Problems With Our Dog Getting Us Up At Night

[Trishlicious]

I don't know if anyone can help but we have a cavalier king charles (you might beable to tell that from the pic lol). Well she is driving us mad recently. She gets us up to go in the garden every night without fail. I don't hear her but my dh is so tired now (think I am on the kids wave length so not tuned in to the dog). She goes for a walk last thing before bed every night, even then we put her in the garden very very last thing to be sure but she still wants to go out again in the night. She gets lots of attention as we have made sure of that since having children. We really don't know what else it could be. Thinking of taking her to the vet for some advice but it doesn't really seem medical so not sure (her jabs are due in May so I guess we could ask then)

Any help would be appreciated thanks.

Just a couple of THoughts- How old is she, and have you tried cutting down on her water at night?

we sometimes have problems with Max (our weimaraner) but that is usually becuase I have fallen asleep with DD, so not let him out for his 11 o'clock garden time. He is a good boy though and only goes on the lino when he has to.

Well as you know Trish we have the same type. He is a lot younger though. It could maybe be a weak bladder. Would it be worth putting some newspaper down at night to see if she would go on there? If its something that has recently started it could also be caused by a water infection. I would take her to the vets to get checked for this to start with tbh.
