I had several posts to my 1st and only post a few weeks back about the pee-pad question.

I want to post her picture on here, and as soon as I get them developed, I'll see about getting one on here.

Gabby is so sweet. She's pretty hyper, and I don't know if that's the breed in general, or if she still has a lot of puppy left in her. She's not 6 mo's, like I first mentioned, she turned 5 months old Jan. 13th.

She still goes on the pee-pads 95% of the time, but perhaps once or twice at the most in an entire week, she might squat and go on the carpet someplace. Don't know why????? And, she now NEVER, ever poops on the pad. I'm not as concerned about the poop...I know that sounds gross, I mean, I wish she'd do both on pads, but the poop is easier to just pick up, verses having to clean up pee on the carpets, etc. So I'm thankful she pees on the pad.

Anyone know why she might go on the carpet once in a while? I change her pads regularly, and I've also tried leaving one down longer, (to have the spots on them for her to smell). I don't get it.
