My 1 year old rescue of 2 months house trained quickly but recently regressed with night time weeing and pooing & not sure how best to resolve.
He sleeps downstairs in the living room free range of downstairs/landing but we do try and make sure he's settled and in his bed before we go off to bed. He hates being left alone in the day so could be separation anxiety when he's waking & unhappy on his own in the dark or just a habit but either way any ideas how to resolve? Plenty of daytime walks plus one last thing at night when he always wees and poos (10:30ish and then bed 11 until he wakes us c.7am).
Mealtimes 7:30 & 5pm not health concerns. DH won't have him sleeping upstairs (he comes up to wake us but otherwise never goes upstairs) and crating not an option.
Should we preempt with toilet break in the night? I know you do this with puppies but he can (& presumably should be able to )last the 8ish hours of night.
