i took all my pups to bed for the first week, and i mean in my bed then on the scond week i gave them there own bed in my room and they have always slept there. good thing about it was i got them house trained very quick as they would wake me in the night for a pee and i would take them outsid,e and as i made shore they only went outside in the day (aside from the odd accident)they never thought of the house as a toliet. i would not worry about nextdoor. just say hay its pup. hot water bottle in a blanket, ticking clock , lots of stuffed toys.
