@SheriGR @PriestessAvenara Well, I've tried many variants. But it is still a Game problem that dogs and cats don't think of terraces and porches as house parts, while sims definitely consider them already inside. This drives me crazy, when in freezing temp they go out in their light clothes and then shiver from cold.
This is just insane)
Even when my dog (real I mean)) was a little puppy she would never do her potty on my porch. Grass, grass.... Or some stones for her 🙂
6 years of the game, I think this could have been corrected many times.
@SheriGR As for poops, I used them as fertilizers (until they stopped working)
Otherwise I leave it for Maids for now)) But... there are some trash plants appearing on the porch suddenly 🙂 Well, how do they grow without ground, that's the question.
@koshechka84 Wait WHAT?! Okay something is REALLY wrong with your porches. If a plant can grow on it without a pot, it's officially acting like ground. It's no wonder your dogs are going there! As far as the game is concerned your porch is being registered as actual ground! I can't say I've ever encountered this scenario before. Can you put flooring down on it? Can you clean the pee puddles or does it tell you only a neat freak would try to clean the ground? This is weird. I'm actually curious about this one! I suppose you could try redoing the porches and see if that helps, but I'm officially perplexed.

@PriestessAvenara It was only once. I was shocked too, when I saw it. There was a screenshot, but it is now somewhere on the external disk.
After that I reset the lot. By the way it was on the biggest lot in Willow Creek (Don't remember the name, unfortunately) Near the door mat.
So "Can you put flooring down on it? Can you clean the pee puddles or does it tell you only a neat freak would try to clean the ground?" Yes, with flooring all is ok. And yes, the puddles are cleanable.
I think it was some weird bug. Don't know what could reason it, though.
I think after this I started to forced the dogs to go for a walk (with mods, unfortunately).

Once they grow up to adults they will be able to go down stairs you got to retrain them by calling them to the spot in the yard you want them to go potty and they will go potty around that spot all the time.
