My Chi, Piper is about 5 months now. While I am working hard on the crate training, over night is very difficult. She howls and cries all night. I can't get any sleep. However if I put her on my bed, she zonks out for hours. Last night, for example, she zonked out from 1 am till about 1030. She didn't have any accidents. However, when we woke, I knew she wouldn't make it outside, so I put her on a wee wee pad and she peed. She had alot stored, but she made it all those hours without an accident.
I'm going to upload some pictures later today of Piper and my son. He's 3 yrs old and they are so attached.
