Okay....I bought this product for my dogs. They are mostly indoor dogs and get to roam around in the bedroom at night. I was having a lot of problems of the dogs "marking" at night while I slept. They seem to get the message now and rarely have an "accident". Even if they do it all stays in the pad and in the morning I depose of it! My sleep is now better and the dogs are very happy I let them on the bed sometimes!
