 We've created a monster!
Our little Jax is both diabetic and blind. He is our snuggle bug boy and we adore him. We try and make him as comfortable and happy as we can. He now knows and understands how much we adore him and here is where the problem comes in. All of our puppers sleep in our room with us. Jax snuggles down between the two of us each night. Sometimes he would wake us to get up and go potty. One of us would take him down and he would do his business, I would usually give him a small snack to make sure his sugar stayed high enough through the night and back to sleep he would go until 5am. As the weeks went on, the waking times became more frequent. We would go through the routine and back to bed. Well, now we are up about every 2 hrs through the night and I think expecting a snack. I started to check his sugar when he got up, it is usually around the normal mark so no more snacks. Golly, do we just try tough love a few nights in a row to get him back on track? We have created a monster!! LOL.... |
