The Cry for a Potty Break

Puppies also cry because they need frequent potty breaks. Their tiny bladders can't hold much, and they need to go out often, especially at night. It can be challenging at first to distinguish between a cry for attention and a cry for a potty break, but it becomes easier as you get to know your puppy.

To avoid accidents, follow a consistent potty schedule. Take your puppy to their designated potty spot frequently, gradually increasing the time between breaks as they grow and their bladder control improves. Keep a record of their potty times and any accidents to identify patterns and adjust the schedule accordingly.

Recognizing Potty Signals

Puppies have different ways of indicating they need to go potty. These can include:

Crying or barking

Circling or sniffing the floor

Pawing at the door

Ringing bells (if you've trained them to do so)
