| I forgot......how long does it take until they go potty less frequent????? How quickly I forget....It seems as if Tatum goes pee alot. About every hour to hour and a half during the day. She can go 9 hours at night. When does the time between potty breaks get longer? She is 61/2 months old and weighs almost 4 pds. Thanks for the reminders!! Jacque, Summer and Tatum

| Mine did the same thing. Around 8 months or so he slowed down to every few hours during the day but has always gone all night or almost all night without going since he was 3 months old.

| She does seem to drink alot. I am not sure how much because she shares a bowl with Summer. How much do you think is normal? Summer is 3 she goes out about 5 times a day. If she didn't hold it at night so long I would think she might have a bladder infection. She is had gone this much from the beginning though.

| Jackson is 6 months old and he goes pee maybe 5 or 6 times a day. Poops usually once, sometimes twice.

| WoW! That would be great. She is so petite I just wonder if her bladder is tiny too. She has some problems with leaking when she sleeps sometimes. The vet seems to think that she needs to go through 1 heat to stimulate her hormones. He thinks it should help. Thank goodness she is pad trained. How big is Jackson?

| I heard that it coincides w/age...6 months, they can hold it for 6 hours. 7 months, can hold for 7 hours & so on. I would think this is useful when crate training, but when Mimi & Momo were pups, it seemed like they went every couple of hours. I think at about 8 months they start to go less often.
