To me it would be common sence to let the dog relieve himself so he
can eat and be comfortable. I actually had to tell the dog walker to do
this. Hello!
Buddy get's walked first thing Mon-Fri at 6 am, feed at 6:30, out again
at 8:10 and off to work I go. Then out again at 5:30, feed at 6 then
out again at 9:30 for the night.

I can't imagine enjoying food if I had to go potty

She has a pee pad indoors, when she wakes up she usually goes on it immediately and relieves herself. She hasn't been outside as much and she just got her rabies shots (now im more comfortable with her roaming outside). I'm going to start training her to go outside now. She loves outdoors! i guess there is so much for her to explore!

Does Buddy hold it for 9 hours? My Yorkie is a toy size, She can hold it for usually 4 hours, the only time i've seen her hold it 8 hours was that one night. Maybe she slept all the way through the night.
