Have you tried a pad holder or a litter box? Max also thought that pee pads were his chew toys when I tried to use them with him. First, I tried a pad holder (it looks like a plastic picture frame that goes around the pad) to keep it in place but he tried to chew that as well. Ieven spreyed the holder with bitter apple!! Then I bought a doggie litter box but used the pads in the box rather than the dog litter. He thought that I purchased him a new bed because he chose to lay in the litter box with his chew toy to pass the time. The pads in the litter box however, worked wonders with Abbie. In a very short time, she was pad trained. However, she wouldn't use the pads if they were not in the litter box. Eventually she preferred to go outside and just stopped using the pads. I heard that some dogs do well with dog litter. Maybe if they keep ripping up the pads try the dog litter (I think it's called yesterday's news.)
