Destroying Pee Pad and Holder I'm getting really frustrated now that my 3 month old Yorkiepoo has figured out how to open the pee pad holder. He always used to rip up the pee pads so I bought a holder. In a day or two, my little boy has figured out how to drag the pad out from the sides and also open the holder and get to ripping everything up again. I have to replace the pad 6+ times a day because of this. It's not only annoying and gross but it's also a health concern. I've found bits of cotton from the pee pad in his poop once. How can I get him to just leave it alone? He loves ripping up, chewing and destroying everything! I have a nylabone for him, a kong, 2 stuffed toys and a ball for him to play with but nothing appeals to him more than chewing and destroying the things he isn't supposed to touch. |
Do you have a handy significant other? Go to Home Depot and make a square box that he can easily jump onto and get grass (real or fake). This will also help if you are out and about with him and you don't have a pee pad. He will get use to the grass and go in any grass area. |
Try the reusable ones. He may try to destroy it but once he isn't successful he may stop. I got mine on Amazon and my puppy used them with no problem or training. I wish I didn't buy so many though because now he only goes outside. |

Pee pad Hello. I don't know if you have seen The Piddle Place pee pad system? The owner of the pad is a member here.....the Piddle Place I believe. It is a very sturdy system that looks hard to destroy. They have a web site that explains. May be good for a cold climate when the dog cannot go outside? I do not use this as my adopted dog is accustomed only to going outside. Good luck, it is a real problem I am sure. |
Sounds like a puppy to me! I broke the habit by using washable pads for a short while. Even though I use disposables now, the washable ones are still good to put in Gracie's stroller and carrier, so they are by no means a waste. Aren't puppies a mess?;) |
I had the same problem but it got solved by completely not using a pee pad holder at all. I think the pee pad holder just made my pup want to challenge herself lol.. by trying to rip it up. Your pup is still a baby but he will outgrow this. Just make sure he has toys and other things to bite and play with. |
We don't use pee pads much anymore, but when we do we actually tape it to the ground. I'm sure that Bentley scratches and digs at it a bit, but he can't get at it with his teeth. |
Pee pad holder. I buy pads with adhesive in four corners. They are quilted pet smart top paw. Works great mine was doing exactky c same as you. |
