Is this pad holder secure enough to prevent the dog from pulling it out and ripping the pads to shreds, thus preventing a floor mess

No it doesn't hold them the dog can remove them and destroy them. It doesn't function the way it claims to..

I do not put the pad on top of the grate ... always underneath the grate ... that way the dog puppy will not have access to the pad and will not be able to shred it and make a mess. To get your dog/puppy to go on the grate just use a dirty pad underneath and the scent should attract him. If you do not have a used pad then create one by wiping up his pee pee with a mat and then place your pad under the locking grate. If you can get some of the pee pee to wipe onto the the grate area, that too would be helpful. I hope this helps to aid your dog's success.

So far, I have not had that problem. I use the larger wee pad and just lay it on top. However, my dogs are adults and don't have the tendency to shred paper. I don't know what a busy puppy may do.

If the pad is placed under the mesh grate fully (with no edges sticking out). Even if an edge was out (either because it was put in crooked or too large for the box), it cannot be easily pulled out from under the grate. It is very study.

My 2 morkies have not been able to shred the pad in this holder . we have had it now several months...the last two holders didnt stop them from making a mess of the pad before I even left the house. I believe the reason is that this one actually locks the pad in by sliding into groove and locking down on little round knubs....please note it is not small enough to put in a large crate.

Yes that's how I have to use it. My dogs tried hard to get to it and couldn't. Its a hard plastic piece that sits on top of the pad (the pad sits below it and doesn't touch the plastic so they can't pull it out).

My chihuahua left the pads alone with this holder. Other brands of holders I've used he has torn apart. I would definitely recommend this as I had success with it before he was housebroken.

I suppose if it was put in correctly the dog would not get it out. It has snaps around the entire box that snaps the paper securely. We get lazy and don't snap it down so our very lively Schnauzer/Yorkie has taken it out two or three tmes when she's really upset at being left alone for too long.

I have not tried to use in in this manner, however it should work. It would easily attach to the floor, but if you are trying to go onto the seat, it may rock or wiggle if used for a Medium to Large dog.

Yes. A washable will work fine, and the frame will prevent your dog from missing the pad.

No, because it has little square holes all over. It is basically for keeping things from "sliding" around. Hopes this helps.

I do not have a dog, but the floor is not hard...just canvas-type material. If the dog sits in the seat, it might work, but if he jumps around the floor probably won't hold up. Hope this helps.

It comes with a divider that folds in half for storage. It has no opening but I doubt you'd need one. Is it for one dog or two? That's mainly what the divider is for imo. When training/house breaking a dog you want the area small enough that he/she will "wait" so as not to soil his "den". If you're wanting to put a puppy pad in the cage, you wouldn't need a divider for that. Anyway, it has a divider that folds in half for storage, you open it out to use it.

Yes mine pups are now 8 months old and the still use theirs have two morkies...both female one 10 lbs and other 13.5 lbs....this has worked great and they have not yet been able to get the pad out of this holder.....

No the adhesive is not strong enough in my opinion. I think it will come loose when repeatedly walking over it or/and cleaning the floor.

I would think so. Just don't be too over enthusiastic congratulating you dog if it uses the pad as it may get the wrong message. I scared mine into thinking he was doing the wrong thing! Thankfully he got over it.

Yes it holds securely with magnet and turns pad off when closed and on when opened. Great cover to own.

I have this on an adjustable sleep number bed. The mattress is thick plus the head and foot goes up and down. I have never had a problem with the pad slipping off. Hope this helps

Amazon sells good ones. I get a little larger pad so it is larger than the holder since my puppy can pull it up if it doesn't hang over some. Love the pad holder

I am happy with this product. It keeps the pad straight and keeps the puppy from chewing it instead of using it.

I have two puppies and they do shred the pads, They do not do this all the time though, I buy the blue piddle pads and try to tuck in any excess around the pads. I find these pads very useful for training in spite of the tearing

There is Velcro on the edges so that you can attach several mats together, and that does tend to hold on to our rug. I don't especially want that, but it does happen. I'm sure they didn't intend it to be a way to keep the mat from slipping on the carpet, but that's the end result. We haven't had a problem with it slipping, in any case.

We never had a problem with it. The surface is rough yet for good traction it is needed. The dog that we bought it for is deceased so it is currently stored . We have another large dog and if needed we have it. It is strong and we never had concern of it collapsing with our dog. I hope Suzanne this helps provide some comfort about it.

Yes, I found the product holds the pads in place nicely. I have an older dog so she is not to destructive when it comes to the pads. I can acutally just lay several pads over the grate at one time and remove one at a time as she uses them.
