I can't watch him while I sleep and he is 3.5 pounds. I don't want him to kill himself in wires or soemthing. It's ridiculous to think a puppy is safe roaming free in a house. I don't leave my 9 month child roaming free and I am sure neither do you! |
Have you tried allowing him to just sleep all night with you?
Chances are he won't budge all night long. I think he's telling
you he's lonesome and want's to cuddle with you.
Believe me I know what i'm talking about. Have one that was
very much like that until I finally allowed him in the bed.
It's been 4yrs and all is fine. He's happy being close to me.
If your afraid of him going threw the house put a gate across
your bedroom door where he can't get out. Yorkies don't give
up easily you just have to try and find out what is bothering
him. I think you will be surprised that his crying at night will cease.
