Hi all I am struggling here as I have never had a small house dog before. Two weeks ago I acquired a 5 wk pup. And before you say anything I know he shouldn't have left his mother but it's a long story and not a very nice one. I have taken him to vet and he is doing very well, bouncing about and eating the right foods, wormed etc. He is a brill wee dog and I and my family love him to bits. I have had him sleeping in a box with training pads outside in my room (hubby works nights) and he wakens me when he has to go. The problem is he is now too big for box and sleeps in a comfy bed with training pad beside it - however he will not stay in the bed and keeps running around the room thinking its fun time. Any advice on how to keep him in bed. He doesn't get his first injection until next week so I can't take him out through the day to tire him out and is it true that you cannot take a pup out until his second injection.

I would be grateful for any advice.
