Pee Pad Tips Liberty has a hard plastic pee pad holder. We used to put pee pads on it but Liberty would only use it once or twice as he is a " dainty thang" who doesn't like to chance getting his feet wet. It became awfully expensive, so now we collect newspapers & trade sheets and I can easily just change that several times a day. We practice intermittent reinforcement by offering a crazy amount of praise occassionally & tiny piece of treat. So now, Liberty loves to use his pad! The pad is very handy when I am recovering from one of my many surgeries. He knows to try to urinate on command on walks because he's given the same words that are used during praise. It is amazing how much they understand. Liberty know that chances are I am going out when he hears me use my automated bank system on the cell phone and he starts running around. Am going to have to start spelling or use French because he understands key words! LOL. Enjoy your baby!!!!!! |
Our Katie Scarlett is pee pad trained and does very well with it. She caught on very quickly. She rarely ever has an accident now. We use the Potty Training Puppy Apartment system. It was on the pricey side, but it has been one of the best purchases we have made. I buy the pads at Tractor Supply in a box of 100 for $20. We change the pad every day. Katie Scarlett will pee and poop on it. After each poop, I will go pick it up with a tissue and flush it. We do take the PTPA with us when we travel by car, but not by plane. When we travel by plane (which is almost always to our parents house), I use one of those plastic clip in trays that you can buy. I got it at Wal Mart. Katie Scarlett does seem to sort of wander off the pad on these though. She may start going on them, but then walk off and do the rest of her business on the other. I am not sure if it's because it's just a change or what, but we love the PTPA. It does have a little space for a bedroom in it, but we have now taken the divider out. She either sleeps with us or in her big girl bed and only uses it for potty time. |

I have two questions... What size puppy apartment did you get? I have a double door crate with a divider that I am looking to cut a hole in and make into a puppy apartment, but I want to make sure it's big enough. The next question is what kind of pads do you get from the Tractor Store? Do you have a link? Thanks in advance! |
