Best Dog Training Tampa (Jan 2023 Update)

I liked the idea of a collar with vibration and sound versus shock or static. Didn't want to hurt my dog, just wanted to get his attention. The vibration works the best on mine, he learned within a day or two that when I called his name, I wanted him to come to me. In fact, it worked so well that I no longer need the collar for the negative behavior he displayed when I first bought it. And that's a darned good thing because an updated to the app in late April this year (changed from one app to another, forced not by choice) has rendered the collar worthless. The app itself is impossible to connect to the collar 99% of the time. If I was buying a collar again, I'd buy the same collar but would NOT opt for the phone app. I'd get it with a remote. The collar works, you won't hurt your pup, (don't use the static!) and the end result is the exclusion of negative behavior. Just be sure you don't get the one with the phone app.Mimi2Six

I literally just bought this yesterday! It is such a waste of money. The fact that it disconnects so much, and takes forever to reconnect to the collar is a terrible feature. How are you supposed to train a dog when you spend more time “connecting” to the collar. What a waste of $94. Would love to get my money back or have a collar that actually does what it’s intended to do.Terrible collar

I’ve always been hesitant because I always thought that the smart colors shock the dog but I do enjoy the vibration aspect of it because it’s not harmful to my baby. It’s helping me control behaviors like staying off of the furniture and not pulling on the leash and within the short time we’ve use it I can already see you a little bit of improvement on his behavior in these areas. He will walk next to the couch but will not get on it he’ll lay in front of it which is what we wanted. And he’s also stopped tugging at the leash on walks. I am definitely Happy with this product. I also like that you can control the level of the vibration on the collar. So what we did was we gradually increase the intensity of the vibration until we knew that he could fill it we know that it would probably be a pretty high because he does have thick for him but it startles him it doesn’t it doesn’t hurt him and that’s what’s most important. I would definitely recommend this product to anyone who’s wanting to train their dogs in the humane way with physical reinforcement without harming their pet.Lorielnj

I buy at least two bags every week for my 19 year old Jack Russell. Target raised the price $5 back in July, then it went back to $22.99. The product is perfect for my elderly pet, but not my wallet. I don’t understand the drastic $5 hikes. I could see $1-$2 realistically, but a $5 increase is the difference of buying a meal for some families who are just trying to keep their pets comfortable. If you are going to raise the price so fast, at least provide warning or a buy x get one free or % off option.Kim

I was placing these under my senior cat’s kitty litter box. It saved me a lot of cleanup and helped my senior cat and myself from being upset at the times he missed.BB

I foster 2 to 6 puppies at a time and these are a must have. I’ve tried a lot of pads and these are by far the best. Please put them back in the store. Xx large are perfect Great pricingBev

We absolutely ADORE this product for our dog! She is a mixed breed whose dominant behaviours reflect her Australian Cattle Dog DNA, and when she gets fixated on something (our cat, our food, us) this Pet Correcter is the only thing we've found that can bring her out of the fixation. We tried the coins in a can, the clicker, a whistle, other devices, and this is the one to which she responds every time. We love that it's not harmful, it hasn't caused her any kind of startle or nervous behaviours upon hearing the sound, and it has enabled us to use verbal 'hisses' when we don't have it at hand to break her fixation. We love it, and so glad Petco carries it in the larger size!Cerebreality

So I bought this today , mostly out of because my nerves are gone from a dog I have that barks at EVERYTHING. I have other dogs and if they even move to change their laying position or I get up to go into other room, she barks non stop. So when I went into the store today and talked to the team member about what I was wanting and her behaviors she suggested this product. I came home and when she started barking and I told her to stop and when she didn't I sprayed it.,it was an IMMEDIATE quiet. then she did it again and I said no, she continued to bark so I sprayed it again. and WOW she stopped. I have to say I am so happy right now, with having 4 dogs 3 of whom like to bark it is hardly ever quiet in here, someone moves or knocks on door or it is feeding time it is a mad house in here. I LOVE IT AND I WILL BE BUYING MORE TO USE TO HELP TRAIN HER MORE. I asked her to stop tonight when my son grabbed trash bags ( another thing that sets her off) and she stopped when I asked her to… I will be calling the store I bought it from and thank the person whom helped me. Sorry this review is so long, but 6 yrs of this and nothing else has helped.renee513

