Hi everyone
Hobson is nearly 10 weeks old and I am looking for some advice. Has anyone got any tips for getting a puppy to sleep through the night. This is what we are currently doing: playing with him to tire him out then calming him down taking him out for the toilet then taking him to his pen settling him down he has one of my old t-shirts and waiting until he is asleep before going up to bed, once asleep he will sleep until about 4am, after this time he will not settle and cries and barks unless i take him into the lounge and then he will lay on the sofa with me and sleep for hours but I cant continue to do this as I am back at work next week and need to get a full nights sleep to function properly. My husband and my daughter both work 4 days a week and are shift workers which means that although he wont be left alone for long he will have to spend some time alone. I tried popping out to the shops the other day and he barked the whole time i was out. Any advice would be greatly appreciated thank you.
