I would think that she may just need a wee but we put her on her wee mat and she normally has a wee but she just lies down to go to sleep so we put her on our bed until we wake up. She's left alone during the day for 1-2 hours at max so she's not on her own often. Is this down to seperation anxiety? How do we train her out of this?
Thanks in advance! |
Like any new baby they will cry a lot. Eventually they will give up and cry themselves to sleep. Put a fan on in your bedroom to try and cover the noise. I keep my dog up to at least 10:00 and she sleeps the whole night. It will be hard at first. Small puppies have small bladders so they might per a lot for the first year.
