While "sleep on command" sounds kind of odd, I know what you mean.
Both my pups sleep with me, and the rule is that bed is a place to sleep, not play. They know that if they're too wound up and won't settle within a few minutes, they don't get to sleep in the bed.
Coby goes to his kennel on command (usually before a command as he knows when I'm leaving for work, or putting my coat on).
In fact, both dogs are waiting for me at the stairs.... "Mom! It's time for bed!" |
