These work extremely well. They do not leak on the bottom at all, and they are absorbent so that there is not a mess. I wash them on the gentle cycle and dry them on a low heat. Wish I had found them long ago. They sell a larger size in the store, which is the size I have. Don't see that size online.

These were on sale in the store so I thought I'd give them a try & I'm so glad I did. Our younger dachshund liked to chew and tear apart the disposable pads but he leaves these alone and only goes to them if he needs to relieve himself when we aren't home. It's nice to know we can leave the dogs for a few hours and not find a mess (torn pad or otherwise) when we get home. They are well worth the money and wash beautifully. I usually don't put them in the dryer, I put them on drying bars instead. Be sure not to use fabric softener.

This is my 3rd order of these pads, they are a product that I can totally support. We have 3 pads scattered about the house at all times for our little gal, no accidents ever. They wash and dry beautifully, I dry them on a low heat for only 20 min. The only extra thing I had to do was cut the labels off, our Bella found them irresistible! If you need a dependable product this is it.

There are multiple dogs in the household. They know they can go outside to do their business, but when it rains - not a chance. They are left home alone during the day and often into the evening so we can't make them go out even though it's raining. These do provide coverage and the "odor eater" does work! The pads are still new so I can't speak for longtime wear, but the dogs have already gotten accustomed to them so a YAY from our household. Our only "wish" is that there was a larger size! We compensated with getting more pads-two out and two in laundry!

I always used to use the disposable pads until I found these. My dog actually uses these better than the disposables and they are a great saver for me, especially in the winter when I cannot take my dog out due to being handicapped. The new ones that I just purchased are really nice and love the size of them plus they were able to be ordered in a pack of 4. They have washed up very nicely and held their shape well. These work great for our situation and it is always great when we can help the environment.

We have been using this brand of mats for about 7 years and they work better than the economical plastic ones. The only hassle is that they have to be washed (well for us anyway). However, if you average out what you spend on the plastic ones in one year these definitely save you money in the end.

good producut - but small size

Great for enviromental reasons - but too small to use
Size - 20 x 27
I have a cocker spaniel and Golden Doodle.
Pooch pads does come in bigger sizes - not on the petco site.
Product states it is good for 300 washes - so imagine the savings over the disposable paper sheets .
Alos the savings to our enviroment and our landfills - and I am not a big enviromental nut either .

We used to buy the disposable weewee pad for our 3-month old puppy. He destroys them easily and eats the cottons and plastics from the pad. We don't have this problem with the reusable PoochPads. It's very easy to clean and wash.

I have always used paper"training" pads, but after 2 weeks of these poochpads, i can't see myself going back to the disposables under normal circumstances. I love these, finally, no more urine on my hardwood floors when my pup stands too close to the edge! i haven't had that happen once since i got these. Also, absorbs odor MUCH better than disposable pads. And the cost savings is a great plus as well. I usually buy disposables super cheap at off-market stores, or on sale, around $30-$35/150, which means it'll cost the same over the course of one year as 6 of these pooch pads, but since each pad would last 1 year if you used it and washed it daily, 6 pads used evenly would last 6 years. Wow, that's a better savings than I thought! Get these, you will NOT be disappointed. The medium is perfect for my long bodied 8lb pup.

Love these pads. They are great and wash well. I have not put them in the dryer yet. They dry over night just draped over the shower rod. I put down two each day and take up each evening and put down two clean ones. Solid waste is picked up as it happens. I have these in the tray from a large crate. I would not put them on carpet. I am not sure they would not leak through if you are using them for a larger dog. I have a 12 pound six month old puppy. He is house trained but he always comes in wet from the snow. These make potty time easier and less work for us adults in the home.

I was very hopeful about this product because of the many positive reviews. My puppy didn't really like using this but I understand because dogs all have their own preferences (the same as with treats or toys, etc.) But my '3 paws' score is because the surface didn't really stay dry after use as many reviewers have pointed out. If my puppy would have stepped on the used area then walked on the bare floor, her paws will leave urine paw tracks. Or maybe I misinterpreted the reviews thinking that the surface material actually 'absorbs and traps' the wetness inside the pad layers. Maybe the reviewers meant that the surface felt dry but after the wetness has dried up as well.

so-so product, there is leakage/product fraying

I bought these to replace the disposable wee-wee pads my dog normally uses. My original thught was that if these worked as claimed in the ad, I would stop using disposables and use these. That is NOT going to happen.
My dog immediately went over and used the pad, and it seemed to be working great. I lef the pad down, because it was a small amount of urine, and went to fix lunch. After lunch, when I went to replace the pad, (same amount of urine, he had been out in the yard since the first use) I noticed the floor underneath the pad was damp with urine.
The dog that used this is a chihuahua, so it was not a large amount of urine.
In adition, although I followed the labels laundering instructions exactly, after one cleaning they are faded/ fraying at the edges.
As it goes, I will be sticking with the disposable pads. They absorb more and I don't have to worry about them falling apart.

Poochpads had the logos all over and my dog was confused. She thought is was carpet or some other decorative thing. If it was plain white and looked like a wee wee pad she would have used it.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
