Highlighted Reviews
"Chewy always delivers right on time, and these Glad potty training pads are amazing. They absorb full bladders from overnight without a leak! Love them!"
"They were very thin and not very absorbent. I had to tape them to the floor as they would not stay in place for my dog to use. My dog would not pee in the middle like she does with her other pee pads. I was constantly changing the pads. We have gone back to the blue pads with the sticky bottoms."
