training pads

[hollie91999]

I use them because my baby is small and I am not comfortable with him having to go outside ( I have a deck that he can go under and may get stuck and I can't reach him). Also because I'm lazy, it is so much easier, he will also go outside when we go out to the yard. Now that he is bigger, he goes outside with my supervision but I still worry that he will go under the deck and be stuck!!

I live in a corner house so we don't really have a backyard per say. Just a small patio and no fence. I had to get them potty train asap for various reasons so the best solution I could come up with was the pee pads.

My intention was to train them on pee pads first so they won't make too much mess in the house and then transition them to going outside. I still have two pads out in a designated room because of Zoey. Her schedules changes and since I work, I can't accommedate to her changes. Besides, she's only 5 lbs so I don't want her holding it for too long.

I trained Cooper on the washable pads because I didn't want him going outside until he was fully vaccinated, and I knew that I was going back to work and didn't want him to have to hold it until I got home. He also potties outside, but the pads are a lifesaver and they wash up really nicely.
