I bought this yesterday and I was so happy I did! It was great for my dog it’s easy to dispose

I've been using these for about 6 months for a foster fail Chiweenie with trauma from a hoarding case who was only trained to use pads (we are working on outside pottying with the help of my 3 other dogs. I noticed the bottoms are extremely fragile and can easily be torn just pulling them out of the package, making them unusable if torn bc wheb the dog pees on them it will leak through the tear. They must have received complaints bc now PetCo has a "improved performance" version that comes in a heavy duty cardboard box vs. Plastic packaging. Here's the problem: they thinned out the cotton pad itself so that it isn't as absorbent while they did make the blue plastic bottom more durable. It's like they tried to keep the price low and the only way they could make the bottom less fragile was to reduce the absorbency and this defeats the purpose too! We need it to be absorbent AND leakproof. I'd rather pay a few dollars more for this so probably will be switching brands. I think it's a waste to have these come in a box that now I have to drag to the dumpster every couple of weeks, couldn't they have kept the plastic wrap instead of paying for a pretty box that gets thrown out and used that money to make the actual performance better? Also the new ones are stuck together and you have to take extra time carefully peeling them apart. These are not better. I actually bought the old ones yesterday at the back of the rack and I'll just be careful not to tear them. Frustrated and disappointed. Also I have photos but your system isn't allowing me to add them

The worst puppy pads ever and very dangerous. It says leak proof, IT IS NOT!!!! I have to put the pads in front of the toilet because that's where this crazy dog goes. Well, going into the bathroom in the middle of the night, I step onto the pad and because it is NOT leakproof, I slid into the wall and sprang my ankle. When I pick these up to throw away, the floor is soaking wet with her pee.
