This is a life saver for me and Quinnie, my dachshund/min pin rescue. Living in NYC there are days when it's just too cold, or too rainy to go outside. Quinnie, like a true dachshund, detests the rain and will stubbornly refuse to go out. What she will do, happily, is trot onto the terrace and pee on her Doggie Lawn.Once done, she trots back and goes back to sleep. It's an absolute lifesaver.
