There are really no words to describe just how much I adore my five-year-old terrier mix, Atticus. Having been his proud (adoptive) papa since June of 2008, I am, admittedly, obsessed with my dog (you would be too if you met him). The sixteen-pound black and white pooch is — as most pet owners will attest — essentially my child, and keeping his best interests in mind is always a top priority.
That being said, living on the sixteenth floor of an eighteen-floor apartment building with only two elevators can make the bathroom walk a royal pain in the tail. Considering that I'm lucky enough to have a terrace, it dawned on me recently that bringing home a dog potty might save me both time and energy.
I decided to test several high-end Wee Wee Pads to find the perfect solution.
Wizdog is a 21" X 28" plastic pan with a fitted grate on which liquid waste dispenses through to a newspaper or an absorbent pad. Atticus didn't take to the $40 solution, but that's probably more due to the fact that he's used to relieving himself on grass or the curb. The product seems best fit for puppies and dogs already experienced with pads or newspaper. And while it
is rather small, Wizdog suggests combining two of the products together to cover more surface — but that will also double your costs.
UGODOG: At 24" x 19", the $50 plastic pan and fitted grate is similar to the Wizdog. But with two smaller grids, it is easier to clean, and, we should add, its neutral color (compared to Wizdog's bright blue) makes it more aesthetically pleasing. Urine passes through the grates and onto newspaper or a Wee Wee Pad, but unlike the Wizdog, it doesn't have to be absorbent. You can simply have liquids pass through to the pan and empty it out every night. Again, Atticus didn't take to it, but we know why.
Pet Loo: At about 33" x 33", the Pet Loo is designed with synthetic grass that filters urine into a reservoir on the base's side, which can simply be removed and dumped into the toilet. This makes the Pet Loo a bit more environmentally friendly that the previous two solutions as you don't need to waste newspaper or pads to collect pee. The grass and the base beneath can be cleaned with warm water, leaving the contraption entirely odorless. Considering that my dog prefers doing his business on grass, both Atticus and I were quite pleased with the Pet Loo.
Porch Potty, however, was the clear winner. At 28" x 52", it is, indeed, the largest model we tested, but that may have also been what made it most effective. Unlike the Pet Loo, Porch Potty has
two cleaning options. The Standard $249 model, which we tested, uses a provided "catch basin" (read: bowl) placed beneath a hole in the center of its base that collects all liquid waste. At $30 more, the Premium model features a built-in sprinkler system that requires a connection to a garden hose. Two sprinklers spray the grass clean, while a drainage hose — which hopefully you've snaked over to your nearest rain gutter or patio drain — dispenses the soiled water. Atticus found the Porch Potty roomy and spacious, and the synthetic grass has, indeed, remained odorless and easy to clean with a few sprays of a water bottle every day.
If you have enough space and prefer to use a system featuring synthetic grass, we'd recommend the Porch Potty (which also offers training sod instead of grass). That being said, the Pet Loo is equally expensive, but if you don't need as much space as the Porch Potty offers, it is definitely a worthy buy. And between Wizdog and UGODOG — both of which feature grates instead of grass — we'd recommend springing the extra $10 for the latter, which looks more better and doesn't require the use of newspapers or wee-wee pads.

NEW YORK—Mark Stern, founder of United Pet Group (UPG), has left retirement to sanction the Pet Loo. The Pet Loo, a unique dog toilet from Australia, is a “back yard in a box” that fits inside homes, so animals can relieve themselves when owners can’t be there.
Stern, who has been retired for three years, will join Pet Loo inventor Tobi Skovron, CEO of Pup-Pee Solutions.
Until 2005, Stern headed UPG, which established brands like Nature’s Miracle, Dingo, 8 in 1, Marineland and Perfecto. Stern will now be working to help bring the Pet Loo to America.

Your Backyard in a Box …
The Pet Loo is a great alternative to middle of the night "piddles" and other house breaking drama that can come with the arrival of a new fur baby!
Hygienic, convenient, simple, and environmentally-friendly, this new and innovative lawn toilet is made of synthetic grass, which offers a familiar surface for your pet(s). This synthetic material also ensures that your Pet Loo will be able to solve your dog's potty problems time and time again.
The Pet Loo's unique draining system places the urine in an easy-to-clean compartment, which is effective for dogs of all sizes — finally solving the toilet training headaches most pet owners deal with every day. It is easy to use and great for apartments, condos, balconies, patios, even RVs.
The Haute or Not? testers have not yet had the opportunity to use The Pet Loo, but we have seen and felt the synthetic grass, and are sure that most dogs, young or old, would be quite comfortable using it. So rest easy and enjoy having a pet in your life, while The Pet Loo takes care of the toilet problems for you.

