Oh my goodness, I am so sorry this was such a long post, I didn't realize last night when I wrote it, I was tired and just went on and on. So sorry everyone!

Piddle Place
 

Answer to sliding:
Most people leave the Piddle Place in a corner with the Protective Guard on it, so when the dog jumps on it, it really does not move. I have people with boats and mobile homes that use a piece of that stuff that goes under a carpet to keep it from sliding (cost about $2 at Bed Bath & Beyond) That works great. You only need a small piece. I do have people that use velcro, but it makes it tough to lift up, so I would not try it.

Long answer to "WHY" I thank you for asking :)
Hello again Winston, and a sniff from Jaz. I work as a nurse, and when my shift changed from a 8 hour shift to a 10 hour shift, I had to come up with something for my Jaz. The Piddle Place is certainly not for everyone, but just those of us who are potty training a puppy, older dogs, dogs that would otherwise use puppy pads (yuck), and for times we can't be home. Certainly every dog needs to go outside and play, and go outside to poop and pee. This is just for times when weather does not permit a walk (jaz hates wet paws) or you cant be home. Certainly not to sell our product, but we won Pet Product News Editors Choice Award for best new product 2013, and last week we won Best new product (Beckers Best) at Pet Global from Dr. Mary Becker (Good Morning America and Vetstreet). There is a need for a product such as Piddle Place, but I agree, outside is best.

Winston and mom, I volunteer at our local shelter where I adopted my Yorkie. So many dogs are there because of housebreaking issues. These little guys need loving home. We donate hundreds of Piddle Places to shelters in hopes that it solves a problem and encourages adoption. Dr. Becker told me that when a dog is turned into a shelter, they wind up laying in their own waste, and this compounds the problem of adoption, since they become depressed and further learn bad behavior. I take no salary or fee from the Piddle Place, its our goal here to change the way we think about our pets. To allow our dogs the comfort and dignity of relieving themselves if needed when we can't be home. Dog walkers are too expensive for many of us working ladies, and puppy pads go into our landfill, and are unsanitary. I thank you for even considering the concept of an indoor pet toilet. I agree its not for everyone, and nothing replaces exercise, and the excitement Jaz finds when a lizard crosses her path in my yard.

I thank you for listening, and even thinking to ask. God Bless!

Well, both posts answer a lot of questions. Thanks!!! I wish I had more advice for you and Milo, but I do not. Putting the nonslip pad under it might help secure it so that he'll feel more comfortable using it, keeping it from moving. I have the ideal situation and a dog, as a puppy, that was easily trained. He still to this day, 10 years later, has never had an accident indoors. I've never used pads for him but I tried with my 1st Yorkie as advised by many...he just had a great time tearing them up into tiny pieces...so no more pads for me, thank you very much. I live in Illinois, we have some hot days and a lot of bitterly cold days, Winston still potty's outside...just much quicker. lol...
Milo probably finds the cloth pads comfortable...so he wants to sleep, play and eat there. Would getting him his very own blankie to lay out on the floor work, or will he think it's another place to potty??? Hmmm, maybe someone else will have a better solution...but good luck, hope he eventually learns this is only to potty on.

I have the sameeeee problem. The funny thing is chloe will only do it when I'm home, lol. When I say no she just looks up with a mouth full of pee pad. I'm hoping she will grow out of this soon!