I have a dog who had a very bad and dangerous habit of chasing cars. I tried everything to fix this including: high frequency sounds, treats and positive reinforcement, training, vibrations, physically restraining and even an e collar. Nothing worked, at least not consistently. I bought a can of this and my dog has stopped chasing cars after the FIRST spray! I dont even have to use it, just the sight of the can and he goes on his best behavior. It also has remedied excessive barking. I can't say enough good things about this product, it has been a total game changer for me. I immediately bought two more to stock up.RKRK

I really liked the quality of this training system. Over all the Pro system works as described. However, the collar attached to this system is longer than needed and shortening the strap is questionable given the contact wire that runs through the strap. Also, the strap would be more beneficial to be a snap locking system rather than a buckle. As my dog recognizes the purpose of the collar, she is not a fan, and likes to put up some resistance when having it placed on her. Given a snap system would take seconds to secure rather than a wrestling match.Runningguard

I did a lot of research on ecollars before deciding to purchase this one. I got this for a dog that is a rescue who has had some major behavior issues. I use the collar for training and he is excelling at everything. The only thing I would caution would not be specific to this ecollar but to all ecollars. Watch the fit. The band stretches after it's worn a few times and needs to be tightened on the dog's neck. Be sure to start out at the lowest level and only go up in slight increments until your dog reacts to the zap. This will prevent you from using more power than needed. I have three dogs and will be purchasing additional collars for my other two dogs. All three can work from this one remote. Switching from dog to dog is done by simply turning a dial.justjen

I’m very satisfied with the R.A.P.T. 1400, the remote is very user friendly and I’m so happy to have a back of the hand setup. Battery life on the collar itself seems to be much improved over my previous models of collar. My one and only complaint is the collar itself is already starting to separate layers, fraying at the feed point and I’ve had to trim and tape twice in less than a month of use (my other collars took years for this to happen). Training is quite enjoyable with the ergonomics of the remote and the programmable quick button is definitely a nice touch. Deserves a 5 star review but can’t give it that because of the actual collar falling apartJames

These charcoal pads are a new product for my rescue doggo Addie and I. Our 15 pound mix is limited to indoors and has been trained to the pads. That means lots of toilet duty and smells are a problem to keep up with. So far I've noticed a difference from previous pads in absorbency and the urine odor, and it seems not quite as strong as usual, (barring her water intake naturally). The color is new, the black pads keep the urine from showing up on the pad so you have to be careful not to mistake what would've looked like a blank spot when you do your clean up. Not a problem just a heads up. The price point is good and there's no scent associated with the clean dry pad. I believe we will try these again.PAMELA

Walmart was out of the blue puppy training. So we decided to try the charcoal puppy training pads, since the package says that it's more absorbent and controls orders. We were a little sceptical about it controls orders, but the charcoal pads really does! So this is our second package. Wal-Mart 's service is great. Items are always delivered by the delivery date they set with no damage. Thank you Wal-Mart.Sandra

I have 3 Chihuahuas mother and 2 babies now 5 months i always use a blue pad. I always wondered why was the pee passing through when not peeing on a corner i went to an xlarge and i have 2 sections in my home where they do there business i was so unsatisfied with the brand i was buying and so expensive a friend told me about glad and this was a life saver my floors are always dry now the only thing i don't like you can not stick them to the floor so when my dogs go in a circle looking for there spot the pads roll around with them 😆 but got some tape and job done. Glad training pads in my opinion is my number one brand from now on and will let others knowAnna Vazquez

I have not trained a puppy since 1994, things have changed! This book had some great ideas examples and pictures. Some of it is complicated or difficult to do. This trainer is a stay at home person, I dont have time to hand feed every meal of kibble. Its hard to retrain old habits, like only use the dogs name for good, not when they are doing something bad. So got a good start w puppy but will be going to a live trainer to help train me.sheehcari

Started reading the book and wish I would have known about it and bought it before i got my chihuahua puppy. I could have started out right from the start. This is my first puppy and I am fifty-eight years old. I really enjoy Zoey, but need help with the training. This book will be referred to a lot by me. Thanks for the expert advice, I really need all the help I can get. Bambigrammybambi

Good service from Pecheur and a good piece of kit. Be aware that the U.K. Inland Revenue will charge £65 for vat and handling!!! That’s life folks if you want quality.MikeG

I bough this to help train a rather aggressive Jack Russel . The bark limiter was just the trick , i felt bad to start with but after a few days it really changed her behaviour. she is less stressed and much happier now. i would recommend this to any dog lover.Alexkernow

Have bought two collars for two separate uses the 1900S and YS600 both are working perfectly for their intended purposes, the 1900S I love the way the remote allows greater control so the action can be more closly aligned with the action you want to correct without the harassment of searching for the controller and the button, better for me and better for the dog.Michael F.

