| Puppy Pad Question? HI! I have a silly question about the puppy pee pads... Does you dog bite and drag the pad around? Just curious if you had any wise ideas of how to keep it in place? She is not chewing it or anything, just relocating it and messing it up so she can't use it. Thanks!

| You can buy pad holders at Walmart or any pet store and it holds it in place pretty well if you can jam it against or wall or something. My puppy doesn't move the pad, now he's somehow getting his bed on top of the pee pad and can't go on the pad so goes in the playpen all over. I have to figure out how to anchor his bed down. |

| Yes, and yes! I try to anchor the pad down with something, but it is still a 'relocation' battle. Although I have at least 3 pads down at all times, typically 1 is crumpled up..........I just calmly go about my business in winning this battle of wills! You know how they say that mom's have eyes in the back of their heads? I think this goes double for potty training puppies!

| Yes I found that as well. I put down washable pads. I got them at the medical supply store. They are for people with incontinence problems. Very handycost a bit at first but you dont have to keep getting more. |

| Yeah.. Bruce used to do that. I couldnt keep him from dragging it around hehe. He even used to lay on it and sleep on it. So now his bed I bought him is his new toybox and he either sleeps on or under the bed when hes not on his pee pad. I did try to anchor it down too.. but somehow he still gets it..

| Shadow has done it a couple times but I think i was due to him being bored. I was raining out and we couldn't walk him and we didn't leave out his toys that day when we went to work. |

| I had that trouble with disposable pads. But now I've switched to washable pads too. They are sturdier and a little heavier. I would put a gallon plastic milk bottle full of water in the middle of the pad. See if that works.

| I've already used duct tape to hold them in place. |

| I have noticed the trend slowing on this problem. I would clap my hands or say no. We still have an occasional relocation, but not as much as before. My husband wants me to order the faux grass now! His comment was, aaahhh when are getting the indoor potty grass?

It has been the clean pads that she drags away and chews up, never a dirty one! | |

| Mine would tear up the pee pads also but I started getting the washable pee pads and they don't bother it |
