Your puppy is less likely to potty with you standing right there, and you are more likely to notice the signs. He won't be able to wander off to an unseen corner to relieve himself, either. Before this time, allow your puppy exercise though free play and take as many breaks as they want.

Context Explanation

Repetitive exercise like long hikes/ walks and high-impact exercise like jogging and jumping should wait until after 18 months.
