Today I picked up a spray for her pads to enhance the "gotta go" smell...hoping it'll work. Maybe they should make poop-pads.

We just bought her an expen today and we'll see if that helps. If anyone else is going/has gone through this and has two cents to add, go for it! Otherwise, I'm just sharing my experience

My little guy is 12 wks plus and is doing much better on the wee wee pads. We started rewarding him with 2 pieces of his puppy food as a treat and making a big deal out of it. I have them in a glass candy dish with a lid and he now knows the sound. He's starting to go over to the pads now and looks at us as if to say -- hey I've done something here, come check it out. But I know what you are talking about with the pooping -- Mattie is starting on the pads but keeps walking off of them. So I'm hopeful that the treat idea will kick in for that too, because he doesn't get a treat if he gets off the pad.
