Much of the angst involved in toilet training your young pup is rooted in the fact that there's so much potential for things to go wrong. If a dog goes to the bathroom outdoors, it's one thing, but if they do it inside, something in your house is going to wind up ruined or at least very dirty. Our washable puppy pads make it easier to be more tolerant of these mistakes and keep training fun.

Puppies and older dogs share some important similarities with young children and elderly humans. It's harder for them to hold it when they really have to go to the bathroom, and sometimes they just can't make it outside in time. In other cases, frightening rain or thunderstorms can scare your dog into having an unexpected bowel movement. In all of these situations, it's important to remember that your dog isn't doing this because it doesn't love or respect you. It's just following its natural instincts, and it's up to you to either teach it new behaviors or modify your accommodations.

Potty training works better with a more loving approach. Although there are benefits to letting your dogs know they've done something wrong when they pee indoors, it's best to avoid that whole chain of events entirely. With washable puppy pads like those we sell, it's easier to get your dog in the spirit of keeping their excretions limited to a sole designated area. From there, you can make the step of transferring that area closer and closer to the door and eventually outside. This method of training works best because your puppy won't realize it's going on or get weirded out by the new routine.

One of the nicest things about our washable puppy pads is that they're good for the environment. Our eco-friendly products incorporate anti-microbial treatments that allow you to wash them over and over again without worrying about pathogen buildups or lingering odors. They're made using a three-layer pattern that allow them to absorb huge volumes of liquid and prevent any from reaching the floor or carpet, and they don't constrict your dog like diapers. At Sanidog USA, we know your dog is an important family member, so we ensure that our training products are made to keep it as comfortable as possible in your home.
