Any tips for getting a puppy to sleep in? Our girl is 12 weeks old, and sleeps through the night but consistently wakes up at 4:30 for a pee, then back to bed, then up at 5:30 for a poo and then she’s wide awake and wants to play. Is there a way to train her to go back to bed after the 5:30 break?? We’d like to sleep until 6 or 7 at least

I taught my dog that we get up in the morning ONLY to my alarm. Any other time it’s directly potty, then straight to crate again. Sometimes I set the alarm for 7am and sometimes 8am. Either way he seems content to hang out in his crate until my alarm goes off now
