YNP #085: How to Handle Potty Training Overnight

Potty training can be overwhelming. The good news is, one of the first things we can check off the list is getting our puppy to sleep through the night. Potty training overnight is a little different than during the day. Even though they can hold it longer overnight, they still aren't going to make more than 4 hours or so at first. Our goal is to take them out as little as possible while still minimizing the risk for accidents. I give you the steps to make this happen.I've seen puppies as young as 10 weeks sleep through the night but most will be closer to 16 weeks.Hopefully, this episode will get you closer to that uninterrupted night's sleep!Remember the one thing that trumps all else????
