Male Dogs & Brilliant Pad: What you need to know

BrilliantPad is the world’s first self-cleaning dog potty; a cleaner, more convenient alternative to traditional potty pads for both male and female dogs. That’s right, male dogs can use BrilliantPad too! Follow along to learn how traditional leg-lifters can become #BrilliantPadPups. 

The most important things to consider when contemplating BrilliantPad for your little man: 

• Does your dog weigh 25 pounds or less? 
• Does your dog currently use potty pads? 
• If not, is your dog a puppy?

Puppies of both genders squat to potty early on. It isn’t until your pup begins to mature that he starts to lift his leg to potty. It is part of their instinct to mark their territory. This is why it is crucial to begin training your male dog to use BrilliantPad in the puppy stage. This encourages the squatting to continue which lends itself to the BrilliantPad lifestyle.  

If taught early enough using proper training methods, your male puppy should have no trouble becoming a BrilliantPad pup! Male puppies are often trained on potty pads as an alternative indoor potty solution and the training process for BrilliantPad is very similar.
