The Dog Can Continue Living... For Now
After the debacle that was Saturday morning in which he woke the entire house up with his barking and scratching at my little brother's door at 5 AM, he was much better Sunday morning and this morning. I kept him up late Saturday night when Seth and his girlfriend came over. Seth loves Keyser, and Keyser loves Seth. So basically Seth wore him out and when the pup finally passed out while we played Scene It I kept waking him up. Mean? Maybe. But he slept until about 6:30 or 7 AM on Sunday morning, much better than he's been recently.
Sunday he was his usual lazy self and crawled into bed with me at about 8 PM and was out cold by the time The Sopranos came on. He woke up twice in the middle of the night to go to the bathroom. The first I don't even remember, but the second was at 4:30 and I thought I was going to have to kill him again, because I had a strong feeling that he wasn't going to go back to bed. But, thankfully, he proved me wrong and he let me sleep a good hour more. I usually wake up at around 6 AM anyway to get ready for work, so 5:30 isn't so bad as compared to the 4:30 last week.
If he wasn't so damn cute, he'd have been looking for a new home a long time ago! Or if I was really being cruel, I'd have let my ex-girlfriend have him. I don't know who that would be more cruel to, her or Keyser.

Have you tried taking him for a long walk at night? It usually helps my dog sleep a little longer.
