Gracie's first night here I put her in the crate and put it on my bed next to me since she was not having being left on the floor. Well, that didn't quite make her happy either. So I folded a beach towel and opened the crate. She came out and laid down on the towel right next to me. I turned on a night light so I could keep track of her. She woke up once during the night, went into the crate, went pee, and then came back out and went back to sleep on the towel next to me.
After that I pushed my bed against the wall, put one of those body length pillows along the edge by the wall so she couldn't fall down there. She has slept with me from the first night and never had an accident. She was already pretty much pad trained when I got her. She was the easiest pup to potty train I have ever had. |
