I have 2 choc labradors aged 5 months and 11 months. They are both well behaved and will let you know when they need to pay a visit. The youngest even pulls to the gutter when out for a walk. The problem I have is at night, I am not able to stop them doing their business in the house. Each morning they wake the family up at between 5-6am and we come down stairs to at least 2/4 wee's and poos. They go out last thing at night but I don't know what to do to stop this - can anyone help

Are they crated? Have you tried setting your alarm to take them out at 3am, before they've had a chance to mess in the house?

Yes, I would ask if they are crated at night. We have 3 10 week old girls and they go to bed between 11pm and midnight in a cage and dry all night till they are let out in the garden at 7am. They don't like to mess in their beds!:-)

no, they aren't crated and I don't really want to start that but I think setting my alarm at 3 and letting them out is a good idea so i'll try it - thanks
