Puppy housebreaking schedule
There's an old saying that puppies' ability to hold urine is relative to their age. Puppies 6 to 14 weeks old need to go to potty somewhere around 10 times per day, whereas adults only need 3 or 4. Be consistent with words you use during potty time. Some dogs may take months to potty train, even if you do everything on your part.
