We brought home a 9 week old lab/pointer exactly a week ago. He is obviously adorable & bringing lots of joy, but also a lot of work! My main struggle with with the nights. I am concerned about seperation anxiety etc so really don't want to cry it out with him, but I've been sleeping on a camp bed in the kitchen next to his crate for the last week, getting up every 2 hours & I am not happy! I did this with my babies for years & I'm feeling really stressed being in this position again. He is happy with his crate during the day, he just wants to check in several times during the night - I've managed to move my camp bed from right beside him to the other side of the kitchen, so we are making progress... I know it is to be expected but argh!
Happy to take advice/commiseration!
