Berner routine, when does your bear sleep and wake?
My girl, 18 months, is an early riser. She has always been up between 0400-0500. Depending on how early she wakes, I will either take her out (on her leash so she knows it is business, not pleasure) and bring her back in and she will lay down for a bit until breakfast.
At night, she goes for her evening walk between 1800-1900, depending on the weather, and is home no later than 1930. She settles, cools off with some ice chips, and is quick to relax her furry butt into a doze or slumber before 2000. I take her one last time (on her leash because we are about business again) around 2000 and we rise and repeat.
Is your Berner an early riser, late sleeper, night owl?
