The problem with mine is most of the time he will go half an hour after eating, but not only that but he goes at OTHER times too! So it's been tough predicting when he will go and when it's safe to let him run around my living room. On the plus side, he's been getting better at going out to the patio area by himself and doing his stuff out there (I leave a wee wee pad out there). The problem with this is I live in FL, it's warm, and leaving the AC on with the screen door slightly open isn't so good for my budget, plus flies/moisquitos start coming into my apartment. But I'm going to resort to this method for awhile. What else can I do? I really love this little puppy but we're going through some growing pains right now lol.
He currently eats Nature's Choice dry puppy food. Since Monday he's had very little appetite. It used to be I would feed him like 3/4 cup a day of food and he ate all of it, plus he'd watch me avidly while I ate! (Meaning he still could eat more if I gave him more). But nowadays, he barely touches the food, so I'm not sure what the problem is. He's been eating at most 1/4-1/2 cup of food a day.
