Training & BehaviorWhat's better: outdoor potty training or pee pads for my dog?
Personally, I always recommend teaching a dog to potty outside if at all possible - I'm not a huge fan of pee pads, as this can lead to confusion for many dogs who may use the bathroom on other absorbent surfaces in the home such as rugs, towels, clothing on the floor, etc. Training the dog to go outside in the grass is much clearer and less confusing :)
