Our rescue dog arrived yesterday. He's 1 yr old and doing so well. Last night, his first night, I took him upstairs with me to sleep, our cats are shut downstairs overnight so the dog needs to be upstairs. He wouldn't settle in his crate or bed, he jumped up on the bed and curled up in a ball and slept soundly until 6.30am. I then took him outside and he did a wee and poo (yay!)
I'm not sure if I'm making a rod for my own back and whether tonight I should be firmer about him going in his own bed, but I would probably have to shut him on the landing where the bed and crate are which seems cruel. Any advice, hints or tips very gratefully received!
