we used pee pads in their kennel when we were gone more than 4 hours at a time. they both learned to hold it more than 8 hours and we never have to clean them up, but at least it's an option if they need it. i also offer a pee pad when it's cold or raining but Sadie refuses and only will go outside. Bentley doesn't know the difference really either. mine are just so outside trained that pee pads are around but they don't really know why. but i believe you can train for both and i hope you get better answers |
