We have a 6 month old puppy who wakes up from her crate at random times over the night crying- sometimes 2am, sometimes 4am. We have a neighbour with a health problem and it is waking her up and causing problems. When she wakes up, she does not need the toilet or water, she just gets up onto the sofa and falls back asleep. We have got her a bigger crate (thought space might be the issue). We have tried waking up before her, to get her used to us waking her up, but she just ends up getting earlier. We have tried letting her bark it out, but it didn't work and we can't anymore because of the neighbour.
We know we are being too soft and are rewarding her with letting her out, but we don't know what to do. We need a full night's sleep, please can anyone offer some advice.
