Hi,
I haven't been back to this forum in a while as I've been away from my computer however I wanted to write in about Bobby's strange behaviour recently. Bobby has slept the night in his crate since we got him four months ago and we've never had any problem. He goes to the bathroom at 11 and he doesn't wake until morning. However the night before last we awoke at 2am to Bobby crying and barking. I went down to him and let him out to check if he needed to go to the bathroom. Straight away he went outside and pooped (He had only gone a couple of hours ago). Then I put him back in his cage but he wouldn't settle. I tried to leave him cry for a little, then I tried putting him in our bed but he just wanted to play. Then I let him sleep on a rug in the kitchen and he still continued to bark and whine. Finally at 530 he went to sleep.
Next morning I left for work at 930 making sure he had gone to the toilet. I returned at 13.00 to find he had peed and pooed in the house. He never does this.
Then last night, the same thing started again. At 230 he awoke and started yelping. I let him out of his crate and he went to the bathroom but afterwards he wouldnt settle. However after an hour I put him back in his crate and he went to sleep until morning.
Any ideas? He's perfectly healthy. He's eating and drinking and is full of energy during the day. I'm wondering is he trying to tell us something. I'm just confused why this has started all of a sudden.
