They use the pads just fine by themselves but sometimes a bit may come off the side or seep underneath, so I wanted the pad holder. But once I put the pad into the holder, they will not use it. I don't know what the deal is -- not one of the 3 will use the pad when in the holder. It's like they made a pact between themselves and just won't use it. I'd sell it cheap but shipping would not be reasonable -- cheaper for you to just go to Walmart and buy one or two.
I have only read one other person who said their dogs would not use the pads if it was in a holder so I don't think it is a wide-spread problem. I probably should try again and be more patient this time, but I don't want to have them going off the pad again either! |
I got the one from Walmart also and Nala wouldn't use it either. She would go beside it.
I then took it up and put down her pad and when she used the pad, I put it in the holder and put it back down. She has used it ever since with no problem.
The first few times I would try to catch her when she used it and give her a treat and a big "pee dance party". Maybe that would work for you too??
