my husband takes him out when he barks at 5 am and he feeds him as the breeder ( mu hubby's uncle) told us that is when he fed him when he first had him, we put him back in his bed in our room in the bathroom with a gate across the door which is next to our bed but he continues to bark and won't go back to sleep

If I put him in his pen in the kitchen he will wake my 3 and a half year old up

I can't win! This morning he did go to sleep in his pen after my husband put him in but my daughter then got up! LOL! I didn't know if feeding him later would make him sleep longer or exercising later.
