I had a Cairn terrier & in the beginning it was more often taking him out. But I found if I could stay awake until 11 then he'd sleep until 5 am, but if I could only stay awake until 10 then he'd wake me up at 2 & 5. Finally he'd sleep through most of the night (he went outside, no pee pads, & we were in an apt building so I was happy when he finally slept...occassionally woke up at night later in life too)-us as humans wake up at night to go to the bathroom so why do we expect our dogs not to do the same? They have smaller bladders than us.
