Hi Doghouse. I am exhausted and need help.

Ddog is coming up to 2 and has never slept through the night. He wakes between 1-6 and tells us he needs to go out (if we try and ignore him he'll wake the whole house up). We then go out, but some of the times he doesn't even bother peeing, just has a sniff about before wandering back in. He goes straight back to sleep when we're back in bed.

Dpup (9 months) however has slept through from day 1! She will wander out with him if he wakes her, but has never woke us herself.

I don't know what to do. We've tried feeding him later and earlier. Tried giving him a snack before bed, and not. He's super walked and entertained and challenged, he is one spoilt dog!

Help please Blush

Well the MN answer to all dog problems of sleeping in your room is not working Smile

I would be working on improving confidence and general independence. Also ceating value for his own bed to the point that he will not leave it if you leave the room.

I would also work on ignoring any action prompting from him in the day eg doing something to ask for attention or barking for attention etc. Then this can be used at night time and will have less reaction from him eg all the barking

It sounds like his has you very well trained.
