My dog (pocket dog) keeps on waking me up at around 2 or 3 in the morning as soon as he woke up. What should i do to keep him from doing so?

Tyson is very young still so it may be that he is waking you up because he needs to go outside and go potty. You may need to make a routine of taking him out once or twice at night until he is older and can hold it the entire night. If he's just restless, a good play session followed by a potty break right before bed can help tire him out enough to sleep through the night.
