14 week old havanese hasn’t been going poo immediately after finished eating anymore (and by that I mean like 30min-1hr)
We feed three times a day and I feel like before I could guess he was gonna definitely go within the hour of eating so it was easy to plan ahead for his crate naps and be predictable about his bathroom needs
But lately he’s been able to hold it in a few hours and now I’m just getting nervous about missing a poop window when I put him down for his nap. I mean thankfully he hasn’t ever gone in crate but now I get all nervous especially when we have plans or something.
Like on Sunday it was the first snowfall so he rlly refused to go poop outside all day and we had dinner plans in the evening so had to put him in crate for his nap and I was soooo anxious the whole time that he would need to go in the 4 hours we were gone. Thankfully he didn’t go but it was probably like 6-7 hours since his last poop and that’s a crazy switch up from his very regular poop schedule of within the hour of eating.
I’m just wondering if other ppl have gone through this and if this is just like him growing up and his ability to hold it in longer? I may just be overthinking but he’s my first puppy as an adult so I just want to make sure this is normal so I can stop stressing lol
