Oh I know the feeling, Buddy wont pee on the pad if there is more than three pee's on it, certainly wont go near it if he has poo'd on it. If I try and move the pee pad closer to the door so that he will eventually understand that he has to go outside to wee, he will just go to where the pee pad
was and wee there. I do believe that telling him how good he was when he did his first pee on the pad in that area was a bad idea, cause now he thinks its a good idea. Buddy is 5 months old
