However, they are typically adopted by their foster parents who have cared for them during the reunification process. At Summit County Children Services, you must become a foster parent if you want to adopt.
And when I ask how long they've had the puppy, it's usually a short time like 3 or 4 days or maybe two weeks. It takes longer than two weeks (generally) to fully potty train a puppy. (Some do catch on much faster.) It's very simple to potty train a puppy, but that doesn't mean it's easy.
Nighttime Crate Training. Just like you, your puppy can wait longer between potty breaks when he's deeply sleeping at night. Unlike you, however, he probably can't make it a full eight hours. At 12 weeks old, most puppies need to go outside at least once during the night to go potty. Set yourself a gentle alarm four to five hours after your pup goes to bed so you can take him out. Try to avoid loud, obnoxious alarms, which can upset your puppy and cause him to potty in the crate.
