| My four cuddle with us and sleep the entire night, including an 8 mo. old. Also limit their water intake after 7:00. Do allow a small amt., though. Don't want to be too mean. Did the crate thing on the bed for awhile. Didn't like it. Ended up allowing the in-training furbaby to sleep with us and just set an alarm for an hr./how many mo. old. At six mo. your little one should be able to make it for at least 6-7 hr. Maybe Lexie just wants to cuddle with you. Read in a Yorkie how-to book that Yorkies like to sleep with their owners. I love it! You might, too.

| Mochi is 6 1/2 months old, she still wakes me up to go potty. When she was 4 months old, I found that she could hold up to 6 hours (I was holding her all the way and she did not ask to go). I also found that if she had a warm and comfy bed, she could slept thru the night and not waking me up for potty. If the bed is not comfy enough, she wakes up in the middle of the night and wants to go out of her crate. I think it is all depends on the baby if he/she wants to hold or not, so I think a little crate training will help.

| I have always free fed my dogs. Now that I have Izzy (4 1/2 months), she will BARK loudly in the middle of the night to go out, but Diesel is fine all night at almost 10 weeks old? I am thinking I might have to change the way I feed all of them because of her. I guess that isnt BAD considering Cleo and Joe are both getting pretty chunky, but Lola could stand to gain a few pounds.
