Joseph Ciamarro Webboard User Reg: 12-07-2004 Posts: 8 Loc: Offline	hi, my cocker is house broken. She sleeps at night in a crate beside my bed, ever since she was a puppy she would whimper when she needed to go outside to releive herself. She is now 6 months old and still whimpers at times at night to go outside, but now 95% of the time she will do her business and the other 5% she just wants to play. When should I start ignoring her so that she sleeps through the night? Is ignoring her the answer? I try as much as possible to make her releive herself before we go to bed, but that helps only sometimes. joseph

Something to rule out is the possibility of a UTI. That can cause a dog to not be able to hold it's urine for very long. Pain heals. Chicks dig scars.

If the dog whimpers - ignore it - it may take a while at this point for your dog to get the message that you wont be taking her out. If the whimpering bothers you put the dog in a different room.
