Puppies should not go all night without water. However, to aid in house training, you can remove their water bowl about 2-3 hours before bedtime. Always ensure they have access to water during the day and a chance to drink just before you take them out for a final bathroom break for the night. This helps balance hydration needs and house training efficiency.
