I have a female that wants to use her dog house for a litter box.{It is a off the ground kennel} any suggestions.

I thought I would tie her out to a dog house. Would that help!

what are you using for bedding?

The ONLY thing that will make her stop is to make her box smaller. Make her box just big enough to curl up in. Been through this many times. Hope this helps.
Good luck,

I agree You need to put something in her box to take up room. I use a chunk of firewood before it is split to fill up the box. Then when she get's a little older she should stop

Try changing her bedding to straw. My dogs will pee in shavings too for some reason. The bitches are the worst. Straw is warmer anyway ;-)

I just close off the door, put up a wind block down one side of your pen ,it only takes a few days ,she will stop.............
