Guest verthib Posted December 9, 2011 Share Posted December 9, 2011 Um, I was thinking the same thing. Seems like a potty before human bedtime should be mandatory. I definitely agree. If I dont MAKE my 3 go out and toilet before I go to bed, Im awakened at around 3am. Me too. I do "make" mine go - a gentle nudge of course. I would never ever make them hold it for more than 8-9 hours unless it's an emergency or extreme situation. I sleep better, they sleep better and it's better health wise for their bladders.

Batmom Posted December 9, 2011 Share Posted December 9, 2011 Sounds like the person isn't making the dog hold it -- the dog prefers not to go at that time and has no problems waiting until later. Doesn't seem like a big deal for a healthy young-middle aged dog. My angel Zema was like that for much of her life.
