When Dogs Stay Out All Night

Two of my dogs can be very “dog-like!” Try though I might to convince them that squirrel isn’t good for them and it’s so barbarian to eat it raw, they don’t listen.
Last night, these two decided to stay out all night. Usually, they come to the door and ask to come in at a reasonable hour. Not last night. I’m sure the night life is amazing. I’m not one to know.
At about 3:30 am, I hear them and out of the kindness of my heart, let them in. It’s now 1:00 pm and they are zonked! Sammy lifted his head briefly and his eyes rolled back in his head slightly as his head fell back down.
I’m not sneaking around or attempting to be quiet. I told them this isn’t a pet hotel where they can stay out and party all night and expect me to accommodate their need to sleep all day. Whatever they did Iast night definitely beats the dog park.
If your dogs are a little restless, let them stay out all night. One doesn’t want to know what they do. Just enjoy the next day when they can barely lift a paw. Makes me wonder about tonight…
