Will my dog be unable to get in and eat poop?

I don't think your dog should be able to get in this one. We don't have a dog in the house but do outside. I love this dome for my cat though. It is fantastic. I would recommend it to anyone.

I would suppose it would depend on how aggressive your dog is in getting access to the box. Your dog wouldn't be able to access it through the opening as the "stairs" go up and around; however, he/she could stick his nose in and try to dislodge the top of the box. The bottom of the box has a narrow edge that fits into a channel in the top. One of my male cats is quite large and hasn't been able to dislodge it going in and out of the box. My dog would stick her head in the other box litter box we had before the Booda Dome, but she seems to leave both Booda Domes along. I can't promise your dog won't find a way in, but the Booda Dome definitely makes it more difficult. Hope this helps!

Sadly no, but the "staircase" is the best deterrent I've found in a litter box w/o making it too much of a challenge for the cats to care to overcome. I agree with folks who've said the answer is in the placement of the box. Paired with a scooper w/ rounded edges, this is the best box imaginable. We call ours the "spa"!

Hmmmm, depends on how hungry he is and how big he/she is. If he will fit in the hole there would be nothing stopping him/her. My cat weighs about 13 lbs. and is rather tall, so if he fits and he's determined, absolutely he could.

No, unless you have a dog the size of a cat or smaller. Hopefully the dog isn't smart enough or strong enough to pry off the lid...The cat will love it and so will you!

I don't think so, unless he is really small and can fit. Or if he's big enough to knock the lid off.

My boston terrier can't or hasn't. This was a huge issue at my house and hasn't happen since I've had the Booda. The dog would literally have to knock the top off to get to the poop. My 18 pounder can't manage this.

If you have a normal dog, you should have no problem. If you have a small poo eating dog, then it will easily fit inside. If you have a very large dog with a cat poo addiction, he will find a way, but it STILL is the best litter box on the planet!!!

As far as I know it's not a preventative. If you dog is like mine, likes digging and rooting around and eating things in the dirt that he's not supposed (you all know what I'm talking about) then keep a box on hand. If you have a suspicion that your dog has worms (diarrhea, lethargic, won't eat) give him the treatment at the first sign right away. Don't wait. If it's worms he should improve the very next day. If he doesn't call the vet.

Unfortunately, no. My dog has the same problem. It is pretty easy to clean though.

Depends how big. I don't think that it can get inside because there's a turn that he has to put his paws insidePs. BTW I smeared a little peanut butter inside

Put things in the corners. I had a water bottle that came out on one corner and a bowl for his food on the other. He will still poop a little on the top floor since they basically are always pooping! ;) but they do prefer corners.

You could probably try putting one of those stick-like treats in it but it would be hard to clean if any of the treat actually got inside. Perhaps smear it with chicken or beef grease.

Try looking up the Kyjen website for a video or direct help. I'd suggest the spiral bowl to make it easier for you to add the food (or clean up!) and still challenge your pup.

From my experience after eating the medicine the dog will go to the activities in a normal fashion. The next day or two you might see that your dog will be happier and more active. If you care to inspect the turds you might see worms maybe. The thing is your dog might need a follow up dose. Its cost about 65 where i live for the lab work alone just to check the stool sample so just be aware

Feed you doggy pineapple it doesn't mentally make them stop but it makes their poopy taste bitter to them. I have a friend who broke his dogs that way.....true story. Match stick in the butt makes them poop and feeding them pineapple will make them not wanna eat their poop. Truuuue story

I don't know of any reason why not. But, a little water is all you need. Just stir it up, let it sit to soften the kibbles, feed. Contact your vet if your pet has trouble eating dry food because of mouth pain (if you haven't already).

I cannot answer the question without seeing the bag. I empty the bag into a plastic bin that has a seal on it and remove what I feed her for each meal. If you feed your dog the food consistently, it should not go bad!

I have a beagle who is very smart and was a rescue. One day I set the timer wrong and when I got home I found that he tried, I could tell to get the food out, but it is very difficult to make these sections move. I can't say that it's impossible, but if my beagle could not get to his food and he loves food, I would say it's a pretty sure shot that a corgi wouldn't.

Hello Kris, there is the sensor eye area in the front so if the sensor detects an object about 4 inches from it, the lid will open. Thus, if you dog is tall enough to get inside then your dog will get into the garbage. There is a power switch on the back of the lid cover that you can turn off so your dog doesn't activate the sensor.

My dog does not hesitate to eat this product. I just put it in his bowl with his can dog food. No problems.

I would give your little one just a small piece of it. I have an 8 lb shichon who will eat the whole then and then promptly get sick :(!

It made no difference in my one of my dogs who have that unfortunate habit.There are many things you can try such as small amounts of pineapple or natural canned pumpkin (no sugar or additives). You may also want to take your dog to the vet as coprophagia can be a symptom of something bigger. However, this product did help my dachshund with her IBS.

Definitely. I foster for a Rottweiler rescue organization and take care of all ages, from 6 weeks old to adults. All of them are on Taste of the Wild (TOW puppy food for the youngsters). To transition to any new food, always mix the foods to avoid digestive upsets: (Example) 25% new food for 2 days; then 50% new food for 2 days; then 75% new food for 2 days. This is just a guide; if signs of soft stools or diarrhea, stay with the low % of the new food for additional days.
