Baby puppies, sick doggies, older doggies all do a number on the sleep routine. Between Goldie's old age (and last sickness) and Luci's baby puppyhood, I hadn't gotten a good nights sleep in, oh, 2 years. When Blacky was a baby puppy, I was just as sleep deprived as my Baby Sister who had a newborn. We would compare sleep deprivation stories. It doesn't make you a bad mom, it makes you human. You wouldn't believe some of the things I've said when I've been sleep deprived and stressed over a baby puppy/sick doggie. Cody will get better soon. You'll get caught up on your sleep. And you might even just look back on this time and smile . . .
