Another way of getting your puppy to use the puppy training pads is to include it in his play area. Puppies need a little bit of control when they are, well, puppies, before being let to explore on their own. That is why a lot of people agree that the best thing to do is to set aside a part of a room for them so that they can play and explore safely at first. Also, when doing so, you can place a training pad among the other things the puppy has around him. This way you can make them identify the pad as a part of their “world”. Also, treats are a good idea in order to strengthen the point that it’s OK to go on the pad.
