Len1782 · **Crate Training/Housebreaking My Puppy -** 06-06-2006, 03:54 PM

Hi.. I have a 13 week old puppy. We have started crate training/housebreaking her. We all work during the day, so we leave her in her crate with water and she' done well. We take her outside so she can relieve herself in the morning when we wakeup, before we leave for work, when we get home from work, after she eats and before we turn in for the night. At nighttime, my husband doesnt like to crate her, so she sleeps in the room with us, on the floor next to our bed. She's actually been really good, but in the middle of the night or early in the morning before we wake up, she relieves herself on the pee pads we leave out. It's great in the fact that she uses the pee pads, but I dont want her to get used to relieving herself all the time on the pee pads in our bedroom. Is there anything we can do without crating her at night?