Hard wearing tough, durable and well made. Even on my long haired dog it works fine. Not too bulky or heavy and sits with ease on dogblueboro1

This my 2nd Dogtra collar setup, and this one feels far bette in quality. The collar does sit a little tighter on the dog's neck, so I go one notch loser than normal. Remote feels a lot better than past one. Smaller tighter feel, and cleaner touch effect.swingboy01

Bought this last fall for upland hunting and general training for my GSP. Worked amazing. I had it in sub zero temps in the dakotas pheasant hunting and got it soaking wet duck hunting, functioned flawlessly. I very seldom have to shock him now, he responds to the vibrate function. I bought this after researching for several months. I have a buy once cry once mentality and am glad I paid a little extra. I love the digital reading so I know exactly what level of stimulation I am giving him. I actually tried it out on myself before I put it on my dog. I really couldn't feel anything until I got to level 20. My dog started acknowledging it at level 30, and that is where it has stayed. I haven't ever needed any more than that. Two friends have since bought this same ecollar and are extremely happy.RDiddy

Range is good, I do not like the settings for the shock control are not able to be locked! You can set it on setting 30 and put transmitter in pocket. When you remove it from pocket it maybe on 50! You also have to turn transmitter on and off! Other units do not use power unless control buttons are pressed!Jim

This product was exactly as described. The length of the two collars are long enough to be worn on a smaller or a larger dog. I have two boxers and have plenty of collar length so I feel that they would fit a very large dog. The control works well and is easy to manipulate. I can easily use the vibrate and shock buttons. The only "oops" thing that could happen is hitting the control shut off and shock button at the same time. The control shut off button is on one side of the unit and the shock buttons are on the opposite side. So when I am holding the control unit in one hand to shut it off, I have to be careful not to push the shock button in response to the pressure I am putting on the shut off button. Therefore I remove the collars before I shut the unit off. I am very happy with this product.boxer mum

I have a pup that is a large breed, he looks like I been feeding him steak and potatoes cause he's so dang big. He is ALL puppy though. Chews on everything loves running around like a chicken with its head cut off. Been trying to train him to chill with me, yeah, right. He wants to play. And because he wants to play, he wants to run every stinkin where. Decided, for my sanity as well as his safety, I'd get this thing. Put the flags out, set it on a low static charge, and it didn't take long before he figured it out. You DO have to WORK a dog with this. It's not just a plug it up and watch their hair shoot up when they get popped. Walked him around the perimeter for 7 days, he sees and sniffs the flags. After that, I let him run around, and he got popped maybe 3 times, and figured it out. Now he's pretty dang happy, and I can let him rip around with zoomies while I work in the yard. He likes the freedom of being off leash in the yard, and like the fact that he's not road burger.SlimslowShady

I wanted to give it 5 stars so bad, but the batteries die pretty fast without warning. You need to keep at least one or two replacements on hand. I do love that it is wireless, that you can choose different ranges. But I had one dog that would escape no matter what. Portable wireless system sets up in 1-2 hours For dogs 8 lb. and up Fits neck sizes 6-28 in. Tone for training plus 5 levels of adjustable correction Tone-only mode alerts your pet with a beep Automatic safety shut-off Covers an adjustable circular area up to 1/2 acre (180 ft. in diameter) Expand containment size with additional wireless transmitters Add an unlimited number of pets with additional PetSafe® Wireless Fence Receiver Collars Waterproof receiver collar Collar uses replaceable PetSafe® RFA-67 battery (included) System is compatible with all PetSafe® Wireless Fence Receiver Collarsmandy.p

