Can an older dog be trained to use the Rascal Dog Litter Box?
Yes, but it will be more difficult than a young puppy. I was able to train my dog Snoopy who was 13 years old. Be patient, offer plenty of treats and rewards and most importantly be consistent with the training. Remember that your older dog was probably never taught to eliminate in the home at any time, unless it was on newspapers or puppy pads. Please keep your dog in a crate during the training period. If your dog is use to eliminating on piddle pads or newspaper the transition to the box is usually very smooth. Please review the training tips on the training tips tab.

Remember, that your older dog was probably taught not to defecate or urinate at anytime in the house. Please keep your dog in a crate while training. If your dog is currently using pee pee pads or dog litter, then the transition is usually very easy. Please review my training tips on the Training Tips Tab.
