please can someone tell me why pee pads are mentioned so much on this section
we are in the uk and when we get a dog we just pop leash on and take out each 2/3 hours say wee wee and dog wees
i have had 2 dogs and my family has between them another 4 dogs and they are all trained the same way
when i got joe he weed in house 4 times in 3 months thats all the slip ups he had and 2 of them were because i could not get to the door quick enough
as for belly bands what ever are these for
same as crates we never use a crate we just train the dogs not to go where we dont want them to but to be honest my dog is my best buddy and if he lives in my home with me he is able to go anywhere in the house he wants but he is house trained
please let dogs be dogs and not things to have lots of restrictions placed on them
sorry if i seem to be ranting but it seems so unreal to read about so many pee pads and crates
