Just recently, like within the last two weeks, Charlie has started whining in his crate at night... and it's not right away either. It's about a half hour in... just long enough for us to fall asleep and then he starts whining, then crying louder, then barking...
We let him out at least once in the night to see if all the fuss is that he has to go to the bathroom, but it seems like he just wants to play.
Then, when he gets back in the crate he whines some more.
I tried putting him in bed with us thinking that's what he wanted but he just runs around and plays and chews things, like us, and that is no good for trying to sleep either.
We've had him for 3 months now and we've never had an issue with this.
We usually go to bed around 10:00 and i get up everyday at 5:20.
HOW DO WE GET RID OF THIS PROBLEM?????????????????????????
