| Potty Training; from pad to outside, suggestions? Hi there, just looking for some advise or opinions on re-potty training. We have trained our Yorkie (4.5 months old) to use pee-pads, and she has done pretty well with it. We did this mostly because our winters are really REALLY cold here in Manitoba (-40 and colder) and thought it would be really unfair to make a small puppy go outside in that cold all the time to potty train. We were thinking of re-training her in the spring to go outside. Has anyone ever tried to re-potty train, are we asking for trouble and just going to confuse her? Does anyone have any tips for making the transition? Thanks! |

| I started Peanut out using pads when he was little and then switched him to go outside. I've had no problems with this but I have a mini schnauzer that goes outdoors. He just started going outdoors when we would take them both for a walk and would just follow her. I don't know if he would use a pad again though as I prefer them to go outside. |