I have a 2 yr old LARGE French Mastiff that weighs 180ish! I bought with the (red in color) “stubborn” collar. We previously installed a wired underground fence. (Which I have to mention took 2 FULL DAYS TO INSTALL AND READY TO USE!!) My Bo would realize he was close to the boundary, take a step or two back then take a run right through it, with no second thought!!! We watched him do this several times. I guess he was thinking, well this is going to hurt but only for a few short seconds. Idk?? But it did NOT phase him one bit! I had talked to 4 or 5 people that had this system, so reluctantly I decided to give it a try. I thought to myself well if it doesn’t work I will simply return it, no harm no foul. My boyfriend had it installed and collar on Bo in 30 mins flat. We walked ole hard-headed Bo around maybe 4 times to show him the boundaries. Once he heard the beeping, he kept walking then he felt the shock 1 time and that must have been enough because he never ventured close again! It has been about 2 months of use and I would give it 100 STARS IF IT WAS AN OPTION! We live in a subdivision where houses are fairly close. I was ultimately worried that the zone would lead into the neighboring yard. (which was the #1 thing we are trying to prevent) And although it may, Bo doesn’t even attempt to go that far. I believe he now understands to stay in his own yard! Living in a subdivision, many people take walks and Bo just sits and watches them now!! Matter of fact, just to see, we have sent him outside WITHOUT the collar and ironically enough HE STAYS IN OUR YARD!! The ONLY complaint I have is the small clear piece on the collar broke off the first time I went to adjust the strength of the shock. So far it hasn’t effected anything so fingers crossed on that! Just an FYI, we set ours on a level 3 to begin with and my boyfriend was ready to give up, so I told him to have some patience and we just kept adjusting the level on the collar and we ended up discovering for Bo he needed to be set on a #6. Again, I repeat he weighs 180 lbs, and the Mastiff bread is KNOWN for their stubbornness. I would suggest starting at the lowest level for a smaller dog PLEASE! But, if you are hesitant as myself, about this system just give it a try AND I PROMISE YOU WILL BE SO SURPRISED!!!!! I love this system, and just hope that it lasts!!!!!!Owner of French Mastiff

Already a fan of Sportdog, Ive been using a single collar for 8 yrs with no issues. This control is more exact with 2 or more collars, I use three collars and I love it. A word of caution with the camo controller and dog collar, if you drop it in the woods youll never find it. Go with the hunter orangested1201

The transmitter will not charge, despite my having ordered a new battery. The collar receives and charger work just fine, but the transmitter does not work well…it lost its charge and I can't recharge it…so it's a very expensive one-time-use collar. I should have spent just a little more for a Garmin.CabelasSucks111

The clicker even comes with simple instructions for a few basic training techniques. I've never trained a dog with a clicker before this one. It's easy to use and well worth the money.Russell R

I’ve been using this collar for the last week with my golden doodle and it’s working out great. I used to run with a leash and now I don’t have to do that. It only took a little bit of practice or training but he picked up really quick and stays close to me. The range seems really good as I let him go pretty far away when I was testing this. The collar seems very comfortable for him too. I tested the static stimulation and it wasn’t bad at all. I like the idea that you can add another dog on to this and will be pursuing that with my other dog. Overall this is a great product and has served me well in running and taking my dog for walks!!Robpolo19

This review is going to have to be followed up on. Training a dog takes time and just trying to get the dog comfortable with the product around her neck. Although the collar is perfect size for the size of my dog. This is for a dog 8lbs plus. And 6 months plus. I am working first to slowly get the puppy used to it. I have it on the lowest sensitivity setting. It appears to work very well so far and clearly my dog understands this device is in control.. It’s nicely packaged and appears to be a quality product. More time will tell but I am already happy about getting it.Kellyopp10

My lhasa loves to bark and annoy my neighbors at night. He is the master of selective hearing (he answers my calls and commands as he pleases… I guess this is a lhasa thing). I tested this trainer collar on him and got good results overall (the best thing is that I can get his attention from far away, without having to go all the way to the back yard!). I like that this product has a slim profile, and fitted well my small lhasa. He doesn't seem bothered by wearing the collar. I usually leave the collar on him during nighttime only (the user guide recommends leaving the collar on you dog for a max of 12 hours, by the way). I found my dog to respond well to the buzz mode (vibration), but he completely ignores the beep mode (sound alert). So far I haven't tried the shock mode (no need for my dog, as the buzz is enough to get his attention). The product is very easy to setup and use, and it seems to have a strong build. The charging of the collar and remote is via usb port (haven't used it a lot yet to assess how long the charge lasts). A nice feature is that the collar is water submersible. Another great feature is that the shock level can be tuned (99 different levels). It would be great if the sound and buzz could also be adjusted, but only 1 setting is available. Overall a good product. Works as advertised.henry2

