She's quiet all night until my hubby gets up to get ready for work. Then he spends time with her.
What we've done to also encourage this behavior is we've made the x-pen at night very homey. She has her carrier/bed, her pee pad for when she can't hold it anymore, water, a little bit of food, chew toys and her favorite soft toys. So far the only night she's woken us up is right after we got her and she developed a mild case of bronchitis but fortunately after a week of meds she was fine.
Good luck with the training, it's hard I know and takes patience... lots of patience.  Chelle |
Kalina is very good about sleeping at night too. We put her in her crate at 10 and she sleeps until about 6AM when I come down and take her outside immediately. She can't wait to pee at this point and so far she doesn't go in her crate at all. BUT, she is definately a biter. I have bought her a million toys and I have tried the NO BITE or the OUCH. I have tried putting my finger cross wise into her mouth, near the back, but she still tries to bite. She also growls but only when she is wrestling with one of her toys. If I pick her up while she is growling she never tries to bite me, so I'm not sure how to handle that situation.
