QA is looking for saves for this issue.- 6 years ago
Hello,
I have been having this issue, pretty similar experience as the other, removing CC doesn't change it. It doesn't happen on every game. My game is updated so I guess it hasn't been fixed. I don't know if anyone sent their save files, so here ismine :

I've never done this before, I'm sorry if it isn't the right way.

I just made a new game and both my dogs are doing this. I'm on PC and I don't have any mods so I don't understand why they're broken ☹️
- crinrict5 years agoHero+@Anya_The_Rager Could you send your save to EA as per this post: https://answers.ea.com/t5/Bug-Reports/OPEN-CD-Dogs-stays-awake-all-night-collapse-several-times/m-p/8015676#M96970

Idk if this helps but I gotten this glitch ever since a update in 2019 before that update cats and dogs would either sleep at night or go around doing other things while your sim is asleep but after the update both cats and dogs will try and go to sleep on either a bed or couch and then jump off once the game speeds up and then just stand there all night. Once the human sims wake up they will become unstuck and go about doing what they normally do.

I don't know if any of my current save games has this problem, but it's so common for me I'd say it happens at least 50% of the time to my pets. They usually spend a lot of the day sleeping in my games.
That's been when I am playing on Xbox, desktop, laptop, with or without CC. So I have no idea what the common denominator is for me.
