I’ve gotten a total of 12 hours of sleep in a week because he keeps me up. He’s a beagle, so his screams are the loudest thing on the planet.

I love him so much. More than I love myself. But the lil dude is really infuriating me every night. He just wants me to hold him because he doesn’t feel good.

Last night he figured out how to open his crate from the inside, so I had to use a carabiner to make sure the door wouldn’t open.

I have to endure this for 3 more weeks because he’ll be on his antibiotic for that long.

Edit: y’all, I’m not actually mad at my dog. More frustrated at the situation and tired. Chill out

    I get that. It is a very US thing to do. I’ve never had dogs that haven’t like crates until now. I think my guy is just having issues now because of his antibiotic. He and my puppy were crate trained almost instantly because I made the crates into basically bedrooms for them. Comfy beds, toys, and bones are all in there for them. They honestly don’t sleep super well unless they’re in their crates. They nap outside of the crates, but it doesn’t seem to be actually super restful sleep.
