How do you train puppies to leave the litter box alone? I tried a litter
box last year. The second I put that box in the puppy pen, the puppies
immediately set out to empty the litter out of the box. They would not quit
until it was empty, no matter what I did. Couldn't distract them, couldn't
tell them no. The second I started to walk away, they started digging and
flailing the litter all over. After one week I gave up. There was never
any litter in the box! Only all over the puppy pen.
If anyone wants the litter box, they are welcome to it.
