And even then, only because 'daddy' just got home from work..

My old JR instinctively knew it was raining and just laid under the duvet and only came out when dragged out to go to loo!

I could understand it from an old dog, but she's only 15 months!

She's never been a 'morning dog' and has been known to sleep in till 11am - and even when she does get up, she usually comes downstairs, goes out for a wee then snoozes for the rest of the morning, usually till about 3pm.  But I've never known her stay in bed that late!

I suppose even dogs need their duvet days!

Gosh, our pair zoom down the stairs when I am standing with door held open for them to go out. Couldn't imagine them staying in bed all day - are you sure she is ok?

I'm pretty sure, she bounded down the stairs excitedly when OH got home, insisted on a game of tug of war with me, went out for a wee etc.  She ate a full bowl of dinner in her usual 'could be my last meal' fashion, tried her best to beg our dinner as usual, went out for a walk happily, and has spent the night varying between playing with her toys and snoozing, which she is doing now.

I can't think of anything that could be wrong with her, and the signs all look good so I really do think it is just laziness.  She does like a lay in and normally its only the call of nature that finally gets her up (or the postman), I think her bladder just held well today and so she stayed in bed.  I was surprised that me cooking lunch didn't get her up (any sound from the kitchen cupboards normally has her flying down the stairs) but she ate a full bowl of Burns when she got up so she's not off her food either.

I will keep an eye on her, just in case ;-).  I just hope she sleeps tonight!
