Getting Dog to Use Training Pads

I bought the wee wee spray at the pet store and sprayed it on the pads. Worked great.

When I first started using them Izzy shredded them. My kitchen looked like it snowed. Izzy now goes on newspaper when she can't go outside. Her crate is only used when I have to leave the house with out her. I have a gate that keeps her in the kitchen when necessary.

Sorry to tell you that puppy pads are not a good idea. They tell the pup that going in the house is ok, and that the house is also her toilet. Do you crate her at night? I think the bad news is you have to get her up every few hours around the clock till she is older and can hold it longer.Rule of thumb, take the dogs age and add 1. Example 4 months old she should last 5 hours or so. Adjust timing to your pup.

I have a mini Shih Tzu and I was wondering how can I get her to use the pads instead of taking her outside? I got her one that is called Delux training pads, they have a scent on them so that she will go on it. How can I train her to use the pads?

How do I get a 6 weeks old Stafe to use her training mats, as she's too young to go outside? She hasn't had her jabs yet.
