| puppy pads we just brought home our 8-month old from a breeder. he is puppy pad trained, but we're having trouble getting him to use a puppy pad in our house - not sure if its because he doesn't know where it is yet, or if he's just not comfortable in our house yet (he's been there 3 days). he will only pee outside, and when we put him on the pad, he runs off. we even tried the spray that is supposed to make them want to urinate in a specific place. Any suggestions? |

| I found that if you put a bit of the puppy's own urine on the pad it helps them to understand that that is where pee-pee goes. Also, it helps to praise them and offer a treat after they do their business where they are supposed to! We are always doing the "happy pee-pee" dance in our house when they use their pads. Hope this helps

| When I was pad training, my breeder had told me to always try to keep the pad in the same place. I use the brand Lil Stinkers, and I think there is something on them to make them want to use them! My friends chihuahua runs straight to them and tinkles |
