Washable Potty Pads? - Page 2 - YorkieTalk.com Forums

Me too!

mismolly · 12-20-2010, 11:44 AM

Please do tell me. I plan to put a pad once I get it at the spot upstairs (right at the top of the stairs!) where she seems to go pee most often when we aren't looking. Do you think she will know that that cute pad is for her to pee on? Or should I do something to help her get it? Once she does get it, I plan to slowly move the pad to a better out of the way spot.

Just be sure to take her to her pad regularly and praise and reward her when she uses it. Say the same phrase each time. I put Sophie on there and say, "Go potty." If she doesn't go right away and looks at me, I say, "Hurry up." She goes pee every time I put her on there. Hadn't had a pee pee accident in many weeks. Funny thing is thought when she's home alone, she always uses pad to pee and poop, but when I'm home, she pees on it but poops in the floor. We still have to work on that. She's doing great though. Love my girl.

I have never been able to get Molly to potty on demand. I have to give her privacy and not look at her and hope that she will go. I plan on trying your suggestion though. I just hope she catches on soon once I get them. I hope with her being over a year it is not too late to still teach! :v My little girl is such a lover though. She is snuggled on my lap as we speak. I am so sick of this rain I have been listening to Phantom on You tube and posting my fav songs on F/B all day! lol

Know what you mean. Sophie is on my lap now too. She has to be with me wherever I go. She will be 10 months old Thursday. I am glad I decided to pee pad train her instead of going outside. Don't have to worry about rain or cold. She is a diva and is super spoiled.

elemtchr99 · 12-20-2010, 06:41 PM

Oh, and good luck!!! Also, what pattern did you buy? We have brown & pink paisley and the pink cupcake print. They are so cute!

mismolly · 12-20-2010, 06:45 PM

Oh for sure! My Molly would have been trampled on by our wild Lab if she had to go outside. OR picked up by a Hawk or even a Mountain lion which was once spotted on the hill behind us and we had a pack of coyotes there too this year. A mama and her babies. Oh.. and let me not forget the scorpion that my lab was fighting with one night at midnight and had the neighbors call me over!

As for the pattern... I almost bought the pretty pink ones, but I think I ended up with dogs at the beach. I figured they would match better with my carpet and furniture.

lol Also got the same so that she wouldn't get confused. Dork, I know....

mismolly · 12-20-2010, 06:46 PM

Btw... I like your flipping avitar. How can I do that??

A YT member made my avatar. Sad to say I don't remember who

There are a few on here that will.

mismolly · 12-20-2010, 07:07 PM

Oh well... It's pretty cool! I like it!

I love my washable for little pups. I don't care for them for my adult dogs. They seemed to start peeing on anything laying in the floor...so I went back to disposable with them

107barney · 12-21-2010, 06:20 AM

All three of my adult dogs use pads. I keep them in the same spots so that they know where to go. Barney is 100% reliable and will leave from one room to another to use his pad. Daisy is 100% reliable with urine but sometimes not as reliable with poop but she has Inflammatory Bowel Disease so sometimes on route to the pad, she leaves a bunny trail. Poor thing. Teddy is getting better every day. His training has been stalled due to his congenital bladder problems, neurological problems, and now his newly identified kidney problems. So I really don't expect him to ever be perfect, but he is pretty good - he goes on his pads, but sometimes he forgets where they are due to his memory problems. We just redirect him and help him get to the right spot. When I'm not home, I sometimes see accidents but he can't help it

I just keep them in my kitchen when not home so it is easy cleanup. They are all good dogs.

I've had my Lexi for a week and a few days and she has yet to have an accident. She uses these washable pads everytime!
