how do i train on wee wee pad When we first got Lila we trained her to go in the bathroom, but she never used the weewee pads. We want her to use the pads right outside the bathroom, but she would rather run into the bathroom and do her thing. What is the proper way to to train on weewee pads? I've tried saying No really stern when she doesn't use them and giving her treats/kisses when she does but she would still rather run to the bathroom floor. |
Perhaps try putting them on the bathroom floor and slowly move them? Also, with Lucy (our potty battles are ongoing), when she would go on the pad I would leave it down for a bit. It really helped her to "get it" that the pad was the place to go :) I'm sure others will be sharing their experience with you also :) |
yeah, that sounds like a good idea. we started ours on the paper inside and slowly moved them out (the pads) near the door where they go outside. soon they were going outside and we had no problems . moving the pads slowly to where you want them is a good idea. :D |
If she wets on the floor, use a paper towel to mop it up, then put the paper towel on the pee pad. You might also try "Jump Start" pee pads that you get at Petsmart. They really attract the dog to pee on them. I would also start with the pad in the bathroom, then gradually move it to where you want it to be. |
I would do what's already suggested, put the pads in her normal spot, then slowly move them to where you want her to go. It might take some time, so be sure to reward her every time she goes on them, and don't slack on the training! LOL. Hope it works out for you! |
Make sure you clean up the floor with some kind of cleaner designed to remove pet stain/odors also. This is to remove the scent all together so she won't keep going back.:) |
Meeka and Bella are both pad trained. They kind of feed off each other on training. I reward them when they go on the pad (Even now that they are totally pad trained I still reward them when I see them go) and when they would go anywhere else but on the pad and I caught them in the act I would sternly say no and bring them over to the pad immediately. It was a long process but they have it down now (Although if I give them total and free run of the house they will always go downstairs and potty all over my carpet so I block off the stairs for downstairs and let them have the upstairs to themselves.) I am not sure about moving the pads though, when I started pad training them I have always kept it in the same spot so they didn't get confused. I would think that just by slowly moving it would be less confusing than just moving it far all in 1 day. Good Luck!! |
