When night falls, it's as though he's transformed to a different Pepper altogether. Whines, whimpers, cries and barks like as though we've been abusing him.
I know young puppies are like that but it's so so so stressful to look after him. Was up the whole night and probably only managed 2 hours of sleep. I should think looking after a crying baby would be easier. Afterall, babies cry in the middle of the night when they are hungry but pepper makes a din every 1 or 2 hours for attention (I've fed, cleaned, played with him but he's still noisy). On top of that Pepper gets hungry and needs to be fed every 4 hours. I'm so stressed that even when I attempt to get some rest when he's asleep, I would close my eyes and keep worrying about what to do that I get a tummyache.
I tried telling him "NO!" very sternly whenever he whines but it'd only stop for a little. I tried putting a ticking alarm clock. At this rate, I'd go nuts. HELP. I'm so desperate that I'd try anything to keep him quiet. I feel like a mummy with post natal blues. *sobs* God please help me get through this. Any ideas to overcome this would be greatly appreciated.
