If you live with both dogs and cats, you’ve probably dealt with a gross (but common) problem: your dog treating the litter box like a snack bar. 🤢
Not only is this behavior unpleasant, but it can also lead to health issues for both your pets. Fortunately, there’s a simple solution: a Dog Proof Litter Box.

In this guide, we’ll explain why dogs are so drawn to litter boxes, how to stop it for good, and why our Dog Proof Litter Box might be the perfect fix for your home.

Why Do Dogs Love Litter Boxes?

Dogs are naturally curious creatures, and unfortunately, cat litter boxes seem to check all their favorite boxes:
🐶 Smells interesting (to them, anyway)
🐶 High-protein "snacks" (gross but true)
🐶 A secret spot they're "not supposed" to explore

Beyond the ick factor, eating cat waste can expose dogs to harmful bacteria and parasites, so stopping this habit is essential.

🔹 Smaller or angled entrances that dogs can’t squeeze into
🔹 Long hallways that block direct access
🔹 L-shaped designs to reduce tracking and odor
🔹 Easy-open tops or skylights for simple cleaning
🔹 Sturdy, spacious interiors that are comfy for cats
