Anyway, I leave a 4am. I get up at two, get the food out, play for an hour, put him in his crate and go to work..... he does his thing all day with his mom, but checks the door every hour or so. he does not want to nap at all...or eat. just waits for me to come home. when i get home around seven, he plays a bit, eat a bit, then chills.... then mom has to sleep. im exhausted, but i do my best to let her sleep early. he cant stand it. now he wants her to be awake. he just does not want her to sleep now. he wants us both together, awake at the same time. impossible... so how do we deal? mommy and i take turns pretty well, but dickie wants us at the same time. any ideas?
he is a great boy otherwise. he wont rest if im not here, and wont rest when his mom is not around... if we are both here and alert, he passes out between us. his crate, which he loves, does not work...
im hoping normal yorkie parents reply. im at a loss |
Normal Yorkie Parents... yeah, right! (JK)
Have you tried going to bed together with him? (stay awake till he falls asleep) Many Yorkies end up sleeping with their Moms and Dads.
It may be his 'pack' mentality. It's just not right in his mind if one is missing. When you're both together, this feels best (or normal) to him, and he finally relaxes and passes out.
