Actually today was the first day he went to sleep on his own. He was out of the kennel and not on my lap. He did get up on the sofa and lay down next to me but didn't climb on top of me. He just laid down next to me and went to sleep. When I got up he didn't follow. I cleaned up around the house but stayed where he could see me. He slept a good 2 hours! Hooray! Thanks for asking.lovely photos, hows Jixar doing with his sleeping now
