Over the last few nights Toby has started to get really naughty and I wondered if any of you could offer some advice?
He has his normal 'nightly walk' about 9ish and then just before we go to bed 10:30-11:30ish I pop him out into the garden for his last wee of the night. The last couple of nights he has refused to do anything other that wee on the nighty walk and nothing just before we go to bed, no matter how long I wait. But now he is waking us up in the middle of the night anywhere from once to four times. We taking him outside, sometimes he does a wee or a poop but often he will just stand there sniffing the air. I don't want to get into the habit of not taking him out in case he really needs to go to the toliet, but I really think he is just trying to push us.
Also he used to come upstairs to wake us up if he needed a wee in the night, now he has taken to scratching the door to the living room which is driving my gran mad. Any ideas how I can stop this? The door to the living room needs to stay closed as he is not allowed in there at night.
Any ideas?
