| Pee Pads Our dog wasn't housebroken when we got her at 7 months and we're working on it!!!! I tried pee pads, but she just wanted to play with them, sleep on them or chew them to bits!!!! Any ideas????? We keep taking her outside and she does very well and then she'll pee on a mat inside!!! She's 11 months now and still has accidents in the house....I guess it'll be an ongoing thing. |

| Don't give up, be patient it will take time, I keep Pheobe on her playpen cover with the pee-pads, and little by little i remove them and now she only use one pad no playpen anymore because she is 100% potty train, but before, she was not allow at the house by herself I always keep the eagle eye on her, and she had a accident i told her nono, and show her the pad, and when she use the pad I told her good girl, she finally figure it out , and also I will use one word go potty (my hubby too) that way she will not get confused, she potty outside too and i use the same words.It work for us |

| I'm having the same issue. The pee pads are more like toys to them. They tear them up or pull them around the rooms. I need a way to anchor them to the floor. I don't want to tape them - that looks like fun to them too!

Donating YT 500 Club Member | Get a couple bricks or partial bricks and put them in the middle to hold it down. That's what we have on Ozzie's papers (he never would use pee pads) and it gives him something to aim at! Good luck. It takes a lot of patience to get these little guys clear on what is OK to potty on and what isn't. And there will still likely be accidents regardless. |

| Pee Pads We use them and they work great. When they were new to them, we used some clear packing tape to tape them down. Eventually they stopped trying to tear them up. |

| i use wee pad holders, they have a plastic tray on the bottom so no pee seeps through to the floor.. the whole pad is surrounded by this tray and would be harder for your puppy to drag around the house
