| Is your Yorkie a Sleep-In'er or Early Riser? Jackson loves to sleep in, as do I He's definitely on my "college student schedule". Probably about two days a week, we sleep until at least 11am. I let him out around midnight usually.... my mom, sister, and stepdad all leave around 9am and Jackson just snoozes through all the commotion... lol. Most other mornings we are up around 9am. But every morning I wake up to him all sprawled out next to me, his head laying on the pillow next to me and I have to wake him up... and he's VERY slow about it... looongggg stretch, a couple yawns, belly rubs, before actually getting up. He's okay with getting up early if we have to, though... sometimes when we are dogsitting, I have to get up at 6am and we'll go for a long walk that early and he's up for it, but in general... he likes to SLEEP IN!!

| ZoE's an early riser. She wants to eat her breakfast around 6:30 every morning...weekends included. If there's a way to train her to be a sleep-in'er on weekends and days off, I'd love to hear about it!

| Teddy is up before the sun, sitting at his window. Argh! Before Teddy came along, Max allowed me to sleep up until 9 am, if I wanted. Both of the boys want their breakfast and morning walk early.

| Callie is kinda both. If she hears my grandpa up sometimes she likes to get up early at 6:00 with him and he will hear her paw the door and let her out and she will go lay in her doggie bed near his chair and he will cover her up with her blankie and she sleeps while he drinks coffee and reads the paper. But must of the time we both wake up around 10 and she will come out of her soft doggie house stretch really big on the way to the door and maybe do one more stretch when she gets out of the door into the hallway and sticks her head in my grandparents room to see if they are in there if not continues to to living room. If we have to get up early she is like me hard to get moving lol I have actually had to unvelcro the top of her house and say hey little miss lazy time to get going and I keep bugging her till she gets up

Donating YT 500 Club Member | Taycie wants her morning potty time and breakfast... Then she will go back to bed and sleep to 9 or 10.. But she has to have her breakfast at 7! During the work week I have to pry her out of bed to go to work, or she would sleep in

| Ahi LOVES to sleep in. On school days she reluctantly gets up because i'm not in the room with her. I'm getting the kids ready for school so she seeks me out. If it's the weekend and we have nothing to do, she will sleep next to me till I get up. My hubby tries to play with her before he goes to work everyday and that's right before 4am! She will look at him like.."really daddy?" LOL

| I have two early risers. We get up at 5am M-F because DH has to be at work by 6am. They hit the kitchen wide open for their breakfast and after DH leaves they pile up on their bed on the loveseat and sleep until I leave for work at 7:45. I think they sleep the majority of the day when we are at work, because they are wide open from the minute I get home in the evening at 4:30pm until about 10pm when they crash again.

| Sassy wakes me up between 2:30 am-3:30 am, jumping at the gate, then she gets the 3 others to help her, she can't stand for me to be away from her too long.

| I wish Bailey was a late riser. During the week, we wake her up and she always gives us this face like, "This AINT happen right now!" Her face all poofy from sleeping. During the weekend shes up at 7ish. I would LOVE for her to sleep in. But then she comes in after potty, goes to sleep till 11, then walk, then sleep till 3, then up the rest of the day! |

| As i sit here typing, maddie is sleeping next to me under her blanket. she usually comes outta the bedroom about a hour after i get up, only to want under the blanket on the couch and sleeps a couple more hours. she will then get up go outside and take care of business, eat some breakfast and go back to bed for a few more hours. Dh and i said shes like a toddler. same thing happens in the evening, when its past her bedtime (9ish) she just zonks out wherever she is and you have to carry her to bed, if shes not already there. Shes gotta tuff life!

| Sophie Kate is an early riser, usually just a potty break but by 6:30 am at the latest. Usually she will go back to sleep for a few hours but I just stay up, unlike her once I am up I stay up.
