Do your babies sleep through the night? - YorkieTalk.com Forums

Do your babies sleep through the night? If not, do they go potty (if pee pad trained) in the middle of the night? What time do you take the water away at night? Bailey keeps me up at night because he just won't sleep through the night and when he does wake up he has to pee. I'm thinking he's not getting enough exercise...

My babies do sleep thru the night. They sleep in their crates. I never cut off water. When they get up in the morning they fly outside to pee-pee

They usually sleep from about 11 till around 7 or 8 am.

I have 2 yorkies who are 9 months old & they sleep through the night (most of the time). It took a while to get them to that point. They are bigger yorkies at 9.5 & 11.5 pounds. I used to take their water dishes away around 8:00 at night & that helped (bedtime is around 10pm & they usually wake up around 6:30AM or so). I do not use pee pads because all they did was tear them up. They go potty outside. Now I keep the water dishes down all the time & I keep water down in their play room where they sleep. We moved them into the basement because they would wake up at any random noises (house pops/cracks at night, one of us getting up to go to the bathroom or get a drink of water, rain, etc), so we moved them into the basement & it worked for us. I got very stressed for a while when they didn't sleep through the night so I know how you feel if your sleep is getting disrupted!

I have and Pixie got into the habit of waking up every few hours because my pom (RIP) had Cushings and woke up all through the night. Maya has been gone since February and no matter how much I try I cannot get Pixie to stop waking me up. I haven't slept thru the night in years. The other 2 would sleep through the night but get up because Pixie does.

Misty is my 2 3/4 yr old Yorkie. She sleeps through the night and stays in bed with me until I get up. Then she goes to the pee pad and does her business. I try to get her outside a couple times during the day. I also have Mazie, a 13 yr old English Cocker Spaniel. She also sleeps through the night and until I get up. When I get up, I get her outside to go potty. Cassie a 11 week Maltese has to bite and chew on my hands and arms and takes forever to go to sleep. But when she does she sleeps for a while then gets up and goes down the steps to use the wee pad then she sleeps until she thinks I have slept enough and then wakes me up.

My 4 month old Bailey never wakes me up anymore, he is kept in a Xpen and if he wakes up to pee, take a drink of water or have some food, he will go back to sleep afterward.

Arzel36 · 07-31-2009, 03:55 PM

First, I never take the water away. And I get CoCoa B. up twice @night 2 go potty.

kalina82 · 07-31-2009, 04:04 PM

Morgan has slept thru the entire night since she was 5 months old and will wait for me to get up (which on the weekends may not be till 11-12 o'clock). Between 4-5 months old i'd say she was waking up at 5 or 6 am for me to take her outside to potty. She's now 3 years old and will wait until i take her out no matter what the time is.

Edit: i also never took morgan's water away at night. She had a water bottle attached to her crate at all times.

Niyah usually sleeps through the night unless she didn't poop that day. Like this morning, she got me up at 5 am and I took her out. She is so good letting me know when she has to go. She walks back and forth on the bed to let me know. That is the first thing that came to my mind when I woke up to her walking back and forth on the bed. I usually have her sleep in her kennel but last night she slept with me.

MaddieBoo · 07-31-2009, 04:36 PM

Lucas sleeps through the night, but he does get up early (6 or 7) to go out, then usually comes back to bed

Britster · 07-31-2009, 04:37 PM

Jackson sleeps through the night in my bed and has since he was about 16 weeks old in my bed.

Although lately he's been waking up wayyy earlier than usual at 6-6:15am and I hate it! lol. He will go back to bed though.
He's outdoor trained.

Karrie · 07-31-2009, 04:44 PM

Bailey sleeps through the night - and pretty much always has. That said, we get up at 5;30 every am (including weekends to keep on schedule) to pee and eat. On the weekends, we go back to bed

Juicy sleeps through the whole night and wakes up when I get up which is sometimes late(11-12). When we stay with my boyfriend, Juicy wakes him up at 8 each morning. She is a funny little one.

charly · 07-31-2009, 04:54 PM

Rockies my alarm clock at 6:30a.m. to get up for work everyday mon-fri

he potties on his wee wee pad throughout the night. He very rarely wakes my daughter or myself. His water bowl stays in his x pen, I 've taken it up a couple times but usually its in his x pen.
