I'd put cookies in my bed side table. When I was about to go to bed, earlier than my boyfriend, I'd have one of those smelly cookies hidden in my hand to try to lure one or more of the dogs into the bedroom with me. All's fair in love and dogs!
When my first IG was a puppy, I'd get home from work and have to entertain her for a couple hours, she had so much pent up energy. She's crash, then I'd wake her before bed to go out. No way did she want to go to bed, she was ready to play again! I started getting her to go to the bedroom with a "bedtime snack." She is 15 years old now and still runs to the bedroom and waits on the bed for her snack. And I still think it's the cutest thing. All my dogs do this.
