RE: [Chihuahuas] Re: puppy Pad holder?
Yay! She isn't used to going outside! In the spring you should be able to get her used to going out in the yard and then if you need to do the puppy pad holder close to your door outside next year, it is instilling in her that she is supposed to go outside.

Probably not the best time to potty train a wee one. WHAT IS A PUPPY PAD HOLDER? Sent from Lynda's iPad On Nov 10, 2011, at 12:13 PM, Joan Croft joan_cr...@hotmail.com wrote: both of mine used puppy pads at first. I know I put Dolly outside to go potty, she didn't really learn to go out every time until I had my neighbor's dog visiting. Dolly was learning to go in and out with Mandy. Desi was my total nightmare. he would go outside be out there for a long time, and then would come in and potty wherever he pleased. finally, I would put him outside and close the door. I would watch through the living room window, and he would just be wandering around back and forth. after about 20 minutes he actually went off of the patio and went potty. I had to repeat that almost a week before he understood that he had to go potty when he was out there. Dolly learned from Mandy, Desi did not learn from dolly. Desi was a little chubby boy, so I couldn't do the routine treat after every time that he did right. when his weight finally got down to a healthy weight that is when I started giving him a treat when he came in after going potty. we do have puppy pads in the house, and they do use those at night or during the day if I'm sleeping. On cold and rainy days they also use the puppy pads. I have 1 of the puppy pad holders and I experimented 1 day when it was raining this past summer. I put it right outside the door in the corner of the patio. Dolly and Desi have used that puppy pad quite a few times. some people have taken the dog out on leashes in the yard to get them to go potty and understand that is where they are supposed to go. good luck, I hope that she picks it up really soon.

Potty training is going to be our biggest obstacle...everything else is falling into place quickly. My Liza took 4 or 5 days to housebreaking, Timmy about 3 months - but they didn't mind being outside-Charlotte says 'hate it'! I have puppy pads but really want to get her to be an outside potty. Charlotte is blind in one eye-a confirmed diagnosis hasn't been given as of yet-but she has no sight in her left eye.
