Marvelous Monday

 From the time I came to live here with mom, I have been whimpering in my crate from 3:30am till she can't stand it anymore and gets up.  I don't have to do business if that's what you're thinking.  I just want to be out of my crate and be with my mom.  

She's been thinking a lot about what to do about this and finally came up with a plan that she thought could work.

A HUGE box arrived here last week on Friday. 

The plan is that from 9pm till around 1:30am, when mom gets up to take me out to do business, I will sleep in my crate.
After we come back inside around 1:30am, I will be in the bedroom sleeping in my new bed or on the rug in front of it.   I am leashed to the bedpost so I only have 6' of room to explore so I don't get myself into any trouble.  
Now for the fun part!
It's International Box Day all over again☺
To continue~~
Friday night was a positive experience for both me and mom so on Saturday night, I got to sleep from 9pm till 5am in the bedroom, with my leash attached, with mom!   Mom found me at 1am underneath the bed skirt but that's okay as I was being a good boy!   I did the same thing again on Sunday night☺   I am on my way!
Did I mention that I have my own personal fan if the temps get uncomfy for me?!
I sure do like sleeping in the bedroom so much better than sleeping in my crate!

Happy July First!
Love ya lots♥
Duke

  1. We would not like to be in our crates at night either. Mom has had us sleeping in bed with her since we came to live here as tiny puppies. Cuddling all night with Mom is the best, but your new bed looks like it will work out swell for you. Not all humans like having their pets in their bed.

  3. Duke bless your sweet heart you are a smart boy and such a quick learner. That is one fine bed mom ordered too. It is soft and lush and enough room for a stuffy or two for snuggling.
    Keep up the good training
    Love you lots Cecilia

  7. What a great bed you have now, Duke. Your mom's plan sounds like it's working great. You will be off that leash in no time once you prove yourself to be a good boy.

  9. Lulu: "You have got plenty of other fans besides that one, Duke! Although I guess that's the only one that can cool you down on a warm day ..."
    Java Bean: "Ayyy, I am with you, Duke! I always like to sleep in the same room as Mama and Dada, too!"

  10. Great finding ways to get out of the crate Dandy - you are clearly very smart! Lady uses the leash trick with Lee when she is sacred. Your new bed looks super comfy! Lee and Phod

  14. Duke, you are such a good boy and a smart one too. There comes a time when the peeps have to give us a chance to be uncrated at night. But tell her to keep the crate around with the door open because she bets you will like to go in there sometimes just to take a nap. It always good to have a pup feel comfortable with being in a crate. We are so proud of you, Duke.

  15. Happy July 1st. You are being a good boy Duke. Coco did not like being in her crate at night when we were all in. When she was very little and had to be in her crate at night we brought it up to our bedroom and she did go to sleep then in her crate. Now she is two she is only in her crate if I have to go out as I do not trust her yet to be left on her own if I am out. She is very good though when we are out she just goes to sleep in her crate. I do hope you don't need your fan too often but better to have it just in case. Hugs & Love, Susie & Coco xx

  16. I never had a dog, so I didn't know that there's quite some work involved. You're so lucky that Mom is this thoughtful. Since everything is nice and comfy, I hope both of you score in sleep-time now. Sweet dreams💕

    Good job, Mom!
