We have even tried to keep her up at night and wear her out, by playing non-stop, but nomatter what time she goes to bed she is up at 5. Any help? I swear this dog is ADHD, just like my son was never wanting to go to sleep! |
She's a puppy so this is normal especially with very small dogs. Mine are way older and while my youngest will sleep in - my oldest is always up at the buttcrack of dawn. I've taught her 'Lay back down' and she will but she still wakes up at 5am. You'll find after a year or so your puppy will eventually calm down.
