Charlie is around 5 months now. He, 85% of the time does his business on the puppy pads, and sometimes we catch him in two other spots. He is gated in the kitchen all day when we're gone, and crated at night in our room. He can roam freely when we're home and awake.
When does it stop? How do you know when a good time is to let them have "free roam" of the house when we're not there, or to let him enter and exit his crate as he likes at night time?
