Well i got Lily from a great breeder and she was allready "allmost" trained.Make sure that you lay the pad down in the spot's where your's likes to go,also keeping them confined to an x-pen or crate is also very helpful.I know most people say that you should have a small crate that they cant do much in but i did the opposite.I got a very large crate.It is big enough for her,her bed,food and a potty pad.She picked up very fast that she need's to go to her crate to potty.I also never take my eye of her.Also make sure that about 15 to 20min's after a meal they need to go potty.Also taking them to the potty pad about every 30min's or so to pee,they will catch on fast.My lily learned fast that when she was put to her pad that if she did not go she got locked into her crate till she did.She now goes when she need's to by her self.I also have another crate in the bedroom so if she's in either end she doesent have to go far.I was lucky she was very easy to train and has not had 1 accedent at all.Good luck!
