When do they sleep through the nite?

[Athina]

I got Ruby at 5 months old and she has slept through the night since the first day i got her. She also sleeps with me.
Bella is 11 weeks old and she has slept through the night since she was 8 weeks old (except she gets up on her own to use the pee pad) but i don't really count that because she'll pee and run right back to her bed beside mine.

I paper trained Spikey. When we got him the 1st night, he woke up at 3 a.m. and cried. Then 2nd night, he slept till 5 a.m. He is 18 weeks now (4 months +) he goes to bed at 9 p.m. and wakes up at 6:30 a.m. on weekdays and 7:30 a.m. on weekend. He is our alarm clock, at 6:30 a.m. he will call my husband and wakes him up for his feed. I don't know if he wakes up in the middle of the night because he sleeps in his own bed and pees on the paper himself. We're very blessed to have him.

Sydney sleeps in her crate (with a sheet and a pillow of course) and she has slept through the night pretty much since we got her. She cried a little (maybe for a half hour) the first night. And for about the first month we had her she would wake up and cry if one of us went to the bathroom in the middle of the night. But other than that she is good about it. She will be 1 year in a couple of weeks and now most morning she doesn't want to get out of her bed (and that's after sleeping for 7 straight hours)

I guess I was lucky with that one...but then again...we have other problems

Thanks for all the answers! I am going to try and let her sleep with me all night, I am afraid that she will fall off since she likes to sleep on the bottom by my feet, I'll put a cushion there and hope for the best. The other problem is my 8 year old pom, who shas slept through the night since I got her, sleeps under my bed and doesn't like the puppy bothering her. I'll keep you posted.

my pups are 7 weeks and have just started sleeping through the night....I think...they sleep in the bathroom but use to cry several times anight now I don't here them until morning around 5 or 5:30 I assume they are sleeping!

[LIL MIS' MAGIC]

Sleep throught the night? What is that??

My girls are a year old now and Magic rarely sleeps through the night, she is up at least once to potty and sometimes twice....Sailor sleeps the night on most nights, but we always get up around 6am for some playtime, even on the weekends...urg!!

Keeley is a lazy little guy. When we first got him at 10 weeks, he would wake up around 8:30-9 am. And now that he is older he'll sleep in as late as possible. There are even mornings when he acts all put out if we wake him up "too early". He'll snort at us and go under the blankets.

But lately since he has been getting the pukies in the AM I have been waking him up about 5:30 to give him a little snack and then he goes right back to bed until our wake up time (usually around 9:30).

On the weekends we will sleep in until 11:00 sometimes, and he still out sleeps us.

The breeder told us that he loves his sleep at night and loves his play in the day. (He doesn't nap much durring the day).

It is funny how they all are so different. My parents are amazed that I found a dog that loved to sleep as much as I do. I love sleeping in when I can...

I don't want to scare you, but Lucky is two and she wakes me up anywhere from 2-4 times a night! If I take her out to go potty, she goes right back to sleep. If I don't, she will run around my room and paw at my bed until I give in and take her out. Then, when I have to get up for work, the little stinker stays in bed. She's so sassy, ya gotta love her.

Lily Mae is 5 months and basically sleeps until around 7 and then she is up.. I keep her crate at night
