Is there anything that attracts the dog to this pad? My dog tears up the disposable ones and I'm still having a hard time training him.

No, the pad is not treated with anything that would attract a dog to it. But a dog will not tear these apart like the disposables. I would also add that there's nothing wrong with placing these in a washing machine: They are highly washable and very cost effective. Plus, CLOTH baby diapers are coming back as the latest and greatest GREEN thing. As an aside, I would say that housebreaking takes 1) patience, and 2) over the years I've had the best luck with crate training (5 out of 7 dogs). So, I would suggest you read an article on crate training.

No. These are strictly absorption pads to catch accidents, handle puppies while parents are away. Unscented. Very useful but not designed to indoor potty train dogs.

They are not treated and not sure meant for training. They are great for rug etc protection and are washable. Great in RV's

Yes. My dogs shredded disposable pads. And I love these wheel ping pads. And I wash it a lot and it works great. My dogs have not even tried to chew it at all. I'm thrilled with this product.

I'm not sure what the Pawz are made from, but I believe some other reviews mention them tearing, so you might want to look at that. Plus, you need to consider how long your dog's nails are--will they either push through the Pawz, be felt through the Pawz, or will it be uncomfortable for your dog? I really can't answer these questions but you might find some answers in other reviews, or buy a set and experiment. Hope all goes well for you at Day Care!

I use then for two small dogs - a Chihuahua and a Pommy. Have not had any problem with tearing or leakage. Of course the pad needs to be changed regularly, daily actually, otherwise there would be a problem. But when used normally they are absolutely fine.

Our first pup had no interest in using them. He was pretty stubborn. We got our second pup (female) in Jan & it was single digit to below 0 temps. We put the potty pads down & the tiny little girl used them! � Eventually big brother started hiking his leg where she had gone. So a 10 wk old pup taught an almost year old how it was done. We need bigger ones so when it's too cold in the mornings, maybe he'll hit a spot that will hold it all! The little gal pup is a year old now & 2/3 his size but still leaves a tiny spot right in the middle. Warning: Don't leave white towels on the floor. Lol Our first pup had no interest in using them.

Hi! My male dog did the same thing. He would stand on the pad, but then he would lift his leg and spray down the wall and make a mess or he would stand at the edge and pee on the curb. I took the actual holder of the pad off. I laid a tarp under the pad to protect the carpet. That seemed to work. Here is something else you might want to look at...it is expensive, but I am sure you can sort of make your own "aiming" wall for your pup. http://www.amazon.com/Wee-Wee-Pad-On-Target-Trainer/dp/B00HFEX7V8/ref=sr_1_1?s=pet-supplies&ie=UTF8&qid=1389982385&sr=1-1&keywords=training+pad+wall+guard You can also try leaving the pad edge on, but putting something on it for him to aim for like a little fire hydrant. I would imagine it being gross to clean, but if your little guy is looking for a target, it might work, too. http://www.amazon.com/Nothing-Like-Designs-Scent-Attract-Hydrant/dp/B00176EZFW/ref=sr_1_1?s=pet-supplies&ie=UTF8&qid=1389982785&sr=1-1&keywords=fire+hydrant+for+dogs+to+pee+on. Eventually, he will be going outside to do his business, so hopefully, this is something you only have to deal with for a little while. Good luck with your little guy.

These are the best training pads ever..dogs goes right to the pad..dog can go on it 4-5 times without it going through and there's no odor..I have tried all kinds of pads and these are by far the best.. the price is right for 100 pads..

Hi, I own the larger size already and found it withstands my Tibetan Terrier's scratching and habit of pulling on it. Like most I think they could had installed a better zipper and added more stitching along the fabric and zipper. But I also want you to know that the foam is superior to any I have bought at pet stores or other internet stores. My dog has hip dysplasia and he always picks laying on this pad. I'm buying this smaller version so I can put it on top of his larger pad so he can get into his recliner more easily.

I can't imagine what to do! My pug has loved it from the beginning. We had to replace it several times because it's torn up. She takes all her toys in there and hides things she's not supposed to have in there. Maybe just give him time and he'll get used to it...?

I have had issues when the dogs are playing and run over or into the pads. In that situation the pads slide or get bunched up. But normally the pads are large and heavy enough that they stay put. There is no sticky material or non-slip material on the pads.

I have a toy poodle puppy and he has already taken a sizeable chunk out on one Kong...he only gets the new one with a treat and as soon as the treat is eaten the Kong it's put up...I'd be wary when making a purchase ...possible that the really big ones are stronger?

It seems to stay on my dog. In fact, it is the only diaper that I have found that she can't or doesn't wiggle out of. I had no luck with baby disposable diapers at all. And I have a supply of doggie throw-aways that I had no success with either. I have no problem washing them I put them a basin with detergent, swish them well and then put them in my washing machine with the velcro closed and they wash well.

My dog used to do this with her previous pad holder, however after some consistent scolding she stopped. As for if this is any better about keeping the pads in place I am unsure.

We used half a Depends pad inside ours. Probably best to have a second one on hand. Might wait till you see if it works for you and your dog.

No only change the pad once a day . I have two holders and I change th both everyday. Use Out Go Here attractant and you puppy will go to the pad. I only spray once in the center of the pad. Good luck.
