Rather than try to pad train (unless you want to for inclement weather too) I would do short leash walks in the yard.

Stay safe!
Thank you! I'm going to go ahead with pad training, Holly is stubborn when it's raining and cold, so she will like it better on those day Presley loves the rain, loves getting wet, so it will keep him out of trouble If they stalked me on walks I would have a fit!! It is sad when we can't enjoy our backyards with the babies and they love to run and play, but I'm like you I am not taking the chances. I still cannot get over the sheer size of the owl from yesterday, and knowing he had been lurking and only a swoop away when they were outside did me in...
