Collection: Puppy Training

Puppy training pads can be a useful aid to housebreak young dogs. These absorbent mats offer an indoor place for puppies to relieve themselves. You can teach your pup to use the pads, creating a consistent toilet area. This is helpful, especially in the early stages of training. Puppy pads protect your flooring from urine and faeces. Accidents happen when housebreaking, so pads are useful.

Place the pad in a spot where your puppy can easily get to it. Ideal spots are away from sleeping and eating areas. After your puppy uses the pad, offer praise and a small treat. This reinforces good behaviour and encourages repeat use.

Once your puppy uses the pad often, move it closer to an outside door. Shift it gradually, a few inches each day, towards the exit. Eventually, move the pad outdoors to the area you want your dog to use long-term. This helps your puppy make the link between needing to go and going outside.

Training pads aren’t a complete solution for housebreaking. You still need to take your puppy outside regularly. Set times, like after waking up, eating, and playing, are ideal. Consistent outdoor trips are essential for full control. Pads serve as a tool to support, not replace, outdoor training.
