washable or throw away? I know this question has been asked and answered quite a few times, but I can't find the thread. I have been buying disposable pee pads, but now that I have made up my mind to only use the pads, I think I need to buy the washable ones. Does any one have any experience with these? |
That is all I use. I started out using disposables and would sometimes come home to find them in shreds. I only use the washables now. It is a lot cheaper in the long run and my two seem like them better too, hardly any accidents since switching. |
I changed over to washables when I realized what horrible affects the disposables were having on our environment. I bought washables from a YT member who makes them with different fabric coverings. They last forever! If you would like her name, just pm me and I can get it to you. |

We use both, but personally I prefer washable. Once I stock up, that will be all I will eventually use. |
I use disposables over the washables. But it is getting expensive with 3 now using them. |
Bella also uses the disposables over the washables. And if Mommie forgets to put another disposable down after throwing away the yucky used one(which I HAVE done):rolleyes:.......she dosen't get in trouble!! It's ok to use the wasable.;) |
We use the disposable pads on top of the washables so that the pee doesn't go through the carpet & hardwood floor. |
I use the washable.... Love 'em!! ;) |
I bought washable ones about almost 4 years ago and they wash/dry great!! I got mine from piddlepads.com and have ordered several times - lots of options and sizes. I add oxyclean to the wash....and that really helps. |
I prefer the disposable pads...its just easier for my life style but I sell the washable pads along with disposable pads on my website Puppy Potty Training - Dog Pee Pads - www.NewPuppyPads.com Let me know if I can help you out :) |
I use washable pads. |
I use washable pads. (waterproof crib liners) |
washable? Quote:
brilliant!!!!! I've been using disposables for 3 years and had never thought of washable or heard of them. I will check it out So you get a diaper pale thing set up to hold them until wash day? |
We use washables and sell them. Love them. |
I use the washable pads from Personally Paws. They are much more absorbent than disposables and much cheaper. I keep the wet ones in a diaper pail. Washable Puppy Pads Washable Puppy Pads - PersonallyPaws |
I use washable pads and love them. For the most part my girls go outside but Lindi on occasion still uses the washable pads. ;) |
I have to ask So if the washable colored fabric pads look like area rugs, what is stopping my dog from deciding that ALL the area rugs are good to pee on? The paper pee pads have a scent to attract him, do you apply the spray on training scent? |
They will pee on your rugs, so i stopped using them |
I can see it now Yeah I can see Rocky, figuring this out in his little head...... he blinks, and thinks.... hummmm just like the rug in moms room. Athough I'm going to try North Shore supply pads designed for hospital beds. They guarantee 200 washings. I'll use the 30 x 36 as the under layer. Although every effort is made sometimes his little tushy end up off the side of the pad. |
If you keep them in designated spots, they pee on their pads and not rugs. It is the same for plastic pee pads. I trained mine to go in their spots but I can see how an untrained dog with pads all over the house might have a problem. We have area rugs all over and have no issues. |
I use both.I put disposals on top of washables. You are correct about rugs. They don't know the difference w/ small rugs, they will use them. |
I love the washables. They soak up the wee-wee much better and are super easy to wash and dry. I put 2 in her Xpen (over hardwood floors) and she uses one of the pads all the time. I started off using the disposables but found myself going through them so fast. My new puppy transitioned to using the washables right away. I also have potty park but since my puppy has a broken leg I haven't been able to train her on that (its about 4 inches off the ground and I'm afraid she's going to jump off). The washables are a great! |
I am using the disposable ones but am planning on switching soon to washable ones. |
Thanks for all the feedback. I have ordered the washable ones and can't wait to get them. Hope my babies will be as excited as I am..... |