To all concerned at The Pet Loo Company,
I just wanted to send you a big thank-you for your wonderful product, The Pet loo.
I first saw your product on The Inventors on the ABC, but at that time had no need for one. But 2 weeks ago I moved into an apartment with my 12 year old Maltese who is the most stubborn and routine only dog and I never dreamed that he would take to The Pet Loo so easily.
It has been such a relief as I really didn't fancy taking him up and down in the lift to do his business every 3-4 hours during the day and evening.
He happily uses it without my suggestion, just as he did with the back yard grass at my previous home.
Purchasing The Pet loo has been one of my best ever purchases and I am very grateful to you for inventing this product.
Who said you can't teach an old dog new tricks.
With many thanks,
Marjorie T

PUP-PEE SOLUTIONS Launches NO RANGE
A 100% Natural Solution for Smells and Stains
Australian pet product company, Pup-Pee Solutions has launched No Range, a line of enzyme products designed to naturally treat pet smells and stains.
The enzymes in No Range dissolve organic matter from pet accidents, blood, food and beverages quickly and easily. Their natural, biodegradable formula does not harm or discolor carpets or upholstery or irritate sensitive skin, eyes or noses. “With the No Range in your home you literally have trillions of natural enzymes working for you to break down undesirable organic material safely and effectively; resulting in a healthier pet and home,” says Tobi Skovron, founder of Pup Pee Solutions.
The No Range consists of three core products; Wee Care, Liquid-ate and Whiff-off.
Wee Care: Developed to create a healthy habitat for your pet and your family; Wee Care eliminates germs from a pet’s waste and toileting area. This product was developed to be used with The Pet Loo, “A back yard in a box” that allows an animal to relieve itself when its owner can’t be there.
Liquid-Ate: Eliminates stains and odors permanently, such as pet stains and accidents, blood stains, food & beverage spillage, feces, urine and vomit. Unlike competing products that mask odors temporarily, Liquid-ate safely combats the root of the problem making the home a cleaner and healthier place to be.
Whiff-Off: A specifically formulated mixture of citrus scents and enzymes that effectively eliminates airborne odors from any pet source, permanently.
Features of No Range:
· Safe for your pet & the whole family
· 100% natural & biodegradable
· Permanently removes ALL organic odors & stains
· Hypo-allergenic
· Discourages pets from re-soiling in the same area
How do enzymes work?
Enzymes are complex protein molecules that promote the rapid progress of nearly every chemical reaction essential to life. In nature, enzymes decompose organic material by breaking it down to its original components, such as carbon dioxide and water – and this is exactly what they do in the No Range.
The No Range are revolutionary products that are non-toxic, non-irritating, 100% biodegradable and harmless to your pet, family & environment.
About Pup-Pee Solutions:
Pup-Pee Solutions’ philosophy is that animal companionship should be accessible for all and that convenient, user-friendly products eliminate barriers to pet ownership. The company was founded by husband-and-wife team and dog lovers, Tobi and Simone Skovron. Simone is a former veterinary nurse and social worker.The company launched the award-winning Pet Loo in Australia in July 2006. The Pet Loo and The Pet Loo MINI-Wee have been sold in excess of 73 regions of the world. Pup-Pee Solutions has broadened its range to include a host of pet-related products including the Kitty Kat.

