Really depends on the dog. Our dog, a 10 year old rescue mutt (who is the best dog in the world), likes to sleep in.

I have to get him out of bed for our morning walks - I usually take him out at 7:30 or 8; if my husband takes him out it's not till 9 or so, usually.

We know his needs may change as he ages. For now, he is super super easy and mellow about his schedule.

I have a small dog. She wakes up with me around 6am and goes out. She goes out again at 8 before I leave for work. The kids (teenagers) let her out at 3:30 when they get home. I take her out again at 6 when I get home. Sometimes she wants to go out again after dinner at 9 or so. I also take her out at 11:30 or 12 before I go to bed. I don't know that every trip is really necessary, but it works for us.

Wow, some of you expect your dogs to go a long time between last pee at night and first pee in the morning.

Our dog's last trip out is usually around 10, and his first is between 5 and 6.

My dog will lay in bed with me until 10 or later. We normally get up earlier of course. But she never wakes me up she’ll just lay with me until I get up

My 9-week old puppy came from the breeders with a 5am wake-up. That was the time she got up with all the dogs. Absolutely killer.

He's 6 months now and get up between 6:45-7am. Occasionally, later. Works for us because my MS kid needs to be out the door by 7:30am. I need to work on getting him to sleep in on the weekends.

People have told me it comes with time.

Two large, young labs. Their weekday schedule:

8am poop and pee
3pm pee (on weekends, usually more like noon)
5pm poop and pee
9pm pee
