Also water and white vinegar work - of course keep soaking up with paper towels until towels are clean and then then sprinkle with baking powder and vacuum when dry. this also works great on diarrhea accidents. I found this on line when Abbey had an accident on my white area rug. you could not even tell where the accident was and no smell. Nan and the girls

I like the idea of getting a pee pad holder; might switch to that. I have a big packet of unused pads in the cupboard. I noticed you can get them fairly cheap at Costco too. I never thought about the cleaning of the artificial grass as really having to clean three pieces which, I agree, doesn't sound too appealing. And I don't want it to be stinky! Now we've just let them start being in the whole kitchen instead of just half of it, basically, and it makes them really happy to be with us while we're cooking, washing dishes, etc., and gives them more room. However, they just pooped on the middle of the linoleum for the second time in two days! Do they need to go back to the smaller space? I really hate that idea, though, for various reasons. Could we spray some bitter stuff there in addition to the odor remover stuff? Well, it's my fault for wanting to get puppies and experience the whole thing! haha Take care, Annette & family with Paco & Pixie (Seattle)
