What time does your dog wake you up?

[wolf_Q]

Just curious. Dogs seem to have an internal clock, and know just when to wake people up when it's the most annoying, lol.

My dogs: Smokey wakes up around 2:00, 5:00, 7:00.....he has to pee ALL the time at night. Of course he never eats during the day, but he wants to eat in the middle of the night. I completely sleep through his barking, so my poor mother has to deal with him. He seems to wake up more and more as he gets older. Last night I slept downstairs, so I actually heard him....I let him out at 5:00 a.m. and not 5 minutes after I put him back in his kennel, he began to bark. Well, that dog barked for over 4 hours straight, lol, and I slept through it...

Reggie..around 6:30-7:00, and sometimes he decides he wants out when Smokey gets let out. If he sleeps outside of his kennel, and in my room, he will sleep the entire time until I get up.

Nebo will sleep as long as I sleep. He is great! He just snoozes away in that kennel and I can sleep in....half the time he's still asleep when I get up. And my mom said I'd never get to sleep in if I got a dog. Ha ha. If I'm not in my room with him he will wake up earlier though.

Smudge wil let me sleep for as long as I want if it's just him and me. Winter on the other hand will usually wake me up between 8:30 and 9:30 on the weekends and 6:30 and 7:30 during the week...it's hard to sleep when you have a boarder collie jumping on and off the bedand because she's doing it Smudge will usually get up and start doing the same thing or sit at the door and stare at me until I do get up.

Malone is pretty good about it, too. We usually get up around 6:30, and take our showers etc. Then when we come back to the bedroom to get dressed, he starts to stir and look up at us with these big soulful eyes as if to say "I'm trying to be so good in here, please can I come out now??"

Smokey will sleep as long as I do on my weekends.
During the week I have to wake him up between 4:30 and 5am cuz I leave for work at 5:10.
Lucky pup gets to just go back to sleep in his crate, though.

Teddy sleeps all night. Lucky mom!

Chewy if in his crate 6:30 is all the longer he can stand to be in there unless I get out the squirt bottle, which I usually do so I can have an extra half hour of sleep When he is in bed with me, yea I know I failed as a mother my puppy sleeps in my bed but he goes crazy in his crate and pants and stuff anf looks like he is going to die I'm just a big softie for my babies eyes O back on topic, when Chewy sleeps on my bed usually he will sleep into 7:15 on the week days and untill he hears Teddy barking. I always slept through it till now, I wake up the second Chewy whins and I'm like what what what happened. I think its cause he is my little guard doggie, someone brakes in and I have to wake up to the sound of his tail thumping on the floor

Jo gets up when I do, unless dad gets up and feeds them. Zeke sleeps in the kitchen, so I duno bout him lol

Katie usually sleeps til anywhere from midnight - 3 in my room (when she sleeps in my room she hasn't been doing that very often) then she'll go sleep with Mom and Dad.

If I don't hafta get up at 3 to work then Bull will sleep til about 6 when everyone else in the house (except me) but if I have to work at 3 then he'll lay in there alone til about 4 then go sleep on the dog bed in the den.

Around here, it isn't the dogs, it's the cats!!! Either Mimii on my head, "loving me", or Butter banging on the blinds to get out!!!

He is a handfull, for sure!!!!

Preacher sleeps in later than I do. He gives me a look of pure disgust when I get up..He has the most amazing bladder control ever. Muskwa wants out at 7am. Earle will sleep til he thinks we are awake. Goldie won't come in our bedroom, although she is more than welcome to. She generally lays on the doggy bed in the porch until someone moves, then she whines to go out. Hoodoo and Bandit rarely make a full night in the house, they get way too hot. And generally Sleet will sleep until I get up. But sometimes she gets thristy. She's afraid of walking into the kitchen--lino and tile floors freak her right out. So she has to go outside for her water dish.

Both of my dogs and my cat stay snuggled in bed with me until I wake up, no matter how late I sometimes get to sleep in

My husband sets the alarm for 6AM weekdays and always hits the snooze. Buddy & Abby don't move til the 2nd time the alarm goes off! They jump up and go wait by the door - they stay out about 15min. and go back to bed till I up.

Deisel and Phoebe sleep until we do on weekdays and weekends!

[KYS]

We each have our own alarm dog clocks. lol
Pepper is a light sleeper and wakes my husband up for work around 5:30 a.m.
Rocky wakes me up for work around 6:30 a.m.
and I wake Sheba up around 7:00 a.m. so
I can feed all the dogs.

[ownerof3dogs]

My dogs let me sleep as long as I want... except when they really have to go.

Roxey is my alarm clock, she wakes me up at almost the same time everyday, 6:30 (but I don't work until 11 or 11:30 )
Mark leaves for work at 6, so I don't quite understand why her internal clock is set for 6:30. She always jumps on the side of the bed & lays the top half of her body beside me. If I ignore her, she'll root under the covers & in my hair until I pay attention to her. But she never wants out right away, she wants me to love on her for a little while first I feel like a mother with her child, if she moves around at all, I wake up.
Angus, he could sleep forever! He gets up when I do during the week, but on the weekends when Mark is home, he'll stay in bed with him!
And Huney, who knows, I think she would sleep till I got up (but thanks to Roxey, we'll never know!).
