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.
As to potty training, an 8 week old puppy should be able to hold it for at least 3 hours, but you have to be very vigilant so you can recognize the signs that he can hold no longer and get him to his potty spot.Crate training, especially with a Lab, is almost mandatory.es. A puppy needs to go to the toilet every hour, and if they eat or drink then they will need to go out to the toilet within five minutes, so always take them outside straight away. For every month of a puppies age after 8 weeks they can generally hold their bladder for an extra hour.
