All of the Doggy Dooley Models are designed for installation in the ground. The Model 2000 and 3000 are designed for sandy absorbent soil and work like a miniature septic tank, utilizing enzyme and bacteria action to automatically reduce dog waste to a ground absorbing liquid. They have built-in overflow features on the side or close to the top of the unit that release waste liquid into the ground.
The Model 3500 and 3800 have a unique open-bottom system that has no need for a separate overflow device, for use in hard-packed less absorbent soils. It works utilizing enzyme and bacteria action to automatically reduce dog waste to a ground absorbing liquid. It releases waste liquid directly into the ground.
Which Doggie Dooley is right for your yard and dog(s)?
Do you have SANDY, VERY ABSORBENT SOIL?
Please see Model 2000 - For 1 large or 2 small dogs
Please see Model 3000 - For 2 large or 4 small dogs
Septic Tank Style System (waste is treated in the tank, then overflows).
Do you have HARD PACKED CLAY OR ROCKY SOIL?
Please see Model 3500 - For 1 large or 2 small dogs
Please see Model 3800 - For 2 large or 4 small dogs
Leach Bed Style System (waste is treated and breaks down in hole underneath).
To test for soil absorbancy, please do the following:
1. Dig a small, shallow test hole, in the area you have selected for installation.
2. Add water to see how quickly it is absorbed.
3. If water puddles and stands, then you have Hard-Packed Clay or Rocky Soil.
4. If water is readily absorbed, then you have sandy, very absorbant soil.
