People have to work. The schedule is what it is, saying she shouldn't own a dog is not helpful.

I like the wading pool, but I would add something, I would put cedar chips in it. Teach the dog to go in the cedar chips in the pool outside. Then bring the pool in and leave the cedar chips in it with a little urine. Remove poop daily, switch chips weekly.

Put it a room with no carpeting if possible.

Cedar chips deter bugs, and have a pleasent odor about them. Taking poop out immediatly would probably make the house not smell too bad. Also, for the most part, dogs can be trained to poop prior to you going to work. This will limit the amount of poop in the dog, and thus the amount of poop pooped during the day.

Just thinking about smell.
