You will have a much happier and healthier pup and you will be happier.

Remember these little ones have very small bladders, and a 7 week old has barely begun to be able to control potty habits. She needs access to potty at all times of the day.
First time to post, but I brought Roxi home at 9 weeks and did the same as above. The first night she woke up twice. After that, she sleeps every night without a whimper. We also filled a water bottle with warm water and wrapped it in a towel for the first few nights because we knew she would miss her sister. Her xpen is in my daughter's room, so when my daughter goes to bed, Roxi knows it's time for her to go to bed.
