Not house-trained pup, can we leave him outside?

Not house-trained pup, can we leave him outside?

By: Dr. Jon Rappaport

Our question this week was:

I have a 4-5 months old Staffordshire pup he is wrecking the house at night and going to toilet all over the place when we go to bed and leave him inside. Could we leave him out side at 4-5 months old?

Answer

I'm sorry to hear about your pup. I think 4 to 5 month is a little young to turn outside. Have you considered crate training? This may be the best thing for your pup!

Good luck!
