Question
my dog is a male, 6 months old. How many times during a day will i need to take him outside to pee?? I usually take him out at 9am, 4pm, 8:30pm. I have school and i work so i dont really have time to take him out every 2 hours like many people had told me. My question is, is that a bad habit for my dog? will he develope some kind of problem later on?

Answer
ok at 6 months his bladder is still very small and cant hold that much,he really does need to have access to pee every few hours . I think that if he only seeing you during those hours then he is likely to develop psychological issues soon.
I think he needs much more interaction between daylight hours, dogs are social animals and they must share experiences with you as pack leader.
