| Does your yorkie sleep at night? Alphy sleeps with me, but I swear he's up and down all night long. Not always, but a lot of the time. Like last night he kept getting off the bed to play and stuff. Sometimes he's just not comfortable and he'll lay here then he'll move there and then the end of the bed, then the top of the bed. I'll wake up in the middle of the night and he'll come runnig from who knows where. How many of you guys have night wiggle worms and what do you do to ease them?

| Adonis is 5 years old, and sleeps through the night, unless a thunderstorm is coming. I can feel him move around a lot then. Venus is about 15 weeks old. She's been waking me to go out, about 2 times a night from the crate beside the bed. Uh...I feel a nap for me coming soon! |

| I am so lucky! I am a sleeper, good for at least 8hrs. When Buddy started sleeping with me at around 7mos (I could not keep him in his bed at night he would contantly jump on the bed and wake me up!) I told him his as_ was grass if he bothered me! Well of course he did. Bitch black out and I feel a cold nose up my nose, in my ear or just sniffing around me. I was ready to kill him. I cried many nights not knowing what to do. Then it stopped. He started sleeping right through. I guess as they get older they settle down and understand. My 5 yr. old granddaughter sleeps over most weekends and one Sun morn she told me she woke up and Buddy was sitting up looking at my face. I know he was starring at me waiting for my eyes to open. He knows better not to touch me before I wake up! |

| Perhaps he needs more exercise in the evening? Well......Kacee used to be up and down from her bed onto the big bed quite a bit. Now, she just does it once in awhile and I think eventually she'll stay on the big bed all night. She pretty much does now. Besides, if she gets cold, she'll come snuggle up to me. Muffin never, ever got off the bed in her life! They can be sooooooooo different from one another.

| Hootie and Hobbs are up and down all night. They are too tiny to jump on and off the bed, so they'll play on top of the covers. Hobbs will sometimes whine wanting off the bed, but I just grab him and put him under the covers where he likes to sleep, and rub his belly until he goes back to sleep. Hootie will settle down when Hobbs does. They are so silly. |

| Indy sleeps all night long. Sometimes he has trouble getting a comfortable spot, especially if the German Shep gets on the bed, but once he is comfortable he crashes. My husband has been working nights for 2 weeks now and the bed gets filled up with the dogs quite quickly. My Jack Russel always sleeps at the foot of the bed and Indy sleeps right between my husband and I, the German Shep usually sleeps on the floor unless Bob isn't home, then he sleeps in Bob's spot on the bed. |

| My babies sleep allllllllllll night long -- UNDER the covers!! Codie sleeps under the covers inbetween me and Jim but pressed up right against me. Tee Tee sleeps on my pillow but I wrap her in her little pink blanky to keep warm. They sleep great all night long -- they don't budge. On a rare occasion, Tee Tee will jump down to go pee pee but that is rare.

I Love My Lil' Punkin's Donating Member | Mine does the same thing! Oh gosh, your Alphy sounds just like Stedman I swear. He is up and down all night long. Well not always, but ALOT of the time. He will jump down off the bed (even though he is WAY too little to be doing so! He thinks he is big though ) when Brinkley (the cat) comes in to use his littler box (eww lol) and Stedman will actually sit there and watch him do his business. Geez, how polite Stedman Give your brother a little privacy once in a while! Then when he wants back up on the bed, he will come to either my side of the bed, or hubby's side of the bed and sit there and bark until we pick him up. Little brat! I don't even recognize it anymore though. It is like an instant reflex to roll over and pick him up and put him back on the bed when he barks, even when I am dead asleep. Hubby does get very sick of it though lol

| When Tiger sleeps with me, he's like Alphy . . .he moves around so much on the bed. But with Annika, she sure does sleep like a log as long as she is cuddled next to me. She does wake up sometimes in the middle of the night (just once) and that is my cue that she needs to go so I take her to the pad and she does her business . . . then off we go back to bed and we both don't wake up until the alarm goes off |

| It takes a little while for Howie to settle down before bed. He usually chews a toy in bed for about 30 minutes before he decides he wants to go to sleep. And then he comes right next to me and literally just flops down and passes out. Lol. Sometimes he does get up around 5 - 6am to go potty on his pad on the floor. And sometimes he wakes me up because he's up and thinks mommy should be too. Last Sunday morning I was exhausted and he wanted to play so I took him into the living (where it's puppy proofed) and let him run around on the floor and play while I went back to sleep on the couch. After an hour or so he came back to sleep with him mommy on the couch too. Silly pup!

| I love it when they sleep next to you, but sometimes it scares the bejeebies out of me. I wake up and he's like right there and I panick that I've suffocated him in my sleep. I'm like Alphy, Alphy, and I shake him and he doesn't move... then I really yell Alphy and he's like what? What are you waking me up for? Shew!!! panic attack, another 1/2 hour for my heart rate to come down.....
