I got my new 12-week old puppy Bentley on Wednesday and that night woke up in the middle of the night really sick-vomiting, fever, achy, etc...not fun, especially with a new puppy. Luckily, he slept alll through thr first night and was really mellow all day--no accidents, either. I was terribly sick all day yesterday. My boyfriend and neighbors came over and helped me with taking the dogs out, etc...
Last night, I put the puppy in his crate at 10:18 pm and he cried straight through until 5 am when I just couldnt take it anymore! I had to get some sleep as I was still so sick. So, I took im outside to potty and then me, him, and Oliver fell asleep on the couch where he is still peacefully sleeping now!
I want to train him to sleep in his crate for now---I cant believe he cried for so many hours, non-stop! Maybe because we didnt do much yesterday since I was sick. Maybe I need to wear him out before bedtime? Any sugeestions would be appreciated!! Ear plugs?!
