    Don't think you meant to post this to one of the TV forums. Moving this to Animals and Pet Issues.

    It will take time to train her. She should still be with her mother at 7 and a half weeks, pups shouldn't leave their mothers and littermates until at least 8 weeks, so it will take even longer to train her.

    You have to take her outside after every meal, and she should be on 4 meals a day at her age, after every drink, and everytime you play with her. You will also need to get up through the night to let her out, at least every 4 hours at her age. The joys of having a puppy in winter, much more pleasant to house train in the spring or summer.

    I think its a waste of time training her to go on those pads, as you are going to have to train her twice, once to go on the pads, and once to then go outside, much easier just to train her to go outside.

    7.5 weeks is very young to have a pulpy away from its mother... Is there a reason why you got her sooo young?

    At her age she's still very much a baby and will take weeks maybe months to train her...

    Personally I think the pads are a waste... You need to bring her outside every time she eats, drinks etc.... Every hour or so and when she goes outside reward her...

    Is there a reason you don't want the dog to do it outside?

    every half hour take her outside and watch her, when she goes praise her and bring her back in, she will soon associate outside with toilet time. Unless you are in an apartment and dont have a garden.
