. net... where doe's the dog go to the bathroom on the boat? I had mine on board acually my wife's dog and my daughter put him in the cabin and thank god she put down a towel cause he went right in the middle of the floor and tracked it all over the towel. If it's your wife's dog, how come SHE didn't clean up after the silly creature??? |

The pet stores sell those "wee wee" pads for training puppies. They are pretty large. Our dogs would use the "wee-wee" pads. Scotch, being a decent sized male that pee'd without squatting, would sometimes miss the pad. However he seldom ended up in that situation - both of our dogs could go several hours between "bio breaks". There were times we would force him outside because he would go so long without "asking". When the weather was bad he would look out the door and retreat as if to say, "I can hold it until it stops raining." We would order him out sometimes... "Look! You've been in the house for 10 hours! That can't be healthy! Now go OUTSIDE and pee on something!" We dinghyed the dogs to shore four or five times a day when we were out on the hook or something. Sounds like a lot, but over a 24 hour period, it isn't that bad. First thing in the morning, a couple of times during the day, and then a trip before bedtime. That doesn't work, of course, if you are too far from shore or conditions make going in the dinghy a little risky (under those conditions - there wouldn't likely be people swimming around the boat so I wouldn't be too concered about washing anything overboard). I don't have any heartache with picking up the solid waste and putting it down the head. I don't think dog crap has any detrimental effect on my lectra-san. Peggy will probably pipe up now and ruin my day - there's probably something in dog crap that will make my lectra san run backward or something.... with my luck. :-) If you are not willing to deal with this, don't take your dog boating. In fact, if you are not willing to deal with cleaning up after you dog, please don't take it anywhere. Parks, sidewalks, highway reststops, wherever - you should be cleaning up after you dog no matter where you take it. Why should it be any different on your boat. Heck! we have a baby on the way. Starting in January, cleaning up after a dog is going to seem like a pretty light chore. We are dogless right now. We lost our 14 year old keeshond on February, and our briard in June at 12 years. I have told my wife that I really don't miss cleaning up the yard every other day. That doesn't keep us from wanting another dog - but I think I will lobby for only having one. "Near this spot are deposited the remains of one who possessed Beauty without Vanity, Strength without Insolence, Courage without Ferocity, and all the Virtues of Man without his Vices. This praise, which would be unmeaning Flattery, if inscribed over human ashes, is but just a Tribute to the Memory of BOTSWAIN, a dog." – John Cam Hobhouse "Wildest Dream" wrote in message . net... where doe's the dog go to the bathroom on the boat?

I prut him in the water and washed him up and threw out the towel. Tried him one more time and he crapped on the swim platform, he's getting closer to where I want it , off the boat. I hated to have to clean that up for all the world to see, than I had the smell in the garbage, I would have trown it in the water put too many people around and in my boat were swimming in the water. He now stays home. P.S. I have fish. |
