A couple of puppy related questions:

* Would you "say" approx 15-20 mins of exercise (be it done by themselves or with me thru walking or playing chase in the yard etc) every 2-3 hours is enough or even every 3-4 hours ? Is there a good general "rule of thumb" exercise requirement for puppies ?

* Pee pad training - right now I'm rewarding the puppies whenever they use the pee pad. This can be via affection or food treats. How can I go about training them to NOT pee anywhere else in the house ? I'm learning the signs to look out for before one decides to pee ... and usually it is in the same spot as previous times.... however how should I 'react' thus allowing the dog to learn it is meant to use the pee pads ? At the moment, I'm not reacting at all except to instantly get up, get the disinfectant (vinegar or whatever is on hand), paper towels and wipe it up.

Thanks !
