Is the pee pad left down all the time? If a young pup the pee pad should be readily accessable not down the hall thru the door. You put her there, does that mean you carried her? If so she may not know how to get there by herself. Walk her on a leash to her potty spot. Feeding a pup makes them potty so make sure you walk her to her spot after meals, naps and playtime.

From: JelikoCats <[email protected]> To: [email protected] CC: OK just throwing this out there. I realized this morning that I have potty training issues with Piper. OK not that I am having issues potty training her but perhaps WHY there are issues. I noticed that when I put her near the wee wee pad in the morning when I know she has to pee, she runs a lap, goes to the wee week pad and then uses it. This morning when I put her by the wee wee pad, she pooped right away. I praised her, cleaned it up and went into the kitchen to start breakfast. I noticed she followed me and then peed on the kitchen floor. I also noticed that after I gave her breakfast, she followed me into the living room to poop. Is it possible she wont eliminate without being in the same room with me? Could she have a minor form of separation anxiety. Or is this just a doggie potty training situation.? Thanks Janine .......it is What it is......
