HELP finding the cheapest but effecient training pads Hello yorkie talk its been a while. im in desperate need of a large quantity of training pads for my 1 year old yorkie Dollar. wee wee pads seem to work well but with my financial situation dwindling, i bought some of the "cheaper" pads but they just leak right thru causing MASSIVE damage to my wood floors. ive been searching online and they have TOO many to choose from so i was hoping someone from the community would like to give their 2 cents and recommend where and what to buy. thanks a bunch, all comments are appreciated.:animal-pa |
Get washable ones! They don't leak and after the initial purchase their free to use over and over, just the cost of washing them. |
I'm a great believer in the washable ones too, Joey likes them better, they stay in place, and your helping to "save the planet." Go green! |
I've found the Out brand ones from Walmart to be the best. I believe they are $6 or 7 for 32. I bought some "pee pads" online that were actually hospital pads and once they peed on them once they were ruined. |

Why were they ruined? That's weird. Did you wash them? |

Oh, I thought you meant the reusable ones. I have tried the disposable hospital ones also. They were terrible! Nothing there to absorb the moisture. |

I plan on getting the washable ones too for my new puppy. One question if anyone can answer. :D Right now my puppy (still with breeder cause he is only 5 weeks old) is peeing on regular pee pads. Will the switch to the washable ones be to confusing for him or will he just automatcially start using them. I think Im going to buy a few this week and give one to the breeder for her to start using, so he is already use to to it. I think I just answered my own question, :rolleyes: but other opioins are welcome. ;) |
Mine aren't really cheap, but, in the long run, they come out cheaper, as you don't have to change them out as much. I go through drsfostersmith.com type in piddle pads..I get whichever ones are on sale, right now, it's the biodegradeable ones. My preference is the xtra that they have on their, as they really absorb well. I have bought the cheap ones in the past, but, in the long run, they have ended up costing me more, as I'm always changing them out.. |
I was buying the Jump start from Petsmart at 27.00 for 50 and that got to expensive with multiple dogs so I now use the OUT from Walmart which work fine and cost 6.97 for 32. I do use washable ones and place one disposable one on top since mine tend to wander when going and it offers extra protection. |
i buy mine from sam's club-adult incontinence pads. you get 120 pads for about $27. and while they're a little bit bigger than the normal sized pads, i find they hold just as well as the ones i buy from walmart, target, petco, etc. |
Our Walmart now has the Blue Ribbon Deluxe pads. You can get 100 for 23.00 |
thanks for the prompt response everyone. i will be stopping by walmart today to look for the OUT pads. also if anyone can recommend a washable pad that would be perfect. once again thanks to yorkietalk and especially the people who responded so fast. |
I got my washable pads from Little Bit in the above post. I absolutely love them. |

I personally use human pads. It is exactly twice the size of the pad holder, so I cut it and get 2 for one. It ended up more than twice cheaper than wee wee pads, which can be hard to find over here :( I have found the thick ones for not much more money :) When trying out different brands, I would "feel" the pads in the bag. You can easily tell if it's thick enough or not. If it was an option, I would definitely go for washable pads :) But it's not, and nobody sells them here, in fact no one really uses pads for their dogs. I was wondering if I can find a way to make it.. :D |
Arm & Hammer Pee pads for Rocky I swear by these ive been using them since i first got Rocky because a friend of mine recommended them to me. They are great he can pee on them up to 3 or 4 times and you cant smell the pee smell because of the arm and hammer that's built into the pad. I have only seen them at Target they have a 50pk for $13.99 or 80pk for $19.99 |
Go to EZ welp.com they are reclaimed pads i got the ones that were $3.00 and under i got 10 the first time and then 10 the second time and with in 6 months i have saved 300 dollars.. i just shake them put them in the washer with detergent and bleach and hot water and they are fine .. of course if something happes the puppys have the runs just rinse it off with the garden hose or what ever .. you will love them and the money you save is great.. good luck..:D |
I know this is probably a dumb questions, but are you doing wash then everyday with those? I would love to try them, as I currently use the disposable ones. Quote:

NO if you have only one baby and they are not real dirty i usally wash 3 or 4 at a time you will know when you need to take it up.. alot of times i will just take the poo of flush down the tolet and let them use it for a whole day you will only know how often.. but they are wonderful trust me saved my life.... :thumbup: |
Here is a website I found last nite (it must have been for you because I don't use pee pads ;) ) If the price is too high maybe you cold get someone to split the cost with you and you all split the pads I think its worth. Pee Pads For Cheap - Great For Puppy Potty Training Good Luck on your search. :animal-pa |
I've used these before and really liked them, more absorbent than the Arm & Hammer I purchased from Target Pee Pads For Cheap - Great For Puppy Potty Training |
I am a believer in the washable potty pads. This site has a large variety of washable potty pads - both brand new and re-claimed: Reclaimed Pads |

Rescue Me sells washable pee pads for $10 a piece plus $1 each for shipping. PM me if your interested and I can send you a picture. |
I know lots of YTers love washable.. and I have one myself for Alfie as our regular potty area... but he has had issues with the in side and out side pottying. So we have been buying throw aways as well just in case for another area in the house that he has decided he also likes to do his business...:rolleyes: Anyways, cheap is good so after spending like $20 on 15 pads from PetSmart we went to Target!! 55 pads (Arm and Hammer) for $13. |

I use "OUT" from wal mart. My girls each have their own pad. They use them 2-3X for pee. I have never had a leak. |
