But he said this was with adult dogs. I just wonder if a puppy knows he has to pee in enough time to do that, or if they might just have to go when the feeling strikes. Since Cookie whines and paws at her cage at night when in bed when she has to go out, I lean more towards the former I guess. |
Sorry about my trucks typo btw
. I'm on an iPad which I'm not used to, and I'm terrible at proofreading regardless.
At night I've been keeping Lola in an exercise pen, and I always know that she went to the bathroom because she wakes my up by crying, and stops after I give her fresh potty pads. We are in a new place ( the beach) so I'm watching her like a hawk so she ( hopefully) doesn't have accidents.
I want to see more cookie monster!
