Let me tell you how wonderful my bread crate invention is. Both my Yorkies go in it and I finally don't have to constantly clean up from them walking off the whee whee pad. You can probably get a bread crate behind 7-eleven, Waldbaums or any food store. Did I say that.

In time, I might even start using newspaper to save some money. I pay 40.00 for 100 pads at my local pet store. Anyone purchase them online?

YorkiesRule · 03-24-2006, 05:45 AM

I buy a box of 100 for about $22.99. I say about because the price finally went up recently and I think it was $1.00 increase. The funny thing is that in the store, the same box is $32.99. So I wait for Petsmart to have the NO SHIPPING specials and I get 2 boxes for my house and 2 boxes for a friend (to make the minimum necessary for free shipping). The first couple of times there were several pads in the boxes that were less than perfect and I thought, 'hmmmm, that's why they're $10.00 cheaper than in the store'. But the last 4 boxes have been fine and I noticed that just about everything is a bit cheaper at Petsmart, ONLINE, than in the store. But again, you need a minimum order of about $75.00 for the free shipping. Hope this helps.

Hey I get the case of 100 wee wee pads from Jefferspets.com and it's only $23.99 and they don't charge a packing charge for that size order. I was going to get a 200 pad case from petedge.com but seeing as my order was under $70 they wanted to charge me $6.95 to process the order...jeeze.

Jeffers always has that price and the pads are not defective in any way. I just ordered two cases last night.

Happy Shopping.

A friend of mine on another chat uses the wizdog. She loves it. She did modify it. She has a tiny Yorkie so she got a piece of that no slip that goes under carpets. She got it at Bed Bath and Beyond and it's a softer rubber so she puts that on top of the wizdog. She said before since the puppy was so small he would get stuck in the holes in the wizdog. So now he can go on it and not get stuck and she can easily clean it up. I will see if I can find the picture of the contraption that she made.

I need to figure out something too. Lex will pee on the pad and sometimes off. Pooping is a hit or miss on the dang thing. House breaking so just so much fun...don't you all agree?

Lexi Rae · 03-24-2006, 08:01 AM

have to tell you, that the newspaper inside the wee pad holder is working just great for me... lexi seems to be doing just fantastic...its saves me
so much money and she hasnt missed since i did it that way. on the very
bottom of the tray i put a wee pad then newspaper on top to that..
it doesnt even seep through to the wee pad which is great..

My bread crate device that I made is working out beautifull!! Both dogs now use it and I never have any cleaning up to do if they miss the pad because they are not going to step out of the crate while doing there business. I'm tellin you guys, you au't to give it a try. I am going to start using newspaper to save some money also. Thats a great idea. Will let you know how that goes. I love all the wonderful ideas everyone shares here. Its awsome.

I will definitly take a picture to share with you. I will even take the pic with a clean whee whee pad in it. LOL

All kidding around, I will take a pic for you guys to see. I am loving life. I don't have to keep cleaning up the floor! keep an eye out. I will try to get it on site today.

Ok I need to figure out something. I find that Lex will go on the wee wee pad and tends to wander his behind around and pick a spot to pee as well. I have been taking him out constantly but somehow he will still sneak off and pee somewhere here and there. I use Nature's Miracle and clean after his accidents and after that I tend to mop the spot as well. Anyone have any suggestions for the clean up. Can it be that the Nature's miracle is not totally getting the cleaning done? You know when we first got him three weeks ago he went always on the pad and might poop off of it here and there. Now that he is settled in he seems to feel comfy to go nuts and do whatever..I am feeling a tad frustrated. Any suggestions?

OOOH sorry also looking forward to seeing the crate creation..

laney77348 · 03-25-2006, 08:11 PM

Ok, I am now trying to get the pic on the site but I am stupit when it comes to transferring picks so.....here goes. Oh, I also wanted to add that I went to the pet store and saw something similar to what I made. I like mine better because it is bigger and as I said...my Yorkies tend to walk as they do there business so mine is perfect for there needs.

And mine...no more cleaning floors!!

MelAnnDoll · 03-25-2006, 08:34 PM

so as it is, we have a pee pads in every room...and we're trying to gate off each room and always be in the same room with her, but she still sneaks off! and she does it so quickly! and of course, if you don't see the spot right then, once it dries you never see it!!

so, i'm wondering...is it better to just have one pee pad down and teach her to always go there for right now?

or would be bring the box to whatever room we are in?

we don't want to outdoor train her because it gets really cold here, but in may my parents will be babysitting for a week, and they are not going to do it if she's not totally PT!!!!

laney77348 · 03-25-2006, 08:54 PM

I didnt bring a whee whee pad in each room. What I did is....I confined Buddy to the area in which I will always leave the whee whee pad at. Now, when he runs around, he always goes to the same spot. In the very beginning, I had to have him confined in a really small spot in which he had no choice but to go on the pad....gradually I gave him more room and he still followed the pad to do his business. Now, no problem. Once or twice, I fogot to put a whee whee pad down and he still went in the same spot that I usually put the pad so I think territory also has something to do with it. I think that pads all over the house just makes it confusing to them..talking from experience from mine that is. How about other thoughts on pads all over the house? Good idea or not. Oh, by the way....hows everyone like the bread crate idea? If you double click on the pic, it will show it bigger for a better effect.

Bizzymammabee · 03-25-2006, 09:47 PM

I like your bread crate idea...I guess you can also get a soda case and use it the same way. I might just have to try that one..lol. Thanks.

I would only put down one wee wee pad. Too many and they think it's open season to go potty all over.
