Wizdog Indoor Dog Potty

Anyone ever tried the WizDog Indoor Dog Potty?
Does it work? Do you use anything similar? Does it make sense to train a dog to "go" on it rather than outdoors as a start and then transition them to "go" outdoors?
I've never used that item, but I can try to answer your other questions. It is harder to train a dog to go inside and then train them to go outside than it is to train them to go outside right from the start.
One of the big reasons housebreaking works is because the dog develops a clear understanding of his living space and his potty place; dogs don't like them both to be the same place. But developing this boundary is harder when they are first trained to go inside and then need to learn to go outside.
That said, my mom trained her dog with newspapers in record time. Research the different methods for potty training and see what works best for you and your lifestyle. And always remember that dogs can be retrained if your first try didn't work.

Wizdog Indoor Dog Potty Review
Wizdog Indoor Dog Potty Review
A friend of mine recently brought home an adorable 10 month old puppy from a breeder. Puppies are great but most owners immediately realize that theirs a lot more to puppy parenting than just playtime. Right on cue, my friend calls me up and asks me what I did to housetrain my dogs. He asked if there was anything like an indoor dog potty that would help with the housetraining. Right then, I remembered all those years ago I had great success with an indoor dog potty called the Wizdog. I suggested it to him and walked him through how to best use it. It was then that I decided to write up this review for all my fellow dog owners.
What's a Wizdog?
It's an Indoor Dog Toilet made up of a solid plastic base with a removable grill that fits it. The concept is relatively simple. Newspaper is placed under the grill (I preferred to use puppy Pee Pads). Puppy pee goes through the grill and is collected in the newspaper or pad below. The grill prevents your puppy from stepping in his own urine as well as from getting at the pad to shred it into a million pieces. Poop stays on top of the grill. Cleanup is really easy. Poop can be discarded by lifting the grill and dumping the waste into your nearest trash bin. Lifting the grill provides access to the soiled pads which can be collected and thrown away.
Is it worth it?
With all of the pet gadgets out there, you're smart to be wary of throwing your money away. Besides the easy cleanup aspect of the indoor dog potty, there are several other advantages to think about.
1) When housetraining your puppy, it's important to have a consistent place for your dog to go. This sets up the idea that "This is the toilet. The rest of the house is not!" It's like a big indoor potty target!
2) Once your puppy is accustomed to using the Wizdog, you can move it around to wherever you want your dog to go potty.
3) This isn't just for puppies. Older dogs can use it too! It's very durable so it will last a long time. I know one couple that uses this for their elderly Schnauzer.
4) For those living in apartments or smaller places without doggie doors, this is a great alternative for those times when you can't take your dog out to pee (rain or snow anyone?).
I'm pleased to report that my friend is very happy with his Wizdog. His puppy makes it to the target 9 times out of 10 now (impressive for a puppy) with the 10th time missing the mark just slightly. My friend tells me that since they live in a condo on the 4th floor, this is the next best thing to being able to take his puppy outside for potty. As a matter of fact, I think he intends to use this exclusively as his puppy's permanent indoor dog potty.
Want more information? Head on over to the Wizdog website. There's a lot of good information there. I'm definitely a happy owner and am glad to be able to pass info like this on to other dog owners.
