Can older dogs be trained to use the Pet Potty or is it primarily used just for puppies?

Although the training process varies from dog to dog, training adult dogs can be quite easy, since they have learned to control their bladder and yearn to please their masters. It is simply a behavior modification process requiring consistency, time, patience and proper use of a reward system. It should be noted that training an adult dog to “go” in an indoor potty area may take additional time and perseverance.

"I can’t believe how much easier potty training has been with it and I don’t know what we would have done without it." Elizabeth (Chicago, IL)

Most dogs are house-trained from an early age. And are able to go outside when they need to relieve themselves. Some dogs are even trained by their owners to ring a bell when a call of nature occurs.

However, if you live in an apartment or a home where you don't have access to a garden or yard, what's a dog to do when he needs to go and he just can't wait? And what about dogs whose owners work long hours, leaving their pups home alone? You can't reasonably expect your dog to wait more than a few hours before he has a chance to relieve himself.

An indoor dog potty can be a good solution where dogs have to be left alone for more than a few hours on a regular basis, or in an emergency. Or where a dog needs more frequent access to a toileting area.
