Question
Hy i have a puppy bulldog of nearly 3 months, that i am trying to house break...he is doing very good i must say so i am wondering when can i make his crate bigger.. because i had to put the divider in it to make him stop doing his thing in bed 2 weeks ago. He still has ,maybe, have an accident here and there if i dont pick him up and take him out every 2 to 3 hours...thank you for any help you can give me.
PS: I am giving him Royal Canin food 3 times a day with a spoonfull of cottage cheese per meal and a teaspoon of corn oil twice a day.

Answer
Hello Alessandro - Best wishes on your new bulldog puppy!!!!
Ok, let's cut out the cottage cheese at night.  Just give it 1-2 times per day in the daytime hours only.  Also, limit his water intake after 8 pm. You can pick up his water bowl and limit him.

PLEASE NOTE ( If you live in a very hot area, he must have water at all times)

The food you are feeding is OK - If you live in the USA, let me know and I will suggest a few more options for you.
The corn oil is ok but Salmon oil is much better for him.  PURE salmon oil can be found at most pet stores.

I hope this helps!
BEST wishes
