Pet Parents Pawtect® Pads Washable Dog Pee Pads (2pack) of 18x24 Premium Pee Pads for Dogs, Waterproof Training Pads for Dogs & Reusable Dog Pee Pads! Whelping & Modern Puppy Pads!

We just adopted a puppy and have been struggling with potty training. She will go potty outside, but also just helps herself to all my rugs and mats throughout the house whenever she felt the urge. We laid down the paper pads but she only saw them as toys and destroyed them the second they were put on the ground. We had to pull up all our rugs because of all the pee pee accidents. I needed a solution to bridge the gap between no accidents and accidents inside that I can accept- which is when I found these. It took our pup about a week or two to really get the hang of it, but after I blotted up some of accidents with the mat so that it had her smell on it, she’s been pretty loyal to going on it. I’ve washed them a few times and they come out of the washing machine just like new. I’m air drying them to prevent shrinking or warping. So far I haven’t had any issues of leaking and it seems to hold a decent amount of urine. They do tend to smell after several accidents, but haven’t had residual odor after washing. I’m very happy with these, which is saving my floors and sanity during these young puppy days!

I DO NOT write reviews.... BUT....I do read a LOT of them before I make a purchase, SO....after reading the negative ones on here for these pads, I felt I needed to debunk those and agree with the company responses that they must have received defective ones (or possibly they ordered knockoffs by mistake). These are PAWFECT....get replacements and you will LOVE these! (I literally just ordered them yesterday after my research and I did not get anything free, although the price for a 2 pack is a steal, and hadn't even checked my email yet for the delivery confirmation or that email you always get from Amazon asking you to do a review the product...I'm just so happy that nothing said in those negative reviews even closely resembled what I received)Ok....The XS is just a little shorter than the doormat my older female dog was using at my front door almost every day in the wee hours of the morning before we got up to let her out....I did my research, these came up as TOP PICKS on several blogs. The price was also the lowest I found even for 1 mat and these came in a 2pk and free one day shipping with Prime. I set one out last night when they arrived....The top is very soft and she even laid on it like she does with the doormat so good sign already.... AND she had already used it when I got up this morning. It DID NOT roll off and leak onto the floor like some said, it DID NOT spill out on the floor when I picked it up(as others said)...it DID however soak it up like a diaper and I DID NOT smell anything, even when I bent down to pick it up...I could always smell the pee on the rubber backed doormat as soon as I walked in the room!The backing I can only describe as being like a very well made changing pad like what comes with an expensive diaper bag, smooth, sturdy but flexible, NOTHING like something that would shred or tear easily (like some commented), I took the one she peed on out back this morning to really test how much it can hold and I could not believe how much water I was able to put on it with the hose before the water and pee started to puddle up and flow out; this thing holds a CRAP TON of liquid and weighed a ton when soaking wet...even though I do not plan to leave it down once she has peed on it, if you have multiple dogs I would say you will be happy to find out how much this little pad soaks up! I do agree its not exactly slip proof if you're using on hard floors/surface, but as a doormat its perfect and stays put when I open and close the front door and I'll still have a place to dust feet since I will always have a clean one down during the day. My dog did pee right smack in the middle so I can't say much about those that had it leak over the edge and sit under the mat and stain the floor (except maybe check it daily and mop the floor instead of leaving a soiled mat down so long it stains your wood floor??) This thing held so much water when I went to hose it off I can't imaging how much pee there would have to be to cause a leak, so getting the right size and not leaving it down once its soiled and this is the best choice I could have made for sure. I love that its a 2 pack and the colors are neutral and don't have "doggy baby blanket" bones written all over it like most other brands I looked at. I am thrilled to have a simple effective solution to mopping up pee every morning! I just switched it out for the tan one and tossed the grey in a warm water wash...I will hang dry to extend the good sturdy waterproof backing. Thanks "Pet Parents" for the Pawfect Pads! ♥♥♥Happy dog mom over here in Texas!

Bought a pair of these 41"x41" whelping pads a year and nearly a month ago. My use: providing a "porch" outside an older rabbit's x-pen home in our kitchen. My furry friend was leaving many pee puddles in a wide arc around his pen, a new behavior. M-a-n-y puddles. While we figured out medical and environmental and emotional things, I hoped the pads would save on disposable paper towel waste and mopping. They DID! Handsomely. Even larger puddles, provided they weren't on the pad edges, were handily contained.The unexpected benefit of using these pee pads was that my boy, who has been losing both vision and hearing (he has the classic problems of a Holland Lop -- why, oh, why were they bred with floppy ears?) now could find his way more securely around the kitchen. He figured out that it was okay to pee on the pad, whose area gave him nice tactile guidance for his location. Dog owners in other reviews mentioned their pets understood what these pads were for. My rabbit, too. If you know bunnies, you know how spatially oriented they are. Gotta check all entrances and exits frequently, and maintain that mental map! As his vision has declined, he has made a habit of going back and forth to confirm his last sure location. These large pads are perfect for a reference point in his kitchen range.Combined with (1) meloxicam from the vet to make his movements easier, and (2) two halves of a Super Deluxe Palace Pet Bed (see USAknit online; they are fabulous) inside his pen and out, these pee pads have made a HUGE difference in his toileting habits and my workload. 98% of Bunny Man's puddles elsewhere in the kitchen have ceased. He happily uses the pad in the area in front of his pen as lounging area and latrine.SLIDING/FLATNESS. Given the rabbit's weight (roughly 5 pounds), and the type of backing on this pad, there are no issues with it shifting or sliding about. I've got one 41" edge tucked a few inches under the vinyl flooring rectangle that protects the kitchen floor from his pen bottom. Because the pad lies almost flat (just some expected curving upward of the serged edges) I can swing open the hinged door to the x-pen with minimal effort to clear it. If I need to kneel down and reach inside Bunny Man's pen to do something (always nice things in his territory!) I can just fold over the pad in a diagonal triangle if it's recently moist and I don't want my knees to smell like, well, you know.CLAWS. The fabric covering is very low-nap and the stitches securely sewn enough, that we've not had problems snagging nails -- except possibly once, when I hadn't kept his well-trimmed. He might have snagged a dew claw; not the fault of the pad. Because these were not made in the USA, when I initially ordered, I was a bit concerned about quality (sorry; I've just been burned repeatedly by lowest-bidder syndrome on every imaginable consumer product). If Pet Parents stays on top of that, and these remain consistently awesome, then you'll love these pads. Yeah, I could sell them. I have given some as gifts.CLEANING. No big deal. I brush off hay bits and hair, then gently fold the pad in thirds and wash in my machine in cool or lukewarm water. I swap out the previous pad, which I've left hanging on a clippy skirt hanger so it could air dry. No dryer for these! When Bunny was more incontinent and leaving more puddles in a wider radius, I had to do this twice a week or sometimes three. Now it's once a week. Still, after a year, both pads are still in great shape.A year ago, before I got these pads, I'll admit I was going through a LOT of paper towels. It was a pain to drag out the mop for every puddle. I'm writing this on May 1, 2020, so paper towels are exceedingly hard to find at grocery stores, and I don't want to venture out to buy a new mop head, either. I am so grateful to not need either!
