I use washable pee pads, but if I had it to over again - I'd do outdoors bc I think when you let them go indoors - it's somewhat confusing for them and there will almost always be accidents, for most dogs. That's been my experience. Pads are definitely convenient, but what you really need to ask yourself is "do I want to deal w/ off-pad pees/poops"? And remember, you won't likely be able to use ANY rugs in your house if you pad train bc they view rugs as "pee pads" too.
