We have this 80 pound black lab, Buddy, who is not quite a year old. He is really a tiny lap dog trapped in a big dog's body and is just a lovey big baby. And apparently camera flashes excite him because everytime I snapped a picture of him he would run madly and excitedly around the house!
So anyway, yesterday I am in the little bathroom where the cat litter box is. Buddy comes walking through, lifts his leg, pees in the cat litter box and walks on! I had never seen such a thing, so I was amazed and cracking up laughing all at the same time. But then a thought hit me...maybe this was a fluke thing and he is just randomly "marking" things around the house which would be a very, very, very smelly and bad thing. So I followed him around and then looked around the house for evidence. None was found. He has done it (used the litter box)several times since then.
I have heard of dogs sneaking a cat poop snack from the litter box, which he has never done, but peeing in it? How neat is that?!?!?!?!
Good Boy Buddy! :0) Keep up the good work!
Be sure to praise him right after he uses the box so he knows.
ReplyDeleteLets hope the cats don't stop using the box because it smells like dog.
You know, I never though of the possibility that the cats might stop using it. So far it has been business as usual - I hope it stays that way! :)
