HI ! ! ! Don't feel badly. i feel like Hazel has regressed also. before she was sick last the week before last, she was doing VERY WELL on her puppy pads as well as peeing outside. but when she was sick, she first started missing the puppy pad by inches, but as the week went on adn she was still sick, she just started ignoring it completely. Now that shes better, if she's in her crate, she does her "potty whimper". otherwise i just take her outside frequently to see if she has to go. we haven't had any accidents in a while. its a working progress. i would keep the puppy pad there JUST IN CASE. there isn't a harm in it being there. i still keep Hazel's down even though she hasn't used it in forever. when she does the potty whimper, i'll take her out, and make her sit on top of it... she'll sit there for ages and CONTINUE doing the whimper instead of just peeing on it. she'd just rather go outside. |
