I take all of mine outside to potty, but this winter, I was just flat out to lazy and too cold to try to train my pup Cayenne to go outside, so I trained her to a potty pad, and she did great. But, as she got older, she started wanting to go out with the bigger chis when they went out and since she was growing up, I allowed her too, lol. She now does great outside, but will still occasionally use the potty pad inside. But, it is kinda funny....although this method may seem confusing, she is actually now the best trained one I have. The other's give me marking trouble, and Dinah is horrible about getting BESIDE the potty pad, but Cayenne hits the pad every time with no accidents. Now, if I can just convince her to LEAVE it on the pad and not bring it to my bed!!!! Grrrrrrr, lol Marsha ----- Original Message ----- From: Emi-Mail To: Chihuahuas@yahoogroups.com Sent: Sunday, April 15, 2007 5:11 PM Subject: [Chihuahuas] Can they be trained both use a puddle pad and also potty outside Is it too confusing to train using a puddle pad and also going outside to potty? I am afraid I may have confused our newest member by starting to puddle pad train her but I also sometimes take her outside too. She is 5 months old. Thanks for your help Emi
