| Pee Pee Pads at Wal-mart Just thought I would tell, I got 32 pee pee pads at wal-mart for $6.82 I thought it was a good deal. I am still training Porscha and with the advice of another YTer I put down pads everywhere so she cant go wrong!! |

| I didn't know they sell poddy pads. Thanks for the info, Just some info for you. When I train my dogs, I keep them in a restricted area. Only on hard flooring. The pads are placed where they piddeled and by the doors. Just a few pads scattered around. The idea is to protect your flooring and at the sametime training them towards the door. The pads laid out should in due time be less and less on the floor. Also everyday lay the pads closer to the door. At the same time, every few hours the dog should be put out to do his business. The pads are there just incase. If you place them all over, the dog will get the idea they can poddy anywhere at any time. Good Luck

| Oh no she is confinded to the bathroom with all the pads, I am slowly taking one by one away until she understands to go on the pad. I am not training her to go outdoors so I have been taking her to the bathroom and sitting with her to train her to go there and during the day I put her open crate in there for her to be able to go. She has been doing good not going on the open floor and on the pads hopefully I will be able to cut it down to one pad and she will understand. Thank you for the advice I love this site!!! |

| If your looking for good wee wee pads, go to walgreens and buy the peoples bed pads. Yes it might be embarassing but they are so good its worth it. They are bigger and thicker. And they are cheaper too!! Sam's club also sells them!!!

| I also buy the pee pads at wal-mart for $6.82...My yorkie mostly goes potty inside on the pee pads, so I have to make sure that they are really absorbent. I've tried the pads that they sell at petsmart and other places, but my favorite ones are from wal-mart. |

| I know what you mean about the great deal at Wal-Mart. We always used to buy our piddle pads at PetsMart or PetCo and they were expensive. We spotted the Wal-mart pads when we were buying dog toys and have used them ever since. They are cheap and, in my opinion, work better than the expensive ones! |

| lots of people used the walmart pads. i've heard really good feedback about them, but i must say i also bought them and i was VERY DISAPPOINTED . out of 32 maybe 10 or 15 could be used. they tore apart trying to open them. i now use ped pads and they are very thick and so far no leaks. my only problem with them is there huge and i dont want to cut them b/c the cotton inside will show and lucky will go crazy trying to tear it up. but out of all the pads i've used wee wee from petco, walmart, arm and hammer from target ect..... ped pads are the best. maybe its better quality walmart pads in smaller cities not sure why mind were so bad.....

It really ticks me off when my Wal-Mart is out of the OUT brand. The ones I really love are the extra large deluxe over-sized, by OUT. I use them when I am whelping and the mom is confined to the pin with babies. All of my Yorkies are trained to pee-pads, they are a must on rainy days.

| Yes, I also use the potty pads from WalMart. They work great & are priced reasonably. I've been using them for over a year now. The ones from Petsmart that come in the box of 100 were really bad quality. I didn't like them at all.

| I bought a bunch of these pads at Walmart also but haven't been able to try them out yet. I wanted to also say that Target has arm and hammer brand peepee puppy pads but they are a bit more expensive. 20 bucks gives you 80 of them but I personally think they are way better than the big 100 economy size pack you can get at Petsmart. They soak up pretty well also. If you watch out for sales, you might be able to get a 50 pack for 10 bucks. Hopefully the walmart ones are just as good. |
