2. Does the choice of potty tools make a difference? That is to say, do you think using doggy litter vs pee pads would this change the answer to question #1.
3. If your dog is trained to go indoors at your house, how easy is it to train her to do it on her chosen material (pee pad or doggy litter) when in a hotel or someone else's house?
4. Which do you like better, pee pads or doggy litter and why?
5. Any advice/suggestions on things that worked for you that would help me in this area?
Thanks for your help and expertise. |
1. Tell that trainer to come to my house...........hahahahahahaha!!!!!
2. I use disposable pads only. Much easier to travel with and go into motels.
3.They naturally go on the pads wherever the pads happen to be.
4. Pads of course. As I mentioned in #2
5. I started all three of my girls in an expen with pads down, then gradually let them have a little more room at a time in the kitchen area.
