I agree with Tara. When pad trained they never learn to hold it. I got Pixie at 13 months ans she was not trained in the least. I had Cali who was pad trained and my older pom who is only trained to go outside. I tried pad training Pixie and she would not train to the pads and had many many accidents. Then one day she just started to go outside like my Pom. So I made a big deal whenever she goes outside and give herr treats. She is 3 now and while she still has the occassional accident she goes outside most of the time. Now Roxie and Cali only use the pads and will never go outside even on walks. |
