I am very pleased with my GSD’s behavior at 6 months old.
However, I do have one problem she is a very restless sleeper. She gets plenty of exercise during the day, but for whatever reason she does not sleep very well.
We keep her in a large wire crate that she shares with a Westie.
The problem is about half a dozen times through the night she wakes up and kicks her blankets around and plops herself down in the crate this makes quite a bit of racket and wakes my wife up (bad news for me). Any suggestions?
I thought about taking the westie out but they both seem to really enjoy the others company (prior to getting the GSD the westie slept with us)?
I thought about putting something in the crate at night to limit how much she can move around but not sure that will help either.
Thanks for any suggestions.
