Sleepy Yorkies

[TeresaM]

Annie B was a very scheduled girl. Bedtime was 9p.m. and if you weren't headed to bed she'd stay up for a little while then she'd just go and get in bed by herself.

Our 3 know when Dad says "Bedtime" to head for the bedroom". Once in bed Gracie Ruth and Yogi want to play Bed Monsters for a few minuets before going to sleep. Bed Monsters is were you run your hand around under the covers and they attack and kill the monster until a new one shows up in a different spot. This is a must before going to bed and if Boo makes the mistake of getting under the covers during this game...well...any movement under the covers is fair game. He's learned to crawl in behind me so that I'm between him and those "pesky kids."

Lexi usually comes to bed with me. If I'm up late sometimes she'll go to bed by herself. Occationally she chooses to sleep else where, like on the couch, in her bed or in her kennel. She is not set into one routine.

[TurkletonsMom]

Turk stays up until 10-10:30. Once we say goodnight and shut the kitchen lights off(we keep 2 nightlights on for him), he knows it's bedtime.

Mine sleep pretty well
But one is a much better sleeper than the other
it's funny
when I go get them in the morning
they are both up
when they hear me coming but
Mike ... the one who likes to sleep you can tell is still bleary eyed
and is only up because his brother woke him

[Katylou]

Mine start to unwind and slow down (like the Slowsky turtles) about 7 PM. I hold and pet them, rub their bellies and heads and watch TV until about 8 PM and then I tuck them in. The youngest puppy still sleeps in her covered carrier and the elder puppy sleeps right tight next to me. After the youngest is spayed and healed I will let her sleep with me, too.

Molly usually goes into her bed when she sees me getting ready for bed, but then about an hour after the central heating goes off, she sneaks onto my bed and snuggles down for the night.

[Lolapup]

Our routine is pretty set in stone. Once I ask her "ready to go to bed?" she'll run for the bathroom. I brush my teeth and wash her face. She then darts in the bedroom and on to the bed. She'll race up down over and across me under the blanket. It's a game for me to chase her. Once I pin her and rub her belly she curls up to my chest and goes to sleep. She'll stay under the blankets all night long. She LOVES to cuddle

[KimberlySRN]

Suri goes to sleep at the same time as I do, but she sleeps in her crate. I tell her it is time to go nite nite and I open the crate door and tell her to get in.She loves her crate because she has a very comfy snuggle sack.

[LilMissy]

For the first couple of weeks that I had Missy she slept in her crate inside an ex-pen. Then she started to whine throughout the night, so I moved her to my bed. Since she's been in my bed, she sleeps through the night. I have to wake her up in the morning! And to think I was worried that I wouldn't get a decent sleep with her there. She sleeps better than me!
