Puppies do not gain bowel or bladder control until they are around four months of age. Until then, you shouldn't expect a puppy to "hold it" for every long. A good rule of thumb for how many hours a pup can go between potty breaks, is the puppy's age in months, plus one. A three month old puppy shouldn't be expected to "hold it" for more than 4 hours.

Until the puppy is trained to relieve itself outside, it would think nothing of going to the bathroom in the house, because it doesn't know any better.