Pet Pro Profile:
Simone Skovron, The Pet Loo
How many times have you taken the dog out for bathroom break–and worried they wouldn't make it out in time? Necessity was the mother of invention when it came to The Pet Loo, first developed in Australia by Simone Skovron who invented the handy "backyard in a box." Today Simone and her husband Tobi Skovron are the co-founders of Pup-Pee Solutions, a company that's expanded globally and product-wise as well, now offering enzyme cleaners. We caught up with Simone to learn more about the couple's fast-growing business.
Can you tell us about your background, especially your experience with pets?
I am a qualified social worker with a special interest in, and appreciation for, Animal Assisted Therapy. I strongly believe in the benefits of animal companionship both on a physical and emotional level. While I’ve spent the better part of the last few years working as a social worker in an aged care facility, over the years I’ve accumulated experience working with domestic animals both in the capacity as a vet nurse, animal assisted therapist (I studied this) and in pet retail.
How did you come to invent The Pet Loo?
The Pet Loo was invented out of pure need. As an apartment dwellers with dogs, I became frustrated with having to toilet my dogs at inconvenient times, worry they wouldn’t be able to hold on if I was late getting home, and pray they make it down the flights of stairs in time. I found myself saying that I needed “a backyard in a box” for my balcony and my husband decided we should go ahead and create it.
What tips do you have for pet parents who want to train their dog to use the Pet Loo?
The beauty of the Pet Loo is that is replicates the outdoors so if a dog is grass trained, they actually will require very little or no training. If training a puppy, it’s matter of applying simple toilet training principles and if a dog is needed some encouragement there are way to do so which is usually specific to the dog’s situation. Detailed information on training pets to use the Pet Loo can be found on our website www.thepetloo.com
Pup-Pee Soutions has expanded its product offerings to include enzyme products for pet stains and smells. Can you tell us about these and how they work? What makes them different from traditional pet stain removers?
Although The Pet Loo is our flagship product, more recently we have responded to consumer need to develop a chemical free, biodegradable range of cleaning products called the “NO Range.” The funky packaging on all the bottles explain their individual purpose, ranging from odor removers, to stain removers and cleaning products specifically for pet areas. Our products don’t mask the problems, they get to the root of the problem and that’s why they are proving to be so effective.
What else would you like the readers of DogTipper.com to know about your work?
As a company, Pup-Pee Solutions is motivated by the want to break down the barriers to pet ownership. More often than not, people will opt out of owning a pet or surrender a pet as a result of a toileting issue. As a Pet Waste Management company, we seek to solve these problems so that more people can enjoy the privilege that comes with owning a pet!

HI Nicole,
I purchased a pet loo for one of my customers…I wasn't sure if the product was going to work, so I bought it myself as a "gift" to her.
Now I feel comfortable selling it to my customers.
She got it Saturday, and here is some of her feedback:
………………………………………………………………………………………………………………
Hi Sofie.
Sookie is loving The Pet Loo, What is funny is that I haven't had to do any real training with her on it.
For example:
This am while I was getting ready for work, I didn't take her out on the leash, I just opened up the patio door. She went 1 & 2.
After she gets used to it, I will get her a doggie door.
I am really excited so now when I walk her, I can focus on walking rather then "go potty" mode. Also, I think this will do wonders for her tummy and apartment lifestyle. It looks like they are coming out with another design that has a larger disposal bin. I did purchase a replacement grass and the cleaner through the website. Thanks again!
You’re the best doggie trainer EVER!

When you gotta go….you gotta go – and your dog doesn’t know how much you paid for that Persian rug. If your pet is doing its outside business inside, Pup Pee Solutions has the answer with The Pet Loo. This “backyard in a box” will forever eliminate those early morning bathroom runs, inclement weather walks, and the apprehension over leaving your pet alone for too long.
The Pet Loo features durable synthetic grass atop a platform and a hygienic urine drainage system designed for easy maintenance. No longer will your canine need to rely on you for its dirty deeds, which means peace of mind and a cleaner house.
Tobi Skovron and his wife Simone developed The Pet Loo after purchasing a dog in 2003. Living in an apartment, Tobi & Simone immediately became aware of the difficulties of having a pet and no yard, thus inspiring the creation of the prototype Pet Loo. After three years of developing and fine tuning, the invention hit the market in 2006.
In just three years the product has exploded, enjoying success in 73 countries and earning a devoted following from those who otherwise could not own a dog. “Pets and people’s lifestyles are often impractical. The Pet Loo is a solution rather than just a product,” Tobi remarks. “Our success is genuine and the retailers who have got on board have made a lot of money.” Tobi implores all retailers to “have a go and take a chance,” citing that too much stagnancy can be very detrimental in a slow market.
While several imitators have cropped up, none come close to Pup Pee Solutions. They aggressively preserve their patent protection and intellectual property, ensuring the consumer gets only the best quality product at a reasonable cost.
Whether you’re a busy traveling professional, or just own a dog that’s indiscriminate over its toilet location, there’s no better alternative.