Its broken, way too soon in my opinion. The spring or button is stuck and it barely makes any sound now. It did work great as I was teaching our puppy with it. I will try a different brand next time.Broken2Soon

All clickers are created equal, aren't they? Pretty much, but if you have a young pup or a particularly wild dog, then the bracelet is handy. Slip it on your wrist and if you have to let go for a correction or for pulling – drop it and it stays with you. Overall, this has been a great purchase for my new pup.AJ04

The clicker is very nice. I'm using this clicker to train my cat. It feels pretty sturdy and makes a clear and loud click noise when the button is pressed down. I also really like the addition of the wrist band which makes it easier to keep track of while in use.Beya

My sister purchased these and sent me a pack. I have a female cat that is constantly urinating over the edge of the litter box. Well let me tell you these pads trap the urine and keep me from constantly cleaning and hoping I get rid of the smell. For those of you that have cats this can be very difficult. I have the extra large pads. I place one with the white pad on the floor and another one with the white pad up (like you normally would) to catch it. I dont think I really need the extra one on the bottom. But until I feel comfortable that one is enough I will continue to use two. She doesnt do it every day but at least once every couple of weeks. It also keeps her from tracking the litter all over. When it gets soiled I just roll it up and toss it. I dont know why I never tried them. I will never be without them going forward. Thanks sis!vanesnanne

Love love these dog pads. I have used these pads for several years. Big Lots has a great price on them. Plus you earn bonus coupons after every three transactions. Can't beat it. 100 pads for $15.00.darla

I like these puppy pads cause they're big, absorbent, have easy cleanup, most puppies don't tear them up and Big Lots has them for a great price for 100 of them!! As a foster of puppies, newspapers don't work for all puppies…it can be really messy. But these puppy pads are great for all the foster puppies!!Whitney

There is a lot of good information regarding how to train your dog and also some extra stuff on behavior at the end of the book which I found great to readAJ

This book is chock full of useful information on positive reward based training. With an in depth section on positive based training principles followed by a detailed five week step-by-step training regime, not only will you have a well trained dog but also one that loves it! After introducing my 6yr old Jack Russell to the new techniques, she loves it so much she sits out on the deck (where we do our training) begging to begin. A great book that goes far enough to give you comprehensive knowledge, but doesn't steep you in scientific lingo. Highly recommended!Amba Jaqueline Amore Amore

i have purchased several of these packages in the last 2 months. However, some of the pads were defective in this package. The way they were made the pad was not centered on the backing or they were cut in the wrong place having the absorbent part open on one side and not sealed with the bavking. This has nothing to do with tractor supply as a company, or their customer service. Tractor supply and their employees have always be great to work with.Jaclyn03

Great absorber for not just my 45lb puppy but i use them outside the tub when the grandkids are over since they like to soak my rugs, and have used them at my back door on rainy or muddy days. The pads get heavy from absorbing the liquid but holds it in the layers with no drips.P McCarthy

I had bought this a week ago in store. I'm so happy with the progress my dog has already made using this. He used to bolt out the gate but now hes always right by my side, checking in on me and making sure I'm keeping up with him. I've finally been able to loose leash walk him without having to worry about him running off. This has help so much in such a short time! I recommend this to one of my neighbors and they say its helped their dog too! My dog is 120 and it still helped, I thought it would completely snap but it's very durable!serena1234

I knew about this product for several weeks, but I delayed in getting it. I thought I'd give the puppy a chance with regular training methods (treats, praise, verbal corrections) before I started futzing with a special collar and have to buy it in two sizes. That was really stupid. I wish I would have bought it sooner and spent the money on the two sizes. I got this one in a size Medium and it fits perfectly with just an easy adjustment of the buckle. Our little man is a Labradoodle, now at about 32 lbs and expected to reach a 60-ish weight probably. He is VERY high energy, very strong and very smart, but our little darling is no longer little and I have been finding myself struggling with his 32 lb self pulling on the walks. I cannot imagine when he is full grown, so I decided finally to nip this in the bud and I ordered the gentle leader. It arrived today and I was amazed at how he has NO power to pull AT ALL. I even noticed that in many situations like when he would normally lunge at something, he didn't, maybe that is just from the novelty and will eventually wear off, but for today, it was as if he had a total attitude adjustment. It was like magic. He is none too pleased about the new situation, for sure, but I am pleased as punch. Will take a few days of working with him to get used to it so he stops trying to pull it down with his paws, but even when he was trying he couldn't get it off successfully unless I let off on the tension to the leash altogether which I was able to correct for easily enough. This is a truly genius product.9112melissa

