Just got a puppy
Any crate training or potty training recommendations? Seen a ton of stuff online and am trying it.
Re: Just got a puppy
I forget what they're officially called, but my wife pretty much potty trained our dog in her studio apartment with "pee pads". I think I've seen them everywhere pet stuff is sold, but it's just a square of diaper-like material to get the dog to get in the habit of going there to save the mess (then eventually move to getting them to go outside once they head for the pad.)

I saw them there and I might have to give them a try. We are crate traiining now but work a bit too much for it to be ideal.TG1996 wrote:I forget what they're officially called, but my wife pretty much potty trained our dog in her studio apartment with "pee pads".

Just make sure you keep an eye on him around your Korean neighbors.

"BG was relentless. It's like they know that a good first pass on the breakout from a defenseman will almost always result in an odd-man rush against them - but they go in anyway and dare you to make that pass. All three of their goals were just grit and effort. That's a team any fan can be proud to support...they give all they've got."

Please accept my apologies, FF. Just a ham-handed attempt at low-brow humor.
