| Chewing up the Potty Training Pads OK guys, I need a little bit of help on this one. My little one has begun to start chewing up her potty training pads. I am afraid that she is going to hurt herself or die; because when I came home the other day, it looked as if she had vomited a piece of the backing up. I don't know what to do, I have to work, but I am afraid for her. Are there any suggstions on this that someone could help me with. I am desparate. |

| the have a tray that clips the potty pads in..a holder. im pretty sure ive read on here you can get them at walmart and such to help this. hope that helps unless you have one already also t bumpkins sells washable potty pads which would help you all together not have to worry about your baby eating the disposible ones.

| Hope you fix that because my youngest did the same thing when she was small and almost choked to death. I tried to keep her from chewing it, but nothing worked. I had to rush her to the ER Vet. |

| I tried the pee pad holder and Miss Priss would just start biting the center and then the party began. Good luck, maybe the fabric pads would be better.

| I've always used the holders, and only had a issue with Chase (when he was a puppy) chewing the pads the one time I bought the unquilted pads. He would shred those, but not the quilted ones, so I have always bought the quilted ones ever since. I did buy a pooch pad (washable pad) to see if he would use it, but it doesn't fit in the holder so I never even tried. |

| My girls did this all of the time at the beginning too so I started to use washable pee pads which I love. I love the one from this site and I believe that there is a special on now for 20 percent off for YT members. Washable Dog Pee Pads | Cotton Cloth Fabric Selections |

| How often do you wash the washable ones? How many do you have? I was thinking of getting washable ones, but does that mean that I would need to wash a dry one everyday? |
