I take mine out now every 2- 2 1/2 hours the older they get their bladder's strengthen and you won't need to take them out as much when he first got home it was about every 1 1/2 to 2 hours . Your little guy is handsome! Are you crate training him?

Christos0320

Yes he is being crate trained. And I realise as long as I wake up once in the middle of the night to let him out he has no accidents.

Yes I do the same thing as well. Also don't let them drink or eat anything 2-3 hours before bed!

Christos0320

Sounds good. Well I think I'll let him eat no more than 2 cups per day no matter what. And hopefully that will slow it down. He may also just have a weak bladder? digestive system.

Do you leave water out all the time?

Sadie

All young pups have weaker bladder's because they are not fully developed yet. They are babies so they can't hold it as long as an adult dog. The excessive gas could be from over feeding or it could be from the feed itself. Every dogs digestive track sensitivity will very from dog to dog. If the gas continues and becomes bothersome to you or you notice problems with the the coat, skin, or stools I would look into a different feed.

Around 10 days after I got onyx and using a clicker and treats it set it. He went to the door and waited. It has been that way ever since. Never mistAkes or anything. This is just how onyx more or less absorbed whAt I was interpering. He will not ever go #2 on walks or once. He hAs a working mindset

My pups at that age always went outside about every 45 minutes to an hour.... As for food I did 3/4 cup in the am and one cup in the evening and always at least 8 to 10 hours apart...

Thanks for all the great advice. I think we have pushed it to every 2 hrs now. And he hasn't been having accidents at night anymore with me waking up at around 5am to let him out then I go back to sleep till around 7am. The only time its getting to be annoying now is when I am away from the house for say more than 3 hrs he always goes potty in his crate

did you see the other post i have on the last thread you indicated problems with this, i believe your kennel is to large, he needs something he can stand turn around and lay down in , not enough room to walk around or play in

Bruno is having Pee issues too, I took him to the vet,and they can;t find anything wrong(new vet time)

I will take him outside,he will pee massive loads of pee,then come into the house,and not 5 min later pee a bunch on the carpet.

It's not a training issue,cause he is potty trained. Most of the time I don;t think he knows what he's doing.
I'm going to try just giving him ice cubes later in the day, see if this changes anything.
You can give your pup ice cubes later at night instead of water.

Also, I never go by what the bag says either. I fill Up Bruno's dish(it's not to big) and he eats till he's full,which usually leaves food in the dish,and I also only feed him twice a day.

He gets treats constantly too.

Do you give your pup treats? This could also be a factor.

i just got a new pup she has been with us for 4 days be she has figured out if i say go potty and she goes potty then we get to go back in. i could take her out every 20 mins and say go potty and she will squeeze something out. it could just be he thinks every time you take him out he has to use the restroom.

Christos0320

Now I completly agree with you hear. He has learned to go on command so well that every time we go out he 90% of the time goes. The problem I have is I am so nervous since he does make some mistakes in the house that I am having a hard time letting him go longer than 1 1/2hrs. So I think I'm gonna try to give it a little longer so that he can start building stronger bladder muscles and I have reduced the size of the cage

Here's a pic of how I have tried to reduce the size of my massive crate. I hope it works!
