It does get better as he gets older. If you can't walk him before bed, I have found that 30 minutes or so of vigorous play before bed does wonders. Chase, fetch, tug-o-war, whatever works for you. Huey will get so wound up that he gets "the zoomies" and runs in laps around the living area like a madman. He sleeps much better after expending that energy. Otherwise, he will stand on my chest and drop toys on my head instead of sleeping! He still wakes me up about 1 1/2 hours before my alarm goes off, but usually goes back to sleep easily after pottying so I can get that last nap in before work. |
