Fresh Patchthe real-grass, fully disposable dog pottyis riding the tail of dog trends. The American Pet Products Association reports that the number of small dogsunder 25 poundsin the United States has grown significantly. Small dog numbers are up from 34.1 million in 2008 to 40.8 million in 2012.

"We saw this trend coming," says the Fresh Patch Company, "and we designed our product to match it. Our real-grass potty is the perfect size for dogs up to 25 pounds. It's also an easy size for owners to discard."

The Company says that many of its customers with small dogs are women. Market researcher Damian Shore has noted that: "There are more single and unmarried women in their late 20s and early 30s, which also happens to be the demographic that buys the most small dogs."

Another welcome demographic for the Fresh Patch Company is that nearly 80 percent of Americans live in urban areas. "We knew we had the perfect solution for dog owners in high-rise buildings who want to avoid dog-walking late at night," says the Company. "They like the fact that our dog potty is compact, light-weight, dirt-free, and conveniently delivered to their doors. Plus, the scent of our hydroponic grass naturally attracts dogs and puppies."

"We haven't forgotten about large dogs either," says the Company. "We have many customers who get two or more of our Fresh Patch units and join them together."