I am so glad I took the chance and purchased these for my adorable and INSANELY CRAZY JRTs.I have tried it all. Obedience lessons, vibrate collars, halters, treats… but JRTs are very independent minded and unless you spend THOUSANDS on training, forget it.I have disabilities so walking my beloved pups was a challenge most daysMy male is still adjusting. He doesn't like it.However, he will fight a bit but once he puts the one part where the clasp connects to leader and then believes he's walking himself, then he prances down the sidewalk as if he's in control again.Our female is very good with it. You can tell she's not too happy about it, but walks very well now and I don't struggle with them barking ridiculously at bikes, dogs, SQUIRRELS!, etc.She was always running on her halter and now ~I~ WALK my dogs, they don't pull me.I didn't even watch the training DVD. My husband and I just put them on. The 1st eve was a bit difficult, but its been a few days and they are doing way better.I know by next week they will be fine. Jo is stubborn so it will be a few days but Jesse has adjusted. She's just happy to walk anytime. But now there's no pull, waaaay less barking and my whole left disabled side of my body says THANK YOU!Jmyers

We don't use these absorbent pads for our dog but they have plenty of other uses. We actually first purchased absorbent pads (puppy pads) to line the floor in an area we had an ill cat, for which they worked really well. But since then, we've used them mainly as leak catchers/drip absorbers. These are a very good size. They are not super thick. There are advantages to that in that they can be stored easily, moved around easily. And for the price, a great value. The work very well in areas where the roof leaks a little… flat roof and rain don't mix well. Leaks happen suddenly. Having these types of absorbent pads available until said leaks can be fixed is so handy. I haven't had reason to use the pads under a heavier flow of water. I also bought some Hartz XXL pads which are super thick and absorb heavier flows. I did use other pads similar to these Vibrant Life pads under a heavy drip and while they needed frequent changing, they worked and given the performance of these pads where I have used them, I would suspect they would perform similarly. Our use is atypical. The dog doesn't need them but in other situations, where we need an absorbent, disposable surface, they work well. – Ill cat, throwing up: the perfect solution – dripping skylight: catches those drips until you can make repairs – Drips in a bedroom: the pads are the quietest way to manage a drip during the night, in a sleeping area. – need extra large "bibs" for any reason? Well, these work.Md

These doggy pads have saved our floor and sanity! We love our elderly dog very much. She is considered a part of the family. At 16 years of age she is having issues controlling her bodily functions. Vet suggested using diapers or pads. She caught on quickly to transition to using the pads. Less anxiety for her and us. We can recommend!BargainHunter

We have been using these for 6 years, and up until we received our last order last week with the “new look” it seems as it also was a new product!! The new ones are terrible, they are more of a plastic material now so they are melted to itself so it’s hard to pull apart without tearing it all up, and with the new plastic, it makes them slick on hardwood floors. Leave the product alone, changing the look is fine. Quality was not involved in this switch.Chad

Retriever Super Absorbent Extra-Large Dog Training Pads, 100 ct. are the only pads that work for my dog Joe. He's an older dog, and goes frequently to make "lemonade and fudge"as we say it. The pads are easy to get out and unfold, and are very absorbent. They withstand any claw scratching that happens, and are very convenient to use. They make our world a lot easier, and Joe's world a lot cleaner and happier.The NUBalicious

These are the ONLY pads I use for my dogs. From my 8 pound Mini Dachshund to my 125 pound Great Pyrenees! These hold up to the weight and volume of the big dogs with no nail punctures and no leaks. Plus work perfect for my little girl who thinks she’s the big dog, giving her plenty of length to pick her favorite spot. The quilting on the product does not shred or tear like other brands. I have used this brand for over 15 years and found it to be number one in quality and design.idonthave1one

I like these pads primarily for their large size and high absorbency. I have a senior female Labrador Retriever who expels a significant amount of liquid waste when she empties her bladder. She fails to wake me at night to go out ( don't think she tries) so the pads are a convenience for her and they save my carpet. They are also good for inside a crate or perfect when you want an absorbent pad laid down to protect any surface from accidental spillage from humans or animals.MikeInGrovetown
