So I picked up Presley, my dog, from my parents house yesterday. She has been staying there for a while because it was difficult to have her where I was staying. Anyway, I got her and took her to our new place and usually when she goes to a new place she tries to get away with things…just like a kid. She does not like sleeping in her crate at night so she tries to stay away from it as much as possible when it comes time for bed. I put her in the crate last night and right as I went upstairs and got in bed she started whining…and didn’t stop! I think I slept 2 hours total all night. Now don’t think any less of me when I say this but I have one of those training shock collars for her (she’s stubborn and it’s the only thing that works!) so today I’m getting new batteries for it and she’s wearing it tonight. The last time she did this whining business I put the collar on her and within a night or two she stopped and was fine. Let’s hope that happens again. I would love for her to be able to sleep in bed with me but when she does I don’t get any sleep…so to the crate she goes.
