One week later and we’ve started to establish some routines.
We had a couple of horrible nights where a small dog decided to howl at 3am and then again at 6am. Combined with several days of rain, tempers were frayed and discussions about dog training ensued. Luckily we read copious amounts of information on the internet and discovered that playtime in the evening was the answer.
And so with evening playtime established, by 9pm we have a tired puppy asleep on the rug and happily tucked up in bed in the kitchen by 10pm.

This morning we got up at 7:15am and Agnes was quietly sitting in her bed waiting for us to get up. So that’s one challenge solved.
House training though… now that’s another story!
