Public “Pet Restrooms” confuse the pets

Four small toilets designed for pets have been installed in the Qinghe Garden community in Beijing’s Haidian District, but local dogs are yet to figure out how to use them.Community leader Wang Zhihua, the designer of the dog facilities, said she created the toilets for the convenience of residents and also for the sake of the local environment.

Local woman Zhao said she welcomed the installation of the toilets and no longer had to carry a bag for her dog’s faeces when she took it for a walk.

But local pet owners are having trouble getting their dogs to use the toilets. They said they would train their pets to use them.
