[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]To tag along OP’s post, I have a question about night time potty training. I take my puppy out to the backyard to go potty in the day. However I hate to go out at night two or three times every night. It’s too cold, and my deck has a few stares to the yard, and yard is slippery with the recent rain weather. So I let my puppy pee on a pad by the door. I think my puppy is confused and ends up having accidents in the house. What would you do? Thanks![/quote]

How old, what kind of dog, and what times are you taking your puppy?

2-3 times a night seems like a lot unless you are counting a 9/10 pm last pee of the night outing.  From early on (8 weeks), we would take puppy out at around 9/10 and then once before morning.  I would take him out at 6:30 am when he was really young but he was comfortable waiting until 7:30 am by the time is was about 14 weeks old if not sooner.  We stopped the middle of the night pees before he was 12 weeks old, he just started sleeping through (or at least not whining to go out).

Can you take him out the front at night on a leash, meaning are there fewer steps?  It is just a quick pee, not a walk in the middle of the night.[/quote]
