Do you have a schedule for your dog? Do you stick to it? Have you seen improvement after implementing a schedule? What is your dog's schedule?

Puppies need a routine I think but I also do not feed on a tight scheduel as I find they tend to anticpate it and get sort of pushy about it being time to eat. So  I have gone to feeding whenever I feel like it. So they never quite know. But we have a multi dog household so if I have 4 dogs sometime five all start thinking it is feeding time well then we could have Ciaos so this works better some dogs eat late afternoonsish and some after supper. I try to mix it up.

They know Training dog class is Sat. and they do look forward to that.

Yes! Our dog is almost a year now and he is on a strict schedule...he gets thrown off if it's changed..he adapts, but he likes his routine.

The other day I was running behind and he "talked" and stomped around like a teenager b/c he wasn't getting his way RIGHT AT 7:30... lol.

He goes into his crate for bed around the same time each night, gets up around the same time each morning and eats around the same times each day (give or take a hour ish)

 Our dog just kind of goes with the flow at our house.  He does anticipate the time my husband gets home from work, which is pretty consistant.

Mine doesn't really have a strict schedule.  She gets up when I do (5:30 on school days, about 8 on weekends/no-school days), gets fed breakfast sometime between 6 & 8 (depending on when I get up), goes outside to potty about every 3 hours during the day, and gets fed supper around 6:30/7.  Then she goes to bed when we do (between 9 & 12).
