Who this is for
A running diary of a puppy's day for house-training. Every wee, poo, accident, meal, drink, sleep and play session goes on a line with the time and the place, and within a few days the pattern that tells you when to go outside is on the page.
New puppy owners in the first weeks at home, families sharing the job between several people, and anyone whose vet or trainer has asked for a record of accidents.
What this helps you track
- How long after a meal, a drink or a nap the puppy needs to go
- Where accidents happen and whether they cluster in one room or one time of day
- Whether the puppy is asking to go out, and whether anyone noticed
- What everyone in the house has done, when three people are taking turns
How to use it
- Write the puppy's name and age and the dates the sheet covers at the top.
- Log every event as it happens — time, what it was, where — including meals, drinks and sleeps, not only toilet trips.
- Tick the asked column if the puppy signalled first; note in the notes column who was on duty.
- After a few days, read down the times: the gaps between eating and toileting are your schedule.
- Start a fresh sheet each day or two; keep the old ones until the accidents stop.

The printable is laid out inside a box that fits both A4 and US Letter, so the two files are identical and neither one is scaled. The fillable PDF has real form fields. The online version keeps what you enter in your own browser and builds the completed PDF on your device.
How to print
Download the A4 or US Letter file to match the paper in your printer, open it in a PDF reader and print at 100% — not "fit to page", which shrinks the writing space. Both files leave a 14 mm margin, which clears the unprintable edge on home printers. To print the online version with your entries in it, use the Print this sheet button, which prints only the sheet and none of the page around it. More on printing.
Questions
How often should I take a puppy out?
Often, and more often than feels necessary at first — but the exact timing depends on the puppy's age and the pattern in this log. Your vet or trainer can say more; the sheet makes no rule of its own.
Why record meals and sleeps as well?
Because toileting follows them. Without the meal and nap times on the same page, the accidents look random. With them, they usually do not.
What counts as an accident?
Anything indoors that was not on the pad or in the place you intended. Record it without fuss — the log is for spotting patterns, not for blame.
Do I need the two pages?
A busy puppy can fill a page in a day. The second page is the same table again; print as many as you need.

Puppy Vaccination and Worming Schedule
Keep the first year of a puppy's treatments in one place, with the dates your vet gave you written down before you forget them. The weight at each treatment is worth recording too, because a puppy's changes week to week and nobody remembers it afterwards.
