Ok we have switched Wyatt from the wee-wee pads to the litter box...but it dont like it too much....my hubby said it would be better...but i dont know...what do you guys think

I mean where we stay they dont allow dogs but everyone has them...and most of us use wee-wee pads...but they are so darn messy

...so we tried something new.....but he chews the little pellets and wont really use it

....i know taking him outside to use it would be best..but i can do that...so what do you think?? Do any of you YTers us the litter box?? Please let me know...i need help in choosing what is best!

Thanks in advance!

I use a litter box for both of mine. I used to use the litter in there for a long time but just recently switched to washable pee-pads. They work great and are SUPER absorbent! I got mine at dog.com and just use them in a doggy litter pan and I throw them in the wash at night.
Hope this helps.

I bought a litter pan last week and my dogs just thought it was a new treat to spread all over the house and munch on. I didnt know if those pellets were harmful if ingested so I got rid of it. When I put the pee pads out for them they just rip them to shreds. I am at a loss as to how to train them. I have several and I cant keep an eye on all of them to watch their every more and I work during the day. My husband is home with them during the day but he sleeps for part of that because he works at night. I wonder if there is a way to train them when they already smell it in the carpet. I am thinking the only thing to do it rip it all out and try hard wood floors something. I havent seen that grassy looking pad. Maybe I will have to give that a try. I get tired of shampooing the carpets once a week.
