I have two Yorkies, 5 and 7 years old. From the beginning they have not slept through the night. I know part of it is I'm not able to ignore the whining, so I am reinforcing their behavior by letting them out a couple times during the night. I'm curious as to what other people do to have their Yorkies sleep through the night. ?? Most importantly, I'm wondering if you pick up their food and/or water at a certain time. ?? P.S. I realize the importance of them getting exercise during the day, and they DO get that exercise...but are STILL getting me up at night. Any info would be greatly appreciated.
