unless it is real....and I mean real don't. flights that are transatlantic have unique rules for all dogs. As a Special Ed teacher fake service and support dogs hurt a lot of people with real needa.
Who's got a morning dog?
-
My dogs HAVE to be morning dogs - the funny part is when my daughters B needs to stay with me when she works long hours (the daughter not the dog). Then my daughter thanks me soooooo much for making her laid back sleep in B into a 5:30 AM perky lets get going dog!

Magnum will sleep in 'til he gets the notion that I'm leaving the house. I swear that boy can hold it forever.
On the days I go into the office, he doesn't get his lazy butt up 'til I brush my teeth (that seems to be his cue that I'll be leaving soon, even though I brush my teeth at various times during the day to try and fool him).
On the days I work from home, he stays cuddled up in bed (even when I brush my teeth…how does he know? I get up later those days...does he know how to tell time?) 'til "the need" drives him to look for me and let him out. I don't really do anything different those days except get up a little later.
I swear he's the smartest dog I've ever had. I'm always asking myself "HOW DOES HE KNOW?" I can't seem to get the better of him. He just KNOWS.

I agree, I think Bs are the smartest dogs out there. They just know so much, and can figure things out, and are always a step ahead of their slaves, unless you are moving fast. haha!! My B, Sahara, is a morning girl, she gets up when I do, she follows me around (6:30) when I have to work, and lays down wherever I am, in the kitchen when I get the coffee on, then on the bed in guest room where my small bathroom is that I claim as my personal bathroom for getting ready to go out. She will stay and go back to sleep until I move, if I move, she moves. While I get her food ready she will go to her doggie door poke her head out and look around to see what is happening in her neck of the woods. I need to get a picture of that to post, it is so funny, all you see is that curly tail on the inside. She goes outside eventually to potty and its back to see if Mom is leaving. When I am ready I say, "Sahara Mommy is going to work". She follows me to the car, tries to pull on my sleeve to stay, (working on stopping this behavior, getting better). She makes a B run around the house, stops at my car and I say, I'll be back baby girl". She watches me leave and that's it until I get home, sometimes if it is raining she will quickly go back in to see Daddy. I can say, "Go see Daddy", and she will go back in the house. She is the smartest thing, I work only part-time, on days I am home we sleep until 9. She always seems to know when it is a work day even thou I work different days each week.

Garrett is so not a morning dog and I love it! He usually sleeps in till around noon. Then he crawls out of bed rubs his face on the carpet with his butt up in the air, jumps up, twirls, and streches. Then after that its off to the patio to lay in the sun for a few hours. This dog knows how to relax like a pro hah!
he's a dog bed lover too. He gets so excited when we bring home a new dog bed. B's are such funny dogs -
Morning dog what's that? LOL
Tiggy seems to enjoy snooze just as much as I do, and don't even think of trying to get the boxer up, lol that's like trying to move a 70lbs of dead weight

Hollie's a morning dog (she HAS to go to work), unless it's a weekend. She will get me up to take her out, but once back inside it's back to bed with daddy until he gets up!!!
-
Lenny is a morning dog. He will come to the bed, stand on his back legs with his front paws on the edge of the bed and alternately tap them to wake me up. its quite funny…
tayda is not a morning or an evening dog. she would sleep all day if i let her... she's more of a mealtime dog. ha ha.

Ok so just in the last few days, Lenny and Tayda have turned into 3-4am dogs. They both get up and shake shake shake and smack their lips and scratch at their beds and generally just make a lot of noise! I don't know what happened! I hope it stops soon.

Do you think they sense some kind of insecurity in their entirely new environment to "go outside"? I do hope they settle with you soon, if that is the case.

I should mention - that Duke and Daisy wait dutifully till I get out of bed to wake up in the morning. My DH kindly covers them with sleep shirt/blankets when they're wedged next to me each morning. DH is usually 1st up and out the door each day. D&D are morning dogs, once I am up. :rolleyes: They count on me being responsible for them - feeding and going outside - every day - clockwork. I just love loving them.:)

My 3 will stay in bed as long as they can. I get up early (5:30) and they all just shift over to my husband. He is usually up by 8 or 9 (retired) and the boys move into the family room with him. Nicky, my girl, never gets up before noon, except for Sundays when we go to the dog park to meet up with all their basenji pals. On Sundays she is up by 9!

I never heard of a morning basenji before. Do they realy exist…
