Question
iva had my pom since she was a pup. shes always used peepads. when  i take her to my moms' she always uses her pad w/o fail. we just moved and SHE WONT use her pad at home. she pees EVERYWHERE! I'm so frusterated. she obeys when shes w/ my mom, but for me she pees constantly and everywhere.

Answer
Hi there...that is because the dog doesnt understand where to go to the bathroom. The pad is the same, but the house is different and the location of the pad is different. I usually tell people not to use the pads since the dog knows they are ging inside the house and once you move, this is what happens, You will have to start completely over and crate train the dog where to go. It may be harder now that she is older, or it may just take a few days. But you do need to start over.
good luck
