Default night-time whinine

Help - my 9 year-old border collie has just started night-time whining. This is especially bad on snowy nights, as salt trucks with lights go up and down our street. Sometimes he gets me up 4-5 times/night - and as you can guess, this is not going over well. No other changes in his diet, exercise, etc.
I sometimes resort to valium at bedtime, but don't want to continue this!
Suggestions??? Sue

Okay first, we need a bit more info. Your dog wakes you up, what do you do? My first thing would be take it out, make sure that is not the reason. Then, I would not, comfort the dog, that makes the whining a thing that is good.

So, your dog is whining because of more stuff going on outside, you wake up, and hate it, and then? What? If you want to fix a behavior, you have to give all the details, what happens, what you do, and the results.
