Simple Solution Original Training Pads, 50 Pads

Simple Solution Original Training Pads, 50 PadsAbsorbs well. Actually, out of all the pads listed, I have had the best luck with this one. I have two small dogs, paper trained. I put these down on the bathroom floor, and they far surpass any other item I have used to date, and I have tried them all!

The pads work great. I have3 small dogs and they all use the pads while I am at work if they can not wait until I get home. They are big enough but since I have 3 dogs I spread out 3 of them and it is more than enough. These potty pads are absorbant and bigger than many of the other pads I have tried.

I stumbled onto these pads due to a promotional price. Since then I will choose these as long as I can afford the extra price. The pads have eliminated my constant cleaning up of leaks etc...

They are also a more appealing light yellow color that blends better with lighter tones floors.

And yes, I'm talking about the "new & improved" version.

I love Simple Solutions' line of cleaning products, especially hardwood floor formula. Their pads have an extremely positive rating, with reviewers saying they are the "best" they've found, after trying many different brands. I, too, had been trying different brands, looking for the fabled "best", so that got my attention. I expected these pads to be good, even great. Potentially the best.

Wow, are these terrible. I can't comprehend how anyone could think these are even tolerable! I have 2 dogs under 20 pounds. One has congestive heart failure and is on a diuretic among her meds. I put the pads out mostly for her ocassional Frantically Urgent times, when she can't even wait to ask to be let out, or if we're not home, or asleep. The other dog just uses the pads for funsies, I guess, but I know she sometimes uses them. But they are both house trained and go out on a regular schedule. So these little dogs should not be a challenge for wee-wee pads that are supposedly the best. Oh but do these pads fail.

1) They're leaky. The plastic backing is outrageously flimsy. It has wide borders that aren't absorbent, so if the dog doesn't hit the bullseye but goes off to the side, game over. Even if they have good aim, the plastic is so flimsy it is easily overwhelmed and just starts letting it through.

Side note: Sometimes my older dog thinks she just needs to get her front feet on the pad. She's wrong, of course. Anybody else know dogs that do that?

2) They're not very absorbent. It takes a single use to destroy these things. I've watched my elderly dog go. Poor girl has to do a balancing act or stand in her urine because the pad puddles outwards. A good pad will absorb so well and so fast that the "affected area" will be small. Not these pads. They just aren't absorbent! They instantly become soggy messes.

3) They can't hold liquid. Once a dog goes, a good pad will absorb the liquid and become dry to the touch. These do not. They remain soggy. The absorbent material turns into a disgusting wet "gel" that my dogs have actually slipped on, and of course they track urine. My girls have to stand in their puddle when they go! Dogs don't like that.

4) They stink. A good pad will absorb odors. Not these. I can tell when my dog has used her Super Urgent Panic Pad that's in our bedroom (for when she can't even make it to the "official" wee-wee pad area by the back door where she prefers to go.) The whole room stinks of urine immediately. when we come home from being away for several hours, and missed a regularly sceduled outside time, the *whole house* stinks because the girls have used the pads.

5) They are just BAD! A truly awesome pad is essentially a diaper or maxi pad in floor mat form. Absorbent, dry to the touch, controls odor, doesn't leak. That is "the best". These Simple Solution pads are actually "the worst" and we've tried about ten different kinds, including OUT! Dog Training Pads with Moisture Lock, 50-Count, Four Paws Wee Wee Housebreaking Pads 150/Pkg, Natures Miracle Quick Results Training Pads, 80 Count, Super-Absorbent Polymer PUPPY PADS Dog Wee Wee Housebreaking Disposable Training Pads, by Downtown Pet Supply 100 Count, Hartz Antibacterial Training Pads for Large Dogs, 30 Pads, and Arm & Hammer Ultra Absorbent Puppy Pads 50 count. And more.

The TRUE "BEST" we've found are Iris Neat 'n Dry Floor Protection and Training Pet Pads, Regular, 100 Count.. They may be small, but they are amazing. Everything a GOOD pad should be! Everything Simple Solutions isn't.

Thank goodness we found Iris when we did, too. I was getting really darn tired of disgusting inferior wee wee pads. Other truly *good* pads include Four Paws Wee Wee Housebreaking Pads 150/Pkgand Hartz Antibacterial Training Pads for Large Dogs, 30 Pads, which are bigger than Iris Regular Size but not *quite* as good otherwise. They are admirable, respectable runners up to Iris's championship. :)
