I have spent way too much time trying to track down this trend. See what I spend my time doing? Chasing down doggie urinals for your reading pleasure. Sounds kind of perverse too! Well anyways, it was featured on Cribcandy today as the "Chihuahua Urinal". Nobody seems to be the manufacturer behind this one, so it may be a spoof even though every article I found says otherwise. If this thing really does exist, how would you get your dog to use it? And what about the splash factor? If you check out the dog in the picture, it's a Chinese-Crested. What are they trying to say? Probably, no self-respecting Chihuahua would pose next to it.
