North Shore under pads on amazon.com sells reasonably and they are free shipping. I buy from them all the time and have never been disappointed with their product. They do not leak through and they are large enough I can scissor cut in half and make two that lasts longer. I just put the cut end toward the back and the pad is placed in a hard plastic liner just in case my dog goes too close to the edge. They also send a free Xtra large under pad in each order. You get 100 quality under pads for about $40.00 and if you cut in half, you get double the amount for the same price and it's a quality/quantity stretcher. It's up to your dog whether an under pad is going to be of use. One of our dogs uses them between outdoor potty time or when we are away from home too long.

What we have done for our 14 year old cocker spaniel isnto is to use bany size 3 diapees and use the diaper inside of a belly band. It is way cheaper than buyimg doggie diapers. Our cocker spaniel has doggie dementia, deaf, blind, glaucoma with six eye drops a day. His onky good sensw is smell. He loves to eat and smell to whimper for food if he smella our dood or if it any food, bread, etcetera us kedt on counter.

Puppy pads work 1/2 the time and then they don't and it all depends on your dog's taste in pads. I am considering using a gravel box much lower than a litter box as my dog can't jump into or out of anything anymore. She still enjoys outside time only if it is ideal temperatures so her preference to pee or poop on ground is still her favorite place. She can't help her age at 19 years old, and I don't expect her to enjoy peeing in the house but she can't make the outdoors and her need to urinate is often so holding her bladder or bowels is just cruel to do. Therefore I do not crate her and try to find her messes as sometimes she is cautious of where she goes. I think even at her age, she is somewhat embarassed and doesn't want her misgivings to be noticed.
