HOW LONG CAN 8 week puppy hold pee at night?

【Expert answer】
Any Q

Unless you have a tiny breed, a good rule of thumb is that a pup can hold their bladder for about as many hours as they are months old (i.e., a three-month-old pup can hold it about three hours, a four-month-old about four hours).


How long can an 8 week old puppy hold its bladder at night?

A rule of thumb many trainers agree upon is that a puppy can hold her urine for the number of hours that corresponds to her age in months, plus one. So an eight-week-old puppy (two months) can hold it for three hours—but that is the most time she can hold it, so she may feel the urgency to eliminate before that.

How often should I take my 8 week old puppy out at night?

If you start him when he's 7-9 weeks old, it'll probably need to be every 2 hours; from 9-14 weeks, every 3 hours; 14 weeks and up, every 4 hours. These are general guidelines, of course, and you may find that your puppy needs to go out more or less frequently.

Should I wake my 8 week puppy up to pee at night?

Then the answer is YES. You should wake your puppy up to pee at night! Once a puppy reaches 4-6 months old, they will have almost a full-sized bladder and are able to hold in their urine for longer. With proper potty training, you and your dog might get through the night without wet incidents.
