Sleeping

  • What age can I expect a longer night, i know nothing is set in stone but just looking for a guideline since we are new at this.

  • I will also try to keep her up a little later in the eve. Thanks!

    What age can I expect a longer night, i know nothing is set in stone but just looking for a guideline since we are new at this.

    That is a crap shoot…. there is no time line for that they are all different.... I can say however if that pup slept in bed with the human, my bet is would be sleeping longer. Not that you should use that as a solution unless you want a bed dog. Some are good sleepers, some are not. My first male was not a good sleeper and was always the first one up but then I do get up early... he would get up earlier....

  • We already have a 5yr old human in our bed. Lol. So I am trying not to add a puppy as well. My son was a terrible sleeper that's how he ended up with us. Wish me better luck with our little B girl. Maybe when she is potty trained she and my son can sleep together, haha.

  • I'd say she's doing well for a 9 week old puppy… Oakley is 15 months and has never been a great sleeper... It's rare I still don't get up once a night or early in the morning 5-6 to take him out, I wouldn't mind so much if i didn't have to walk him!

  • Yea I guess she is doing well for her age, i will be happy when she sleeps a little later.

  • My 9.5 week old pups are going to bed at about 9-10pm depending on how late I can keep them up. They then wake up at 3am for a potty break then up for good at about 6am. I am hoping that with the spring ahead on Sunday this will mean in bed by 10-11, pee break at 4am and sleep in til 7 am, at least on the weekends.

  • One can only hope right Lisa? Lol. How are the men in black boys… ?? Are you keeping them both? Would love to see pics!!

  • I am keeping one and the other is headed to Washington. I have been posting pics mostly on Facebook. Have several videos on my youtube channel.

  • I agree with everyone else. Your pup should go out to pee in the earrrrllly morning, around 1 or so? We let our boy sleep in our bed when we became comfortable knowing he wouldn't pee in bed at around 5 months. We took him home at 14 weeks. He now would like to sleep in until 9 am everyday but our new girl wakes him up around 7. Good luck!

  • Thank you for your input!

    You should share a photo of your mix. We'd all love to meet her.

    @Motala - That is good that you talked to Jan and glad to hear that she had not been spayed. I still think that your Vet and you should connect with Dr. Gonto about your girl's blood work and blood gas results and if he has any thoughts about it.

    Welcome aboard, but do share his registered name ? Who are Dad and Mom and what was his date of birth so we can be sure to add him to the Basenji pedigree on-line database (with a photo ???) for the world to share him. http://www.pedigrees.zandebasenjis.com/
