Awesome Pad
Date: November 4, 2009
"Saved the floor. Washes up like new. Great for my little Shi Tzu that won't get his feet wet. Much better than the disposable pads. When he comes off the pad, it's already absorbed and his paws stay clean. He's little, so he can use it a few times on the medium sized pad before I have to pick it up. A must have for fall, winter, and spring."

big help for feeble Peke
Date: October 30, 2009
"My beloved 15 year old Peke is very frail and unable to go up and down stairs to go outside. This means I have to carry him and he is still pretty heavy and it causes him pain when he is picked up. I bought the pooch pads out of desperation, since I was not too sucessful at "catching" him before he tinkled wherever he stood. The pads are super absorbent. I wash them every other day ( keep one in use while washing the other) I was pleasantly surprised at how well they wash. Definately worth the money as it helps us both."

Easily Adapted
Date: September 13, 2009
"My 4 year old Shih Tzu was using the disposable pads and started using the Reusable Pads easily. He will use it 2-3 times before I need to replace it. If it was less expensive I would definitely buy more so I wouldn't have to constantly be washing them. In the long run I feel it is a 'greener' option than the disposable pads. I also wish Petco sold these reusable pads in their stores."

Life Saver and Floor Saver!
Date: July 9, 2009
"Forget the disposables! I got one of these for my Toy Poodle several years ago and it was the best thing I ever purchased! She sleeps in my room during the night and I have the pad on the floor for her to use if the need arises, which it does, of course! Little dog = little bladder! Saves me from having to get up in the middle of the night to take her outside and also saves my carpet! Love it!"

Fantastic
Date: February 11, 2009
"I have never liked a product as much as I like these pads. They WORK. My Shih Tzu had puppies and all five of them used these from their first trip out of the whelping box. My puppy is now 4 months old and has NEVER had an accident. Unbelievable!"

"Hi! My name is Sami!! When I was a puppy the vet told my Mom that she should try and litter train me because I might hate Wisconsin winter and not go outside. I was (news) paper trained and my mommy didn't want to use that and she didn't want to spend a lot of money on wee wee pads that were thin and stinky. She tried litter but I hated the way it felt on my little Yorkie feet. Then she found these!! She loves them and we have a couple. She just throws them in the wash. I never have to wake Mommy to go potty at night! I am so happy and so is she!!"

money well spent
Date: January 24, 2009
"This is the best pet product I've ever purchased. It does everything it claims to. My 5 yr old min pin sometimes has an accident during the night, always right in front of the door. I placed one of these where she goes and now don't have to wash the throw rug every time she goes. It is so absorbent, there is no leaking and no odor even if I don't wash it for a few days. I wish I'd known about these when she was a puppy. They are so much better than the paper diaper-like training pads I used. They can't be shredded and they last and last which is better for my wallet and the environment. I highly recommend these to anyone who has a puppy in training or an adult dog who sometimes has an accident. They would also work well for those who choose to teach their dogs to go indoors - they are so much less messy and less expensive than a doggy litterbox. They even come in large dog sizes (up to 4x4) for the older incontinent dog."

Amazing
Date: August 2, 2008
"Although many reviewers have given the Pooch Pads glowing recommendations, I was still a little skeptical. As soon as I put the pad down my puppy used it. Unbelievable. He has continued to use it. The Pooch pads are everything the reviewers claim. It is easy to use, easy to wash and durable. After witnessing how effective it is I immediately drove to my nearest pet store to purchase another pad. The Pooch Pad is a great product."

Wonderful product
Date: July 17, 2008
"Purchased these for our yorkie-maltese puppy. She has a tendency to shred her wee pads and these solved that problem. No matter how hard she tries she can't shred them (and she tries over and over and over).
They have held up to the bi-weekly washing with hot water and detergent very well.
Put them on a wee pad holder (you have to fold them to fit but worth it) as they do tend to be wet through
the bottom and unless you have the pad on tile your carpeting would be damp wet too.
Only thing I would change is to have them sized for wee pad holder or company to make a wee pad holder that they fit on securely.
I plan on buying more in future to be able to wash 1 time a week plus to accomodate for her growing and the pad needing to be changed more often.

Awesome Product!
Date: April 20, 2008
"I bought 7 of these for my little pug, Jazzy. She took to them right away. We'd been using the disposable ones, but she shredded them daily. These are thick, absorbent, and durable. Best of all, she can't chew them up. She tried the first day to scratch it through, but she gave up. I still have to use a puppy pad holder to keep it in place, but I like having that extra layer of plastic between the pad and my floor anyway. So far, the pads have held up to repeated washings (with bleach I might add). I've been using them about 3 months now and wouldn't trade anything for them."

Best product ever
Date: February 20, 2008
"I have a Dachshund that I have trained to go to a litter box since when live in an apartment. This was the best thing ever. I purchase 2 of them and it so easy to just throw in the washer and there is no odor compared to the litter sand. He hasn't had any mistakes since I placed this , with the litter if it was a little smelly he wouldn't go. Plus it save me money and no mess"

better than paper
Date: February 9, 2008
"these might be a bit pricey.. but our dog just tears up the paper puppy pads. This is a sturdy pad that can be rewashed.
Make sure you get at least two so that you can always have a clean one on hand.
