Puppy sleep

[Nix32]

Our puppy is 13 weeks old. Currently sleeps in a crate in our room. He seems to be in a habit of waking at around 4am and I'd really like to break it. I take him outside and he'll then settle on our bed for another hour or two. Frustratingly, he has done a couple of nights through until 6am, so I know he can do it.

Any suggestions?

Increase the number and quality of walks per day, but not immediately, but gradually. Do the last walk as late as possible. Right before bed.

Thank you - we seem to have cracked it!

Late walks are good advice. In general, really focus on being more fatigued so the dog sleeps longer. It will not do without training. The puppy should now adapt to you.
