| What you do is get an empty two liter coke bottle, fill it with water, wrap a pee pad around it . secure with a rubber band or just tuck it in, then sit it in the middle of your peepad. it's like a little fire hydrant for the boys to hike on. |

| For real? I hadn't thought of doing anything like that. Rily is doing fairly well with the pads now, but he still doesn't hike. Thanks, I'll try this once he starts peeing like a boy. |

| I use to buy some small and heavy junk from dollar store and put it in the middle of the pad for them to pee on it. Now they just pee on the middle like there was still something there. |

| George squats on pads inside and lifts his leg outside, once trained never had any problem (fingers crossed)

| If you neuter before he learns to hike, he'll stay a squatter |

| Since I usually stay up nights, I have more coffee cans than coke bottles... |

| My terrible experence with Pee Pads. Hey everyone, Ok so I know pretty much everyone uses pee pads but when I used them, I found it did long term damage to our "outside" training. Dooie got so used to peeing on the pads that he wouldn't go outside, he'd just hold it and the second he came in, he'd go on the pad. I didn't like this because I'd have to have a pad in the house on the floor out in the open. A used pee pad does not look pretty. Not to mention they can smell too. And it's a little awkward when Dooie went pee infront of company. The other annoying things, was during his "pee pad" phase, if ever I left a towel or a shirt or even a sock for that matter on the floor, he would pee on it. How gross. He even lifted his leg on the bed at the pillows. It was almost like he thought everything was a pee pad. We had to work so hard for so long to finally get Dooie going outside ONLY. Once we took the pads away completely, we had our eyes on Dooie non-stop, otherwise he would pee on the carpet. So frustrating!! I don't know anyone else who went through that much of an ordeal while pee pad training, but even so, I did and for that reason, I'm really against Pads.

YorkieTalk Newbie! | it took me 2 weeks to potty train my 12 month old yorkie. he is 5 months now, and i noticed sometimes he will pee on towels or like cardboards on the ground. im guessing he thinks they are potty pads as well. overall he does pretty well but he sometime misses and the pee leaks off the pad! he has accidents but thats normal... |

We only use pee pads for when we go to work and they are in their x-pens. Otherwise my two are outdoor doggies.
