent the box from becoming soggy and potentially damaged.
- Optimize your dog's comfort by primarily placing the POG in a shaded outdoor space. This provides protection from direct sunlight and prevents the grass from becoming too hot for your dog's paws. Additionally, keeping the grass in the shade can help prolong its lifespan.
By following these setup guidelines, you can create a comfortable and convenient grass toilet area for your dog. The POG doggy grass toilet offers a natural and hygienic solution for your furry friend's potty needs, whether indoors or outdoors. Enjoy the convenience and peace of mind that comes with providing your dog with a dedicated and clean spot to do their business.
Do dog grass pads smell?
It's natural for dog grass pads to develop a smell, particularly when used indoors. However, with proper care and maintenance, the odor can be minimized. Here are some key considerations:
Indoor Use: If you choose to keep the POG indoors, ensure it is placed in a well-ventilated area, such as near a window or a balcony door. This allows for better air circulation and helps reduce odors. Additionally, airing out the POG outside during the night can aid in drying and refreshing the grass, contributing to a fresher scent.
Outdoor Use: We recommend keeping the POG outdoors for several reasons, including better ventilation. When placed outside, the POG benefits from natural airflow, which helps keep it virtually odor-free if it is regularly cleaned. The heat from the sun also aids in drying, further promoting a fresher environment.
Regular Maintenance: To maintain hygiene and minimize odors, we recommend replacing the grass every two weeks. This practice prevents excessive build-up and ensures a clean and fresh surface for your pet.
Remember, while your dog's waste will naturally have an odor, proper cleaning and maintenance should effectively eliminate any unpleasant smells. If you encounter persistent odors, consider deep cleaning the grass pad or replacing it to restore a fresh and odor-free environment.
I have noticed mushrooms growing in my POG doggy grass toilet. Should I be concerned? How can I prevent mushroom growth and ensure my dog's safety?
While mushrooms in your doggy grass toilet are not necessarily dangerous, they thrive in environments rich in organic matter, such as dog waste. To maintain hygiene, promptly clean up after your dog poos on the grass. We recommend replacing the grass every two weeks to prevent mushroom growth and maintain a clean and healthy environment. Keeping the grass in a sunny area helps it stay dry, reducing the likelihood of mushrooms. However, it is important to note that any foreign substance, including mushrooms, can have unknown effects on dogs. As a precaution, prevent your dog from using the grass if mushrooms are present to prioritize your dog's well-being. Please remember that we are in no way liable for anything that may happen to your dog if they ingest the mushroom, and it is solely the pet owner's responsibility.
How frequently should I replace the grass in my POG doggy grass toilet?
To maintain a clean and healthy environment, we recommend replacing the grass every two weeks. This timeframe aligns with the natural decomposition of organic material and helps prevent the growth of mushrooms and other potentially harmful organisms.
Is the POG fully disposable?
Yes, the POG is a fully disposable product made of real grass placed in a recyclable cardboard box. When a new POG arrives, simply dispose of the old one.
How should I dispose of the used POG living lawn pet potty solutions?
Disposing of a used real grass dog potty solution, such as the POG, is a straightforward process. To properly dispose of the POG, follow these steps:
- Close the lid of the POG to contain any waste and ensure it is securely sealed.
- Take the POG to your designated garbage room or disposal area. If available, you can also dispose of it in a garbage dumpster.
- When disposing of the POG, please avoid throwing it down a garbage chute. Doing so may cause it to get stuck and lead to inconvenience for your building and maintenance staff.
By following these disposal guidelines, you can responsibly manage the used POG and maintain a clean and hassle-free waste disposal process.
How often should I water my real grass doggy toilet?
We recommend giving your real grass doggy toilet a light watering each morning. It's all about using your best judgement; the goal is to keep the grass fresh without overdoing it. Be mindful to avoid over watering, as a too-wet environment can lead to a soggy box, which isn't ideal for your furry friend. Keep it lightly moist, and you'll have a happy, healthy grassy spot for your dog to enjoy!
Training Your Dog on POG
How do I train my dog to use the POG doggy grass toilet?
Potty training your dog to use the POG is a gradual process. Start by placing the POG in a familiar area where your dog typically goes to relieve themselves. Encourage your dog to explore the POG by using positive reinforcement, such as treats and praise, whenever they approach or step onto the grass. If accidents occur outside the POG, clean them up without scolding your dog. With consistency, patience, and positive reinforcement, your dog will learn to associate the POG with their potty area.
What if my dog is hesitant to use the POG?
Some dogs may be initially hesitant to use the POG. If your dog shows resistance, try using a command or cue word consistently when they approach the POG, such as "Go potty" or "Go grass." Encourage them with treats and praise when they show interest or make any progress. You can also place a small amount of their urine or feces on the grass to attract them. Remember to avoid scolding or punishing your dog, as this may create negative associations with the POG.
