I think they sleep when tired. So apart from playing with him till bed time not a lot you can do really. Maybe a walk close to bed time may help Big Grin

I found at that age a bit of retrieve play or tug of war tired Bacchus out. It doesn't take much to tire them when they are so young.
If you mean he won't settle in his sleep area at bed time, you may need to use tough love and just let him cry, providing he has been toileted etc. but you will probably still have to toilet him around 3am to 4am if you don't want accidents.

When they can go out it will really help, you can try search games and basic training to tire them Smile

Although young some basic training time, like sit, stay, down etc will help to tire them out too.
