Since she cannot see, she sleeps a lot more during the day and doesn't want to play, and her sleep schedule is way off. I'll try to keep her awake more during the day and see if that helps her sleep through the night. Kennel downstairs will be a fall back option if sleep deprivation is getting to us. She got us up four times last night....either wanting water, wanting up on the bed, wanting off the bed, managing to remove her diaper to relieve herself on the floor... �� | The sleep issues are part of dementia you really need to look into that. Diapers are really terrible for dogs because they can get urine scald and rashes.
