Luckily for me Wallee will still use his pads inside if the weather's bad. Sheesh keeping them clean this time of year is a disaster. Snow is melting here and tge sidewalks have muddy puddles everywhere. Each walk means straight to the tub to wash his entire underbelly and paws. Even if he wears his boots to keep his paws clean, his belly and coat are all muddy....come on summer.
