oh, i totally agree with you on this, gracielove...
wish my Gus had been pad trained but never even thought of it when he was a pup 9 years ago...
yep, had the same problem when i decided to move them, he then went on the floor where the pad had been, and only moved them a few feet...one isn't enough for him, as he never goes in the middle of a pad...

When I removed the one in the bedroom she just went in the same spot she was accustomed to going. I had to put it back and ever so slowly move it toward the other one.
They are creatures of habit. Once they learn something, bad or good, it takes more training to change that in their minds.
If you train your pup correctly the first time you won't have a problem with the pads. |
