One mistake I made early on was when we were first crating our new puppy. I figured, she's going to pee in the crate, so maybe the best way to make clean-up easy is to put paper in there.
But wouldn't that confuse her? Here's the create--don't pee where you sleep. But here's paper, and that's where you've been peeing your whole life so far...
It's tough, thinking that if there's no paper, then she'll just be soaking in pee. At least the paper should absorb the pee and keep it off her fur. But I read in SMART Puppy, that paper in the crate's a no-no. And that makes sense.
Maybe for the first day or two, it's OK. But maybe that's it, over the next few days when she starts figuring things out.
