On the weekends I get a 7:30 wake up call by Buddy!Quote:

Even if I let him out during the night twice, he STILL wakes up at 7:30 on the dot!
:rolleyes:
Occasionally they do. Depends on which dog. Most of the full-time house dogs don't. Preacher and Sleet have to be actually woken up and walked to the door or they'd never go outside most of the time!
Pingo needs out by 7am or she pees on the floor. Muskwa wakes us up if we try to sleep in past 9.
Generally, if it's the middle of the night, they wake us up having a Howl-fest or choir practice as we call it. It's a nice way to wake up reallly. They love to howl at the Northern Lights. There is a legend about the Rainbow Bridge for sled dogs. Part of it says that when a sled dog dies they get a silver harness to wear at the bridge. The reflection from that harness can be seen in the Northern Lights. I like to think the dogs are talking to Hoodoo when they howl at the lights. Since he passed away, i always make a point of stopping and talking to him when the lights are out.
Mandy wakes me up at least once or twice every night since I've had her. I suppose it has something to do with her bad heart. She fusses awhile and I love her awhile and she goes back to sleep. I never get mad. :) Lacey usually sleeps all night.
Snowy will wake me up once in a while when she sees something she wants to bark at or if she has to go outside.
I like that story. It's so sweet.Quote:

Sometimes he only goes out once, sometimes twice, but I can always count on getting up at the same time every morning. Millie never goes out. In fact, I have to wake her and tell her to go out in the morning.
I'm lucky though in that we have a pet door, so they just take themselves out! :p
Usually Chester wakes me wanting back under the covers. :)
Not usually, but once in a while.
Most of the time it's me waking up, and everyone following me the minute my toe hits the floor. Since we're up, I let everyone out to potty--Kito is usually too good to go out then.
I had to start removing collars before bed too--I couldn't believe how much better I slept without the jingling!!!!
Finn accidentally does with his tail wagging in my face or he gives me kisses at night and that will usually wake me up. ;)
Normally not. But the neighbours upstairs from me enjoy a nightlife, and when they came back in the ewe hours of the night, Rex barks, and when they bring some people with them, he makes a scandal.
He used to be my morning alarm, but since one time when I was dreaming of a serial killer, who stabbed women in the back, and in the dream I was in a room I knew the s.k. was hidden there, at that exaclty "scene" of the dream, I felt something in my back (in the dream it was the serial killer) but in reality, was Rex waking me up with his nose, sniffing my back. Boy, the way I screamed, scared Rex to death. Since then he never wakes me up anymore. Now he waits till I wake up by myself and never complains if I oversleep.
We went through a phase, notlong after we got Spot, that all the dogs wanted out everynight, about 3 am (what is it about that time?) Now it is pretty rare that they wake me up to go out...but on weekends, they still sometimes like to go out at 6:30 like they do during the week!
Mine sleep in with me. Normally when I get up in the morning (5:30 for school) they're still sleeping when I get out of the shower. Simba is normally right by the bathroom door waiting for me though. The girls are always snoozing.
