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.
Add your answer. How long can a 5/6 month old puppy hold their elimination? i will be getting a puppy and have 3 months where i can be there full time but then will be absent for 6-7 hours during the day. the pup will then be about 5/6 months and i was wondering if it could hold its waste that long. i really need answers!!!!!
