Like humans and animals, plants need both water and nutrients (food) to survive. Most all plants use water to carry moisture and nutrients back and forth between the roots and leaves. Water, as well as nutrients, is normally taken up through the roots from the soil.
So, for example, a 3-month old puppy should be able to hold its urine for approximately 4 hours in a pinch. This means that if you have a properly toilet trained 4-month-old puppy that, theoretically, can hold its urine for 5 hours, and you shut that puppy in a crate for 6 or 7 hours, you are courting disaster.

That does NOT mean if a dog is 15 months old he can hold it for 15 hours.I think by hour 8 you are pushing the issue. 1 poop/pee a day would be normal depending how much you feed her. My schnauzer was a once a day pooper as well.t Louis, MO. Posts. 517.
