Solutions for the busy pet owner! Sounds better than “lazy pet owner”. Pooch Potty claims to be the orginal dog potty…in business since 1994. This product requires real sod that needs to be replaced once a week. It is not meant to replace exercising Astro regularly, but we’ll get to that shortly. The company gives a helpful tip: “Many customers who are too busy to clean their Pooch Potty boxes will ask their housekeepers or dogwalkers to do it for them.” If you have a dogwalker, why would you need to….? Ok, if you’re too busy to walk your dog AND too busy to clean up the indoor potty, maybe it’s time to consider getting a fish instead.

Here we go. Let your dog poop on the sod then exercise him/her on the treadmill. No need for you to leave the house! I’m wondering if I can fit my fat ass on this along with my dog. It might get more use than my Elliptical/Clothes Dryer sitting in my office.

If you haven’t seen “Envy” with Ben Stiller and Jack Black, please, I urge you to at least click on this link. It’s the “VaPOOrizer“! Poop Freeze is an aerosol freeze spray that, upon contact, forms a frosty film on dog or cat poop to harden the surface for easy pick-up. The company maintains it’s an environmentally friendly product. But it’s an aerosol. Hel-lo?

Anyway, here’s what you do. Set yourself up with the sod and the treadmill. When the dog goes, just freeze it so you don’t even have to pick it up. Get yourself one of those timed feeding bowls and you’re set for days!
