Are pee pads a better way to train small dogs? Serious question.
With our puppies, we would just dedicate two months to taking them outside (always to the same spot) every 15 minutes, eventually working up to every half hour and then every hour at three months. They were fully trained at 16 weeks. We never used pee pads, and we crated at night and when going out during the day.
Our breeder told us not to get them up in the middle of the night. They would learn fast.
But those were goldens. I don't know about little dogs. Maybe you could not get them outside in time if you see an accident happening?
How do you move from pee pads to outside training?
Good luck with Jasper. As they say, this too shall pass...er, be over with.
