Zoie is a year old now and has started to wake uo at night. This has been going on for only a few weeks but I'm not sure why. She has always slept through the night. Now she gets up around 3 am and wants to go out. I have tried leaving her in the kennel beacuse I know she wants to be inside. I also take her out before I go to sleep (about 12am) and no water after 7:30pm. Please help, I'm tired.

My dogs sleep in their crates at night. Daisy started that "I want to go out" real early....."no, I really am not tired and want attention" routine at about the same age. At first I figure she might be coming in heat or she was dranking too much water. We were training in the evening, too. That ended when I just came down and put the bark collar on her and went back to bed. She goes out when I figure it is time, and I've slept well ever since. Of course she could have a temporary health issue, but usually it is a contest to see who is in charge. If your dog is sleeping "loose", for a few days just get up and stick her in a crate where you can't hear her and go back to bed.

I hear you Doc but I don't think that it is unnatral for a lab to want to be with the rest of her family. I am not sure where or why this behavior started but I can't seem to break it. I will keep trying.
