A Little Dog with Big Circles
Our Puppy’s Potty Pad Journey
Life got a little cuter (and a whole lot spinny) when my parents brought home a new puppy.š¶
Like most pups, heās full of energy, curiosity, and that magical ability to turn every corner of the house into a potential potty zone. š
Thankfully, with a little patience, a handy non-toxic spray, and the worldās coziest playpen setup, heās quickly learned where business gets doneāand where it definitely doesnāt.
This is the story of our little guyās journey from carpet-confused to potty pad professional⦠with a few loops, laps, and tail wags along the way. (šļø Amazon Affiliate Disclosure:

š” The Welcome
When he first arrived, we werenāt sure how heād adjust.
New sounds, new smells, new peopleāand letās be honest, a very big world for such a tiny pup.
But it didnāt take long for him to steal hearts (and a few slippers) as he explored his new home one sniff at a time.
Like most puppies, he didnāt come with a manualājust a wagging tail, endless energy, and a complete lack of interest in designated bathroom zones.
š«š§ No Pee No Poop & the Great Potty Pad Plan
Thatās where No Pee No Poop Spray came in.
We needed something gentle and non-toxic but also firm enough to say, āHey buddy, not here.ā
This spray helped us draw invisible lines in the houseāno yelling, no stress, just a clear boundary.
And then came the real game-changer: the potty pad playpen.
Itās like a little apartment for himāenough space to move, spin, and sniff to his heartās content, but with a clearly marked ārestroom.ā Total win.
We use this one and itās worked perfectly for his size and setup.
š Potty Victories & Puppy Pride
These days, he struts to his potty pad like he owns the placeāand honestly, we kind of let him. š
Watching him master something as simple as āgo here, not thereā has been a sweet reminder that progress comes in tiny, tail-wagging steps.
