Does my puppy have a gift?

Or am I just lucky?

She's 11 weeks and sleeps the entire night without having to use the bathroom. She doesn't sleep in a crate, but on her bed on the floor next to my bed. I got to bed between 11 and midnight and she comes with me. I let her out to use the bathroom right before bed. She sleeps all night and wakes up between 6:30 - 7:20 (my alarm is set for 7:20) and if she wakes up before my alarm, I usually hear her cuz she does the shake and starts trying to jump on my bed. She uses the bathroom when we get outside.

She's been able to sleep the entire night for 2 and a half weeks now.

Update:

If I do hear her at night, like repositioning herself, I'll get up to see if she has to use the bathroom. She looks at me and it's as if she rolls her eyes at me and goes back to sleep! "Mom! I'm trying to sleep, why are you waking me up?!"

    Your lucky, and I have a feeling you also had a good breeder. Only one dog I every got as a puppy did that and he came to me at 10 weeks with never an accident. It happens, but it's rare.

    He's the one in my Avatar

    No gift. My grandpas dogs all of them do that. The trick is once you take him out at night don't let him drink anymore... And 20 mins prior to taking him out. He should be fine and then as he gets older he won't ever pee in the house. He'll know right from wrong
