The Porch Potty™ is the first automated grass litter box for dogs. It's designed to make it easy for anyone with a dog to have a close and convenient place for their dog to potty. Dog owners love the convenient way for their dogs to have relief without leaving the comfort (and often times safety) of home.
I got the large porch potty, $$$ its fine in the winter but not so much in the summer. I was cleaning it everyday running water over everytime my dog would pee and picked up poo asap plue sanitize and deodorizing after everytime. Flys are attracted to the smell regardless how much you clean. They would lay there eggs and I would find maggots underneath in the draining bin. Killing the flys without having harsh chemicals around my dog is another. I have bleach bath the fake grass and the flys still do the same thing. If I would have know this I would have never bought it. I have replaced the fake grass and it still happens.
We're sorry to hear about the issues you're experiencing with the Porch Potty during the summer months. While it's designed to be convenient, the heat can unfortunately attract flies, leading to the problems you've described. We recommend continuing to clean the Porch Potty regularly, but also suggest trying a bleach-diluted solution for a deeper clean, especially in the tray and catch basin. This can help kill any eggs or larvae that may be present. It's also important to rinse thoroughly afterward to keep your dog safe. We understand your concerns about using harsh chemicals around your dog and suggest natural fly repellents, such as essential oils like lavender or eucalyptus, which may help deter flies without compromising your pet’s safety
But what about for an adult dog? He's a good boy and goes outside, but doesn't seem to understand that the porch potty is an area meant for going to the bathroom. My family and I have been trying to wait until he can't hold it anymore, but we don't want to do that so much cause it would be bad for his kidneys
Y’all piss me off so bad. There are other reasons for a person to get an indoor potty . And it’s NOT just because someone doesn’t want to be responsible or take their dogs out on walks. I just adopted a dog and she potty’s so well but she’s so easily distracted hand she ONLY feels comfortable when pottying on pee pads on my balcony. That’s the only time she will poop, not in the house, not out on walks , only when she’s comfortable on my balcony. I would definitely get this and STILL walk my baby 4 times a day like I have been doing.
