| HELP can't sleep Hey I just got my new york. He's 8 weeks old. He sleeps fine around 12am till like 3am after that he wakes up and starts barking and playing. I'd been really tired, I don't know how to deal with it. Any help? I bought him a carrying crate. I throw him in there and he barks all night so I give in and let him out. |

| Hey, Welcome to YT! The only way that I got my Yorkie to settle down at night was by letting her sleep with me. Probably not the advice that you're looking for

| Awesome! REAL men own Yorkies In your case, I'd suggest you use some tough love tactics. Use a crate or ex-pen, set your Yorkie up in his area at night with everything he needs, and do NOT give in when he whines/barks etc. He will give up after he realizes the whining isn't working. It may take a couple of nights.

| we put him in our room in a pack and play next to our bed, with a few toys, a pee pad and a few towels as a bed. He did bark/whine in the kitchen when we went to bed,but since we moved him to our room he has not made a peep all night, and never had an accident off his pee pad. I do correct him if he starts to whine or paw at the side of the playpen.

| Put him in a crate or pen in your room close by. There are many good threads on Crate training on Yorkie Talk. Do a search and hopefully you will get some good advice. I hope you get some sleep! |

YT Addict | well I have a 8 week old puppy too. What I do is play with him for at least 2 hours before we go to bed. I keep him awake. I get on the floor and we play and play, by the time he crashes for the night (9:00), he sleeps until 5:30. I would try tuckering him out before bed. |

Donating YT 500 Club Member | Yep unfortunatly you will probably have to wait it out.. and not give in. I would keep the crate by your bed at night. You probably wont sleep for a while, but thats one of things ya gotta through i guess when you get a pup. Hope it gets better soon!
