[Little Bit]

Welcome to YT! You have been given some very good suggestions.

I have had good luck with training my puppies to a washable potty pad. They took right to it and have done very well. I have a puppy pen like the one in the Wal-mart link given. When they were tiny puppies I covered most of the pen with pads except where their bed was. That got them used to going on pads. Then as they got older I started making the padded area smaller and smaller until there was just one pad at one end of the pen and their bed in the other. Now they have they whole room (no more pen) and they still go on the pads and not the floor. They are pretty tough and they don't shred them like the paper ones. If you decide to use a litter box I can custom make pads to fit the box.

They are easy to wash just wash them separately with warm water and regular laundry detergent. No fabric softeners. Hope this helps!
