If my understanding is correct, then does that mean Teddy only has a chance to pee/poo twice a day? If you're sleeping by 9:30pm and not waking until 9am, that's 12 hours of holding in his potty! And if he doesn't get walked in the afternoon, whatever time that may be, that's 12+ hours.  Do you also have pee pads for him for indoor potty? Or maybe I read your post wrong... 
General rule of thumb for puppies is that they can hold one hour for every month they are old. So at 7 months, Teddy can probably hold 7 hours to 8 hours in between potty breaks.
My schedule differs from yours slightly but Scottie hasn't had an accident in months and he's outdoor potty trained. He's fed twice a day and walked three times a day. Basically, he has his potty-walks before his meals and potty-walks before bedtime. potty walk at 6:30am
eat breakfast at 7am
potty walk at 4pm
eat dinner at 5pm
potty walk at 9:30pm
bedtime... |
Basically, just to clarify again because I still feel it's not clear. Teddy is allowed to go outside in the garden at any time during the day to toilet and the only time he is not allowed to get out to the garden is if I go out and leave him or overnight. Other than that he goes out as often as he asks to x
