I use a fake turf grass over the pad also. On my porch. My porch is gated off so Moki can't run out. Hes train to go outside and use that. He will go in the grass. But in the dark morning I don't let him go into the yard or when its raining. I keep a pee pad in the house incase I don't hear the Poochie bell or when nobody is home for a long period. He rarely uses that. Our pup Weenie is using the pee pads now. But she rings the bells to go outside also. So imo pee pads full time will work if thats all you can use. But going for walks is good for the dogs and going into the yard. But imo the pads are cleaner and have less smell then a litter box. Mainly its easy to throw them away and use another vs cleaning the box. Guest don't care as long as they don't step on them and really who cares. Yorkies are first. |
