Diy Porch Potty

A DIY porch potty is a simple, inexpensive way to provide a designated bathroom area for your dog on your porch or patio. It can be made from a variety of materials, but a common design uses a wooden frame, a shower pan liner, and artificial turf.

To build a DIY porch potty, you will need the following materials:

• Wood for the frame
• Shower pan liner
• Artificial turf
• Staples
• Drainage pipe
• Gravel (optional)

Instructions:

1. Cut the wood to size for the frame of the porch potty. The frame should be slightly larger than the shower pan liner.
2. Assemble the frame using wood screws or nails.
3. Cut the shower pan liner to size and staple it to the inside of the frame.
4. Cut a hole in the bottom of the frame for the drainage pipe. Insert the drainage pipe and seal it with silicone caulk.
5. Fill the bottom of the porch potty with gravel (optional).
6. Place the artificial turf on top of the gravel or directly on the shower pan liner.

Once your DIY porch potty is complete, you can place it on your porch or patio in a convenient location for your dog. Be sure to clean the porch potty regularly and replace the artificial turf as needed.

Here are some additional tips for building and using a DIY porch potty:

• Choose a durable wood for the frame, such as cedar or redwood.
• Use a high-quality shower pan liner to prevent leaks.
• Add a layer of expanded metal under the artificial turf to support it and improve drainage.
• If you are using gravel, make sure it is small enough that your dog will not choke on it.
• Clean the porch potty regularly with soap and water.
• Replace the artificial turf if it becomes damaged or soiled.
