Forum Rules | 1. Here we prefer clarity to agreement. Obviously not everyone is going to agree on a topic; here we prefer to talk out our differences in a respectful manner to ensure mutual understanding and respect. 2. Read the Stickies and Announcements. Each sub-forum may have specific rules which trump the Forum Rules in cases where there may be conflicting information. Read the rules of each board before you post so that you are clear on the expectations of the staff. 3. Respect ALL Staff and Admins. These people volunteer of their time and MUST be respected as well as their word adhered to. They are responsible for maintaining a free, open, clear and organized forum. Anyone found to be openly undermining any official ruling by a staff member will be warned. 4. Signatures: One picture only and no links. Images: To keep the forum looking neat and tidy, we ask that members insert just one picture only in their signatures. The picture should be no more than 200x500 pixels and should be of an appropriate subject, for example, your dogs and their names. Should you need assistance creating an appropriate signature, please PM an Admin and we would be happy to help! This is to ensure that signatures remain a welcome addition to our forum instead of a cumbersome distraction. Links: Hyperlinks in signatures--unless to a personal blog or photo stream of your dogs (like Flckr or Piscasa, for example)--are strictly prohibited. Please PM a staff member with any questions or concerns regarding this rule. |

| We made it 3.5 hours between potty breaks last night. Only one trip out, that was NICE! |

| Very nice! I remember I was excited too when I had to get up until 5:30am as opposed to every hour |

| If she keeps improving at this rate I'll be able to sleep all night before to long. That will be a nice little treat. |

| Are you keeping her up a lot during the day? Mishka is up and will play for a while then he will sleep for a couple of hours and do it all over again. I'm worried this is making him not sleep well at night. Though last night was far better than the first night. _________________ |

I have never forced her to stay up during the day. She's a baby and babies need to sleep. I started out by taking her out every 2 hours at night (cutting off her water at least 2 hours before bed). Once I made she she was able to make it 2 hours without an accident I increased the time by 30 minutes. We have had her for 11 days and she is up to 3.5 to 4 hours a night now. Once we got through the first 3 nights of her screaming and howling she progressed really fast. She hated the crate and being alone at first. Now she doesn't mind it at all. I'll put her in at night and she will lay right down. I do give her a few toys at night (her hedgehog is her favorite bedtime toy). That keeps her busy between potty breaks. |

We usually go to bed at 10pm and are up at 6am (5 days a week). I would be really happy with that. lol! At the rate Peaches is going I don't think it will be to far off, I hope! |

| I would be ecstatic if Mishka slept 10-7. I'm up at 5:30am anyway getting ready for work during the week. Lol. _________________ |

| I took Karli out at midnight every night til she was about 5 months old. At that point she could hold it all night as long as my hubby got up at six and let her out before he went to work. She never had an accident in her crate but there were mornings I'd wake up to hear her whining to be let out. Its a nice feeling to not have to get up anymore! |
