    They can be litter trained.  I have yet to hear of a dog that uses the toilet.  Any particular reason for wanting to do this?

    I know someone who trained his cat to use the toilet but later retrained because the cat was making too much of a mess. Really I wouldn't want my dog using the toilet even if he could... imagine if he fell in! [:'(]

    Unless he could be trained to flush, put the seat down and use the TP to wipe up any *dribbles* I'd just as soon he keep going outside. [:)]

    I don't want to teach Shadow how to use the toilet because that's one more being taking up bathroom time.[:)]
     
    That, and once he figured out how to flush, he would probably do it all the time for fresh, running water.

    I've heard of quite a few dogs knowing how to use the toilet - and flush! My parents were "collie people" and one of their friends' dogs had learned to use it and flush afterwards . . . but it was a really, really smart dog. [;)]

    I have an extra bathroom and could build a wood stand around it so she would have more room

    No, I don't - sorry! This was long before I was born.

    You could always call around to different trainers, maybe somebody will have an idea?
