My dog Lucky is an older dog (not a baby but not too old) and she pees in her cage at night. She goes to bed at 9pm and we let her out about 7a-8a… HELP!!
My dog Lucky is an older dog (not a baby but not too old) and she pees in her cage at night. We let her out at about 7-8 in the morning, shes outside all day. She gets fed at 7pm, and its back outside till she goes to bed at 9pm … HELP!!

let her out at like 8 45 before you sleep. then let her out again when you wake up. she should not *** overnight if she has peed before she went back to sleep.

make sure her crate is not too big! usually that is why they *** in them. the crate should only be large enough for her to stand up and turn around…i know it sounds confining, but any larger and they can “separate” the cage into bedding areas and potty areas. also, try not giving her water around 8pm or so, then taker her out around 9pm, make sure she tinkles, then bring her in to the crate. good luck!

Here’s a wild idea just before you put her in her crate, take her out to ***.

When do you walk her for the last time? Asking a dog to hold it in for more than 8 hours is unacceptable. Can you hold it in for eight hours? What do you mean she goes to bed at 9pm? Do you make her? She should go to sleep when you go to sleep. And, right before you go to sleep you have to take her out to ***. Some people man.

I would rule out something medical. Dogs don’t go potty where they eat or sleep.
