By 6 months, the only "accidents" Jezebel had were when she went to the paper and didn't quite get her back end over the paper. If I happen to catch her doing that, I still praise her profusely, because she did stop whatever she was doing, go into another room, and squat over the paper. She did what she was supposed to do, and doesn't (or won't ever) have the ability to know that her back end wasn't quite in the right spot. Fussing at her in that situation would only confuse her and give her the idea that she wasn't supposed to be going on the pee pad.
