14 year old Dauschund - barking at night

Question
I have a 14 year old male dauschund who is very attached to me. He has some incontinent issue with urination. I recently moved into a brand new house with my boyfriend who will not allow him to be in the bedroom at night with us either, loose or in a small crate.  I put him in his daytime crate in the laundry room and he will not stop barking.  I know he is scared and lonely and is use to being near me, which my boyfriend doesn't understand.  I have resorted to sleeping on the couch with the dog, because I need my rest and cannot listen to him bark and cry all night.  Please help.  What else can I do.

Answer
In theory, your boyfriend should understand the relationship you and the dog have had and accept that as part of who you are.

I would suggest bringing the crate into the room and the barking should stop.

Problem solved.


Good Luck!
