Thank You for helping. He goes outside when my boyfriend gets home from work at about midnight. And we do bring him out of the crate and go outside to go pee pee when he wakes up in the middle of the night. it was just strange to me that he would begin to do it in the third week of being with us and not right from the beginning.

Maybe it had something to do with him being nervous at first and now that he's more comfortable he is able to wake us up to let us know he has to pee?
