Changing location of potty pads My Brandi has been doing absolutely wonderful using the potty pads. As a result, she now is allowed to roam the house when I'm not home. She uses the potty pads in the middle of the night and when I'm at work. But when I am home, we go out on daily walks and she has no problem with pottying outside.
My delimma is that I would like to change the location of her potty pad. I start potty pad training her by placing the potty pads where she had the most accidents which unfortunately for me is in a corner in my living room. As long as I put the potty pad in that exact same location, she will use it everytime. However, if I move it even just an inch, she won't use it. For obvious reason, I would like to change it to one of the powder rooms, that no one uses but I can't get her to go anywhere else. I have made sure that no scent is left behind by thoroughly cleaning the area with Nature's Miracle and other enyme base products to no avail.
I have tether her to me in hopes of catching her the in act so that I can take her to the new location to potty to no avail. Am I doom to having potty pads in the living room which really sucks big time? She hated her expen because she was a rescue that was confine to a small crate her whole life and to be honest for the first two years I had her, it didn't stop her from pottying in her sleeping area as that was what she was use too anyway. Any suggestions? |
