i have just realised I have not really been putting anything positive about Buddy. He is getting on very well apart from he early mornings. He loves his walks and gets very excited when he realises we are going out, he jumps up and down but is very calm once he has his coat on. He tried to chase a cat this morning and nearly had me over so I will have to be careful in future. When we get back from walks he stands still while I take his things off and dry his feet if they are wet. He is eating well but is still a bit too thin but I am giving him extra feed. He now lets the chihuahua walk underneath his legs when he is eating which is amazing. He now curls up by the radiator at the side of my chair when I am reading or watching tv. I am going to the kennels tomorrow to confirm that we are keeping him.

yes the heating goes off but he wears a warm coat. I understand he is used to company but I have never let any of my dogs over the last 30years sleep upstairs! I will try a few more nights with him downstairs and if he doesn't settle to a better routine then I may have to give in a let him sleep on the landing. Thanks for your comments.

Hi just a thought but can he hear neighbours etc going out at that time in the morning. We don't have this problem at home but do with Star when at my dads as they stay in the conservatory which is next to the driveway. She starts as soon as neighbour comes in or out (he works shifts). She sleeps thru til 7ish if my dad lets them sleep in the lounge which doesn't have a window towards the drive. Star will only bark at home if we go past about 9am but then if we go down to her fuss her she then goes to sleep on the sofa in the lounge (no access to this overnight). The bedroom trick does work if it suits the owner as we did this with our old lurcher. We also feed our two some biscuits after there bedtime walk as ours have learnt that eating from their bowl usually means they need to go to sleep. This may depend on your dogs digestive movements though! Could try a ticking clock too as suppose to mimic heartbeat sounds. Hope you find a solution soon.
