Puppies that keep changing places to sleep may be caused by a lack of security, temperature changes, physical discomfort, etc. First of all, after a puppy arrives in a new environment, he will be very wary of everything around him and will often change places to sleep. Secondly, when the weather is cold, if the dog feels that the place where it sleeps is cold and damp, it will change to a warm place to sleep. On the contrary, when the weather is hot, it will change to a cool place to sleep. Finally, if your dog is in pain and discomfort, he will often change places to sleep.

At this time, they usually choose to sleep in a corner of the house or under the bed or table. At this time, the owner should not force the puppy to sleep at a certain time, but should give the puppy enough time to slowly adapt to the new environment. In addition, you can also spend more time with your dog, which will make your dog feel more secure.

Dogs are very sensitive to temperature. In winter, if they feel that the place where they sleep is damp and cold, they will look for a warm place to sleep. . In the summer, due to the hot weather, it will find a cool and comfortable place to sleep. Therefore, owners must pay attention to temperature changes, especially in winter and summer, and pay attention to cooling and keeping their dogs warm.
