Maltipoo Wakes Mom up With Full Energy and Zero Chill
When you have a dog in the family, mornings are a little different, especially if your pup is a morning dog who refuses to take time to ease into the energy for the day. For one Maltipoo, waking up and starting the day isn't a slow process; it's immediate with full energy that must be matched by everyone.
In this video, we meet Maltipoo, who launches into the day with full effort and energy, making sure her mom is awake and ready to take on the day, too. It's the type of energy you can't ignore, no matter how tired you are. Take a look!

Good Day - Nappy Roots
Shared by The Fluffy Pup (@thefluffypup), we see a video of an adorable Maltipoo named Nessie, who only knows one way to start off a week, and it's always with full, maximum energy.
The clip shows her waking up her mama each day of the week, and the energy only fades a tiny bit on Thursday. Each morning, she comes bouncing up onto the bed to greet the day with the biggest ball of happy energy. Of course, her mom jokes in the caption that she "really was just trying to get by on Thursday" because there's a tiny bit less pep in her step.

In the comments, people had a good giggle at the energy difference between Monday and Thursday, but ultimately just loved Nessie and all the fun she brings.
Some comments included, "She really said, 'OK, I give up,'" "I'm not a morning person at all, but my Maltipoo shows so much excitement when I wake up in the morning. I've been having good mornings since I got him in 2019," "I'm gonna get my dog on the 13th this month," and "That's a fun way to wake up! All happy!"

Why Does My Dog Wake Me up Every Morning?
If you're not a morning person but your pup very much is, it can be frustrating when you feel like your sleep is always being interrupted. But there are some ways you can help level out the difference between how you want to sleep and how your dog wants you to be awake way earlier than you want.
According to the American Kennel Club, there are many reasons why your dog might wake you up in the morning, and it's usually just become the routine... but you can't always assume that. The experts say that sometimes you can just ignore it, and eventually they'll realize that waking you up won't get them what they want. But if they're waking you up because they need to do their business outside, that's a wake-up call you want to reinforce.
There are a few suggestions they make. If your dog is waking you to cuddle, eat, or just because, try an automatic feeder if they want to eat early. Take them out for a potty break before you go to bed. Ensure their sleeping space is quiet and dark, so they don't wake too early. Wear out their energy with puzzles and treats, and spend lots of quality time with your dog during the day.
If their wakeup calls don't bother you for being too early, well, enjoy that you probably have the best, cutest, and most welcome alarm clock of us all!
