Hi all,
I am hoping you can all give me some advice. Just over a week ago Roxy was sick on her bed. As I had already ordered her a new bed, I just threw it away and put down a pillow for her thinking this would suffice until the new bed arrives. It was a little on the small side but just big enough for her. That night she started barking and making noises constantly, I went down and told her no, and gave the command "Roxy Quiet, night night time". This then carried on until 3 in the morning when I gave in and let her sleep in our room. This has since occurred everynight now for 5 nights eventually giving in through lack of sleep.
Her comfy new bed has arrived but she is still barking like mad. Last night I didn't give in and just ignored her until about 3am when it became to much. I was so angry and tired but managed to contain myself and gave her a stern "quiet".
Am I doing the right thing just ignoring her, or is there somthing else I can do to help this along.
Thanks for your advice and help.
