Puppies and dogs can be taught to sleep in their own beds, starting with crate training. But if you like to cuddle with your dog, there's usually no harm in letting the dog sleep with you. Photo: TNS/ Dreamstime
Dear Joan: My adult daughter is struggling with sleep deprivation because her new four-month-old puppy won’t let her sleep through the night. Any tips?
She and her husband got a puppy a few days ago from a rescue group where the pup was used to sleeping in a crate with the rest of the litter. The pup wouldn’t sleep in its crate at its new home and barked and whined at night. So my daughter brought the puppy to her bed where he snuggled and bumped against her head all night.
