Pee Pads....

[sillysally]

Since the prednizone makes dogs have to pee more, and DH and I work all day, we were thinking that when we put Sally on it we will put out some pee pads for her. She currently stays loose in our bedroom while we are at work and I don't want to put them in there (carpet), but our bedroom opens up to a sun room with linoleum that we could put the pee pads down in.

We never used any kind of papers or pee pads when potty training Sally the first time. Is there training we need to with her or will she just know to use them if she has to pee from the scent that is in them (someone told me they have a smell that attracts dogs)?

Ya, some of them have a scent on them that attracts dogs to pee there. so most dogs just KNOW to go there because its the best smelling place.

as for normal paper training, like newspaper, its easier to start out with newspaper EVERYWHERE, and then slowly decrease the size of the covered area until you have just 1 sheet or w/e.

if shes used to only oging outside you will need to retrain her by using the pads outside with her too...encorage her to pee on them outside...
that way when shes inside with them and needs to go shell know "oh well i get priased if i pee on that white thing"

If you could confine her to that area that would help. You can put the pee pads in that area on the linoleum and work with her a few times to see if she understands why they are there. Being fully house trained she will likely be reluctant to pee in the house.
The next time she has to pee take her to the pad. You will probably need to do this several times.

Good luck.
