On a typical day my crew goes outside 5 times.

It varys, and depends on the weather. Sometimes they are in and out all day and other days they will only go out for a few quick toilet runs.

Mine will go out as many times as they can convince me to get up and go to the door. It's the "In/Out" game. They love it.

:D

They go out at least 7 times, every time they come in i give them a treat for coming when i call , so now they want out all the time just to earn a treat, its too cute!

I think with Merlin it would be easier to let him out for the day,,,, as he is always wanting out,,,, but Lucy is part camel... I am lucky to get her to go out anymore then 3 or 4 times day///

Mine is an indoor dog because we don't have a garden :( but I take Snowy out 2-3 times a day for a long walk at a nearby garden or the beach.

It varies with my dogs too.
I put 5 but it could be more or less depending on
them.
I do not know what is up with Sheba but for the
last couple of weeks she has been wanting to go
outside and than back in the house 3 times just
between 5:30 and 8:00 p.m.

Rocky on the otherhand has been wanting
to go outside a lot less since the rains have started.

I guess it depends on the weather just how long
the dogs want to stay outside.

For us, it's more like how many times does your dog come inside.
Major is allowed in the porch a couple times a day.:)

In the winter, I'd say on average around 5 times, and very briefly usually for Tasha! In the summer they go out much more :). Of course since I work from home they get the opportunity to go out more than some dogs whose parents have to work.

I guessed the average is 5 times a day for Disney but now that she is losing her mind sometimes she will ask to go 5 times in a row in a 30 minute period. She gets out there and just stands and looks like "what am I doing here". It's so sad.

aw, poor girl :(

Mine go out when ever they want too. So I'd say 5 or so times.

I don't keep track. But Sarah goes out at least 7 times. Dusty and Roxy come in for a couple hours, then go outside for a couple hours...they are in and out about 2-3 times a day.

I think 5 to 7 times, I really don't keep count.

Mika loves to go outside and mooch around in the mud or lie in the sun, but I have no idea how many times, probably 6 or 7.

More times then I can count. I really do need a dog door. I've taken to leaving the back door open, so they can go in and out at will, but come springtime and the onset of bugs, that's not going to work so well.

There's no telling how many times mine go out in a day. We have a pet door, and there's always someone going in or out. :)

we have a doggy door for him, so he goes in and out constantly, as long as it isn't raining outside.. he also goes out for walks atleast 2 times a day :).. so, I would say more than 7! He loves playing outside.

On a typical day, 3 times. Once before work, once after work, and one more time before bed.

If the weather is really bad it can be less, if the weather is great, could be more. On the weekends, we're out a lot depending on the weather.

Depends.

Samantha loves going outside if it's sunny, overcast but no rain, or snowing. She'll go out as many times as I'll let her out - and she always gives me "the eyes" so I always let her out whenever she nudges me.

If it's raining, you have to fight with her to get her to go out.

Blaze LOVES the outdoors, so he's out a lot! Dunno the exact number though...

3 or more, they have 3 potty breaks, first thing in th morning, immeditly after they have breakfast, and immediently after they have supper. any other time they go out it up to them and it varys by dog, Perky rarley goes outside in the winter, but in the summer she likes to lay in the sun. Misty loves being outside for short periods of time for the main purpose and running along the fence barking. Happy only goes outside if she has to pee, and she is asking to come in again right away. Ripley it varys from day to day and Blair just likes to go outside so he can hide under the deck and bark :rolleyes:

Gracie goes out at least 7 times a day. Not just to go potty but just to get out and run. I also have to fight with her to go out when it's raining or snowing.
