We adopted our lab mix puppy about 10 days ago. She was 8 weeks so about 9 now. She slept essentially through the night immediately, she just wanted let out around 4-5AM. I currently have her crate on a small table next to the bed and put my fingers in when she cries. This has progressively decreased but is still happening 1-2 times a night.
I have fairly intense anxiety, especially at night so I’m thankful she’s been so easy (knock on wood) but I know I’ll sleep 1,000 better once her crate is a little further away.
Should I wait until those checking whines fully cease before I start moving her progressively further away? It seems a little “all or nothing” considering it’s touch that makes her feel better (I can either reach her or not) and I’m definitely afraid of regression.
