Our new 1 yr old boy, Cole goes nicely on the washable wee wee pads....Since I take the other 2 out to go, the second he pees or poops outside, I say 'treat' treat' all the way in to the house to the cabinet to get the 'special' treat....He now beats me to the cabinet...Whatever the special treat may be, only use it for going on the wee wee pad or outside so they can relate to a positive reward....good luck...
