Even if we are out for an extended period of time and I try to get him to use the pad in a rest room, the suv trunk, the ground, he just sniffs, walks away and waits until he gets home.

The disposable wee pads are convenient for both Romeo AND me.
Not trying to change your mind, but for others who freak out about this, urine and relatively sterile, in other words, a healthy dog should not have bacteria in its urine. Feces while loaded with bacteria, should be firm if the dog is on the right diet, and it should be flushed away, not washed. There should be no contamination of your washer when washing pee pads.
