Puppies are suppose to hold their bladder for 1hr for every month
that they are. Making the crate smaller is a good idea because
they don't usually potty where they lay. Take her out as late as
you can before bedtime and hold the water until morning.
You have to get up early to take her right out. Then you can go
back to bed if you need to.
As long as she is not in a hot place she won't need to drink water during the night,which of course will make her potty. Since she is only four months old she should be able to hold her bladder for 4hrs or about that. Some hold
longer, some hold less. Test her and see where she is. Another month
or two and she will be ok I'm sure. |
