Motels and Pee Pads Gracie is pretty much pee pad trained in the house. I will be taking her to the beach for the first time in a couple of months. We will stay in a motel for a couple of nights. I have a one-room suite so I will have a good size bathroom and kitchen where I can "pen" her with her pee pad if I need to. When I take her to a friends house for the day, I just take her outside every couple of hours and she goes outside, no problem. My thought is to do that during the day and then take a once peed on pee pad with us to the hotel and put it in the bathroom, and show her where to go. Do you think she will get the idea right away and go on her pad in the bathroom? How have you "pee padders" handled pottying being away from home overnight? |
Hmmm maybe put a little of her own pee onto the potty pad that you are planning on using in the hotel so she will recognize to go there?:) |
You can purchase "housetraining spray" at the pet store. It is basically the stuff they scent pee pads with in a bottle. I am using it for Percy right now to help him know where to go. You spray a little on the pad, them show the pup, the scent makes them want to go there so they can mark it with their own scent. Maybe that will help point her in the right direction? |
I think you are doing everything right. We did the exact same thing several months ago when we had to travel overnight and stayed in a motel. We brought a 'used' pee pad with us, and the boys got the idea right away. I was so worried that they wouldn't accept being in a strange place, and they totally surprised me! Good Luck. :) |
Same here, I think they like to stick to pee pads in an unfamiliar place. Pepper wasn't even 6 months when we took him for a weekend trip and stayed at a hotel. At that time, he'd still have an accident in the house every now and then, and we were worried about pee pads a little. but he got it right away, the suite was pretty big and he didn't mess up once - wow. I think you shouldn't worry |
