Doggie Septic Tank

Has anyone used any of the poop tanks you bury in the ground, fill with water and add the digestive powder to? I'm thinkin about purchasing one because Tobi will only go in the back yard and thats where we entertain around the pool. I have been scooping but if this type of product works well i will probably install it. Your thoughts???????

Wow, never heard of such a thing. I'd be interested to see if anyone has this product and how it is working for them. Especially those in cold climates where the water would freeze. I've heard of cats using the inside toilet and even flushing afterwards. But a puppydog poopy pot in the yard....there's a concept.

I'm curious too, I've seen these, but never known anyone who has used one. I think you still have to scoop though and then drop it into the enzyme mixture.

I tried one before and I found that it did not work for me. I ended up digging it out and trashing it. Ooooh yes, that was a pleasant chore :eek:

I've seen it in Doctors Foster and Smith catalogs. Here's a link...

I have one. I tried using it for about 1 month. It requires water and this enzyme powder to break down the poop and I couldn't keep water in mine. My soil was too sandy. It doesn't work with out water and I had to fill it up everyday that whole month. So before you buy, dig a hole about 2 feet deep and fill with water for several days to see if your soil will hold water for more than a day. Also they don't work well in cold temperatures, they're made more for warmer climates.

Glad to read this thread as I had been considering one of these gizmos. Thanks for the info.
