As often as they eat. You do not have to take them outside or anything. They do not have control over their bowels and bladders yet, so Mom licks their bellies to make them go, then she cleans up after them. It is kind of a survival technique, because if they were in the wild and a predator saw young puppy droppings, they would know there is free dinner within 10 feet. She will do this until they are about 2 weeks old, then they will go by themselves and you will have the never-ending task of changing newspaper under the puppies.

∙ 14y agoA puppy with good health and no behavior issues (ie- anxiety) is generally 20-40minutes after eating. Depending on age, size and amount of food eaten, some puppies will need to go directly after eating. Some will go after waking or coming out of a crate. Just don't expect the puppy to have any self control over bowels until about 4-5months.

What age do puppies poop?
Puppies already know how to poop. Edit: The original answer is incorrect. Puppies need stimulation to poop and urinate when they are first born. Typically the mother will lick the puppy to get it to urinate or poop, but if the owner needs to assist then you can use a warm paper towel on their stomach and anus to get them to use the bathroom. This is very important until they can do it on their own, which is about 2 weeks after birth typically.
