Hello Everyone,
We just brought home a 10 week old ACS puppy, Sir Samuel Samuelson, aka Sammy. He is now the little brother to our 4 year old yorkie, Izzy. We are crate training him and want to get him on a schedule.
My fiancé get up 6 days a week for work around 5am. So he will take him out then for potty breaks. Should we feed him and give him water after that, then put him back in crate. I usually get up around 9am. So I can take him back out and give him a walk. I work different hours everyday. While my fiancé has a set schedule. So far he has done pretty well. He likes to whine and bark when he is first put in his crate but settles down. We always free fed Izzy and left her water out but she is pee pad trained.... We definitely want to train Sammy to go potty outside so should we have him on a eating/ water schedule?