How do I prevent my dog from using other areas of the house or yard for potty breaks?
During the training phase, it's important to limit your dog's access to other areas of the house or yard where they used to relieve themselves. Use baby gates or close doors to confine them to the designated area with the POG. Supervise your dog closely and redirect them to the POG if they show signs of needing to potty. Consistency is key, and over time, your dog will understand that the POG is their designated spot for potty breaks.
What if my dog has accidents outside of the POG?
Accidents may happen during the training process. If your dog has an accident outside the POG, clean it up without scolding or punishing them. Avoid using harsh cleaning products with strong odors, as they may interfere with your dog's ability to recognize the designated potty area. Instead, use pet-friendly cleaners and consider using an enzymatic cleaner to eliminate any lingering odors that could attract your dog to the same spot again.
How long does it take to fully train a dog to use the POG?
The time it takes to fully train a dog to use the POG can vary depending on the dog's age, temperament, and previous potty training experience. Some dogs may catch on quickly within a couple of weeks, while others may require more time and patience. Consistency in training, positive reinforcement, and closely monitoring your dog's potty needs will help expedite the training process. Remember, each dog is unique, so it's important to be patient and celebrate even small progress along the way.
Can I place the POG on top of a pee pad?
Yes, if you already use pee pads for your dog, you can place the POG on top of where the pee pad is normally placed. This can help your dog transition from using the pee pad to using the POG as their designated potty area.
Should I use potty training spray on the POG?
Using a potty training spray on the POG can be beneficial in guiding your dog to the desired potty spot. The scent from the spray will attract your dog to the POG and encourage them to relieve themselves there. Follow the instructions on the spray bottle for proper application.
What if my dog keeps peeing elsewhere?
If your dog tends to pee in other areas of your home, you can try placing a napkin soaked with their urine on the POG. The familiar smell will help them recognize the POG as their designated potty area. Over time, they will learn to associate the scent with the POG and choose to use it for their potty breaks.
How can I use treats to encourage my dog to use the POG?
Positive reinforcement is a powerful tool in training dogs. Whenever you observe your dog using the POG, reward them with treats and praise. This positive association will motivate them to continue using the POG. Be consistent with the treats and use them as a reward immediately after your dog successfully uses the POG.
Can I use a target with my dog's scent on the POG?
Some dogs respond well to targets. You can use a target, such as a small piece of cloth or paper, with your dog's scent on it and place it on the POG. This can attract your dog's attention and make the POG more enticing for them to use, especially for dogs who enjoy marking their territory.
Should I put my dog on a leash when using the POG?
If your dog is used to going on walks, you can try putting them on a leash and directing them to the POG instead. Use the same cues and commands you would use during a walk to guide them to the POG. This can help establish a routine and make the transition to using the POG smoother for your dog.
Is it important to keep the POG in a consistent location?
Yes, it is crucial to establish one location for the POG to avoid confusing your dog. Choose a spot that is easily accessible to your dog at all times, whether indoors or outdoors. Consistency in the location will help your dog recognize and remember where their designated potty area is.
What signs should I watch for when my dog needs to go potty?
Watch for signs such as sudden halting, circling, dedicated sniffing, or your dog dropping their bottom. These are indications that your dog needs to relieve themselves. When you notice these signs, distract your dog if necessary and quickly guide them to the POG to encourage proper potty habits.
What is a recommended potty training schedule for using the POG?
Establishing a consistent potty training schedule is key to successfully training your dog to use the POG. Follow this schedule to ensure regular and effective potty breaks:
- First thing in the morning: Take your dog to the POG immediately upon waking up.
- After breakfast: After your dog has finished their morning meal, bring them to the POG.
- After nap time: If your dog takes naps during the day, bring them to the POG once they wake up.
- After playtime: After an active play session, guide your dog to the POG for a potty break.
- After any snacks or drinking water (for puppies mainly): For puppies or if your dog has had a snack or water intake, take them to the POG to avoid accidents.
- After dinner: Following the evening meal, direct your dog to the POG for their final potty break of the day.
- Before going to bed for the night: Take your dog to the POG right before settling down for the night.
During each visit to the POG, place your dog on the grass and encourage them to relieve themselves using a cue word like "go." Be patient and allow them up to 5 minutes to do their business. If your dog doesn't go, repeat the process during the next scheduled visit.
To reinforce the routine, consider using a leash and walking your dog to the POG each time. This helps create a clear association and signals that it's time for them to use the designated potty area.
Remember, consistency is key, and positive reinforcement is important throughout the training process. Over time, your dog will become more accustomed to using the POG and develop a reliable potty routine.
