I have used those non skid rubber mats to put on top of the newspapers so that the pee will flow through and they won't get their feet wet. You can check out my pet's blog to see what I mean.

Another alternative is to leave an old towel or doormat somewhere after the newspapers, where your pet will step on after she has peed. My pets' toilet is in our human's toilet.  I'll leave an old towel or doormat just outside the toilet.  After they peed, when they stepped out of the toilet they would step on the towel and they would have dried their feet there and would not have left any paw prints on the floor.

mine is active too so wen i train her, i will be fierce to her. My daisy only learn how to sit and calm down wen she's around 6mths old. so, no worries

I do really like House of Groomers very very much. Never have any problems with them. You can also look for Jason, he is one of our members here.

There has been quite a bit of discussion on what to do to clean our dog's beard. I still have yet to find a suitable method, but recently, Scottie's beard has been rather clean compared to his younger days. I can't really pinpoint what was done to make his beard white, but I can list down what I had done previously:

1) I use a whitening shampoo for his beard and white areas. When I wash the beard, I not only use a brush to brush it, but also use a handkerchief to sort of 'scrub' the beard as well.
2) I try to keep the beard as dry as possible. After he eats, I use wet tissue to wipe the beard clean from anything that might get stuck in the beard.
3) Some say drinking water from a bottle might help. I used to do that, but Scottie doesn't like to drink from it, so I ended up buying a Yogi bowl to lessen the mess he would make when drinking from a normal bowl.
4) Whenever I send Scottie to the groomers, I would ask them to trim off as much of the brown bits of beard as possible (but at the same time maintaining the 'shape' of the beard) This helps to keep him looking clean most of the time
5) I did try a product before called "Health N' Shine" for Scottie. It's a powder like product that you sprinkle on the food for the dog to eat. It would work from the inside out, eliminating the bacteria and yeast that might cause the brown stains from the eyes and stuff.
6) Another recommendation from a fellow Schnauzer owner is to use saline solution (the solution used in cleaning contact lenses. ONLY get the bottles that say "Saline Solution") to wipe the beard everyday to keep the area clean and free from bacteria that might grow. I tried that a bit, but it got a bit too much for me, so I only do that every now and then.

It comes with age I guess...Scottie likes to wet his beard a lot too when he was younger. Nowadays I seldom see him do that, so I'm guessing it's because of age or something
