| I have it. I put a pee pad underneath the grate so it is earier to clean. But you could also use newspapers to help with the cleaning process. I got mine from catwalkfurniture it is cheaper

| We use it ... the puppies it great. you just have to take the time to show them how to use it. I still use the wee pad as it aborbs better then paper. What we did to train them to use it first Was place the wee wee pad in the Wizdog tray without the grid cover. Let puppy pee on wee wee pad first for like two weeks lots of treats and don't forget to use the command go potty or something like that. Once they start going in that spot by themselves then... let puppy pee on the pad and then place the grid on top. let the puppy explor it... Next use the same command go potty . Again once they go lots of treats and hug. chelsey and chester both can go outside or in... on the Wizdog or just the Wee wee pad. It was very helpfull and keeps your floors clean |

What I find that is cool ,is it keeps the smell down in the home. Were if you use the wee wee pad by it self.... I change them more offten cause I can't take the smell. So in a way I do save more money.. very easy to clean... | |

| I'm one of the detractors of the Wizdog. I wasn't impressed with it at all. It really just didn't do the job I was hoping it would. It also seemed really flimsy and cheap. One of the big things I didn't like about it was that it's too big for a standard size wee wee pad and is better suited for newspaper. I ended up just buying some chicken wire w/ smaller holes and attaching it to my pee pad frame and that's worked great and only cost a few bucks. I've also still be considering getting this one from Puppy In Style. It's cheaper than the Wizdog and looks a little higher in quality.

For me I whish I had gotten two. I mainly leave it in the living room near the outside door. I Just have a Wee wee pad down stairs in the bastment , That's where I would like to put an other one. I live in canada so the shipping charges were high. Plus the excange doller at the time I bought it was not good. Maybe you can get one from someone here who did not work for them. But I'm glad we got it. We take with use when we go to the inlaws and lay it on the porch. The grid feels funny on there paws because of the holes you have to get them used to it. At first chelsey did not like the feel either. Just like regular training it takes time. She uses it everyday now and she knows exactly were to go . I only change the pad three times a week but i use a thicker pad not the blue ones. I use the grass sented ones from Petsmart ... they cost a bit more but they are bigger and hold more liquid and help elininate the smell as well. So I end up saveing money in the long run. I would never put the blue one down stairs on my carpet with out a wizdog or something under neith. I find the blue wee wee pads leak | |

| a long time ago i posted about the wizdog.. well i bought it and i hate it and wish i could return it lol.. not only did it mess up my dog's potty training.. but they were scared of it.. no matter how slow i introduced them to it. so i have just wasted about 50 dollars on it.. it works for some.. but it definately did not work for me.. it took me about a month to get my kiddies back to their regular potty training.. gosh when i got that wizdog.. they just poo'd pee'd anywhere and everywhere without a care in the world.. but if you decide to buy it best wishes and hope it works for you |
