We have three dogs, two huskies and a mastiff X dane. All three are inside dogs my boy either sleeps on the bed or on the floor next to me. My girl sleeps in the loungeroom in DH's recliner. DH's girl sleeps on the bed if my boy is on the floor, or outside on futon on the verandah if my boy is in bed. I had the two huskies before I met DH, took him a while to get use to the idea of dogs being in the house. He was a 'farm boy' and "dogs belong outside". I told him they are my dogs, I had them first, it's my house, he could deal with it. Now his "outside dog" became an inside during the day dog but not on the furniture to an inside during the day dog and on the couch but not on the bed dog to an inside when it was cold or rainning but not on the bed dog, to a bed dog

Toilet training. Puppies need to pee as soon as they wake up. The older they get the longer they can go before they need to pee. Mine can hold out for up to 18 hours now (they don't like to get their paws wet if it's raining and will hold on for AGES ) I foud when puppies if I took them out right before bed time and gave them a command....generall "go do wees, c'mon go wee wee" in a sickly sweet baby talk sort of voice, and kept them ouside till they did, then they could go longer during the night. DH's dog was the hardest, but she was started at the oldest age. With her I found it helped if I took the water away a couple hours before bedtime, then took her out and got her to wee right before we closed up for the night. We've not had a mess from any of them in years, and now they only wake us up at night now if they are sick (have the runs or need to vomit or something like that)
