It will take a while and my suggestion is to not give him a lot of space right now till he starts using the pad. Its fine to take out of pen and play a bit only when you can watch him though. Put right back in pen when done. Also some trainers will say not to let him out of pen unless he is on a leash connected to you until he is trained. It is a lot of patience and work but worth it when done. He is still very young. After eating, drinking, playing take straight to pad. Place the pad just a few inches from his bedding (crate) so when he gets up he walks right to it. Good luck. |
My apartment is to small for an xpen, however I have been using my kitchen the same way, its very small, but long and I put up a baby gate and put his crate and puppy pad in there with food and water, it works very well.

I have not thought of a kitty or guinea pig halter, that is a very good idea.
Thank you.... Now if I can just get the boyfriend to cooperate and not give him free roam of the house.
