It’s been over a month using Bark Potty and my experiences have drastically improved! All the training was definitely worth it as our dog, Misu finally learned to use it without supervision! It has especially helped after Misu’s spay and tooth extraction procedures.
Only issue we ran into was with a fresh Bark Potty, Misu still has the tendency to eat and pull at the bark until it starts smelling. The smell begins to creep in under two weeks, but likely because we use it more often.
Overall, much better experience after weeks of training! Highly recommend trying and sticking through the training.
