Listen Later

Indoor pads (or wee-wee pads) have a purpose but house training should not be one of them.
Indoor pads are one of those products that seem like a good idea and great tool to make house training easier but in the long run it does anything but.
Not only does it add more work in the long run but it is possible your pup may never get fully housetrained.  
In this episode, I talk about why I strongly discourage the use of indoor pads while housetraining.
If your intention is to eventually teach your puppy to only go outside these pads can be detrimental to this training.
If you plan to use indoor pads indefinitely, I give you a few reasons why that may not be a great idea either.
