I have a 1 year old Pembroke Corgi. At night time I put him in the kitchen blocked be a baby gate. Every night he has accidents, during the day this is usually not a problem only at night. What can I do to fix this?

Take his water away a couple hours before bedtime and take him out before you go to bed. This may help

Your 1 year old is pottying in the house? That's not good.
Consider returning to the basics. Make sure the dog goes out immediately before going to bed. Keep the dog in a much smaller area, such as a kennel or crate since animals will not foul their immediate living area.
If the dog still has accidents in the smaller area, he may actually have a problem holding for that amount of time.

Try not to give him anything to drink after a certain time at night, then just let him go potty before YOU go to bed . I put my little one in her cage she knows that that is her bed and she goes right to it. Usually they don't potty in their bed but it does happen once in a while. The dog might be be mad at you for locking him up too, if he does this when you leave, that's his way of throwing a temper tantrum, he's going to show you for locking him up. Good luck

I keep pee pads down if my dog is somewhere inside for a period of time. I've never had a problem because if he has an accident, he goes to the pads... You can get them at Walmart or Target. The greast thing is they are not very expensive either
