He will go about 10-15 minutes after being fed, at his age. It will take awhile for him to learn/develop bladder control, but potty should be easier. Feed on a strict schedule, so that he isn’t fed just before bedtime, as he will need to go shortly after being fed..Young pups should be fed and then walked 3 (or 4 if feeding 4 times) times per day, UNTIL THEY POOP He will need more frequent outings for peeing Walk him just before bedtime, to make certain he is empty..Never scold for mistakes, but give lavish praise every time he goes outside, like he won the spelling bee ..Pups can only hold their pee for 1 hour, per month of age..So, its important to empty them just before bedtime..Use the same word every time, such as do the doody’, or whatever..The most important thing is to watch him closely, and scoop him up and outside when he begins to act restless, turn circles, etc. soon he will whine and look at you when he needs to go.Be patient References : btdt
