Chloe will use the pee pads anywhere we go. I even put them on the floor of our SUV when traveling , and she will pee there while we are driving . I haven't read all the replies , so sorry if I'm repeating ( and most likely am .) How about a pee pad ( or a couple) under the table and give her a treat only when she goes on that one and then slowly moving it where you want her to go.

I started out with three pee pads all in different rooms , and worked my way down to one in our family room. Chloe will now run to it from anywhere in the house , and hasn't went potty anywhere else since.. ( She is always in our site so that helps , and I do also have one upstairs that she will use if she is in the kids room playing and can't get down the stairs.)

I worked her down to only using one by giving her treats only when she used the one I wanted her to use , and in less than two weeks she was only using that pad. At first after she peed or pooed she got a treat and lots of praise , then I slowly slacked off on treats after a pee and now she only gets LOTS of praise when she pees but no treats .

She still gets treats for pooing on the pad . To make sure she poos only on the pad I use her FAVORITE treat , and the ONLY time she gets that one is after she poos on the pad. So she poos then chases me down and runs back to show me her poo and demand her treat by barking at me LOUDLY She knows that's the only time she gets that particular treat.

Good luck
