For those of you that use pee pads... do you never intend for your dog to be trained to go outside or do you just use these while you are away? I used these when our pup first came home and she did use them, but also used everywhere and anywhere else she could find(they are gated in the kitchen when we are gone). If you train your dog with these pads will that confuse them about where they really should go? I dont like the idea of having dog that thinks he can just go inside (like a cat in a litter box...thats just me)...though I dont mind if he uses them while we are away instead of the floor. What do you think...are these helpful or not, and why would a newspaper not do the same thing? Thanks.
