Hi, I was wandering if some of you experts could give me some advice. We are getting an 8 week old puppy next week (Shar Pei). We lost our first shar Pei a couple of years ago. We are keen to train her to toilet in a specific area of the garden as we have 3 children. We are thinking of fencing off (something low) a small section and to encourage her to use this only. My husband and I are disagreeing over this, he wants to concrete this area so it can be easily hosed down plus thinks the grass will die anyway. I think it should be grassed as am worried that encouraging her to toilet on concrete will encourage her to do it on pavements when out walking? Has anyone got any ideas on this, or options for something so children and dog poo don't have to mix!
