Desperate help with my 2 dogs... indoor potty!!!

Granted by Heroes: lizzieborden
I am struggling so much trying to make a living and playing bills. I work a full time job and jus recently started 2 extra part time jobs just so I can provide and feed my daughter. I have 2 Chihuahua puppies I adopted before I feel into hardship and due to me now working so much, I am unable to let them outside like I should. My home is a 10 mile one way drive from work and I cannot afford the gas as it is let alone the extra trips. I'm fortunate that the dogs will pee on puppy pads, however due to boredom and having to be locked in the kitchen, they have begun shredding the puppy pad :( I did some research online and found an indoor potty system for dogs. I am so desperately in need of this! I cant afford the extra trips home and I cant afford the damage to my kitchen floor along with the stress I am already putting on my dogs :( I am a single mom of an 8yr old trying so hard to make ends meat. Working 3 jobs and being a full time mom is extremely hard, but Im trying to make a life for my daughter and I. Please help me! I do not believe in animal curelity and do not wish to get rid of the pets. I would rather go hungry myself to feed my daughter and dogs. They are all I have in life. Im begging with all my heart for help granting this wish. Please God answer my prayer!

Thank you everyone... i tried the litter training at puppy age but they wanted nothing to do with it. They are pretty good about using the pads but once they are shredded theres nowhere for them to go but the floor

Dogs can be litter trained just like cats. Chihuahua's are small enough to use a cat size box. Just train them like you would a cat. They should learn quickly as they are pups. You can also put the pee pads in there and only there so they get the idea to potty in te box. slowly add litter each day (i would suggest something like yesterday's news or feline pine) until the box is just litter. Good luck.

I don't have the funds to purchase this for you right now but I can help contribute some toward it. Do you have PayPal? My dogs won't use anything but tinkle pads. We use the ones made for people from Sam's Club. They are very large and less expensive than the ones made for dogs.

I have one and it only used on occasion by our new puppy. Our older one won't even go near it. I hope you get your wish granted and it works for you!
