Yeah I have a grey hound shepherd mix she sleeps in bed with us a lot but by the time that its her my husband and the two cats.. By the end of the night the pets got to go or we look like pretzels in the morning and can't move.0

:sad: Nope... My Chow Chow is too independent... She won't even let you pick her up if she's not in the right mood...0

Yes, the nights my husband is away for work my dogs will take turns during the night sleeping on the bed with me... It starts off with one and in the moring it's another...lol!0

We crated our Golden for the first year and that worked out well as he developed good self-reliance and independence. After that first year (or a little later), we decided that life with a dog is way too short, and we wanted to spend more time together, so we gave him permission to climb on in. The funny thing was that, if I got up for any length of time whatsoever, he would immediately move into 'my' spot next to my wife, instead of "his" spot at the foot of the bed. Yeah the dog hair was a pain, but I wouldn't have wanted to miss any of it. And now that he is gone, it's a much emptier place.0

Yes...don't judge me...0

Yep, mine create a human sandwich between us. Pretty funny the last few nights as the puppy (almost 2) has jammed himself as far up to the wall between our heads as possible. The dog who's afraid of nothing is all of a sudden afraid of something we can't tell what!0

When he was younger, our golden retriever would creep up in the morning to the head of the bed and curl up on my pillow, around my head, like a cat--except it was a 75 pound dog. He stopped doing it after awhile, but we could never figure out what started it.0 -
no, we used to, but my 3 year old desisded she dint like the dog getting to sleep some where she dint.0

Mine sleep on the bed. When I start turning off the lights in the house they head for the bed. I had to make a set of stairs for my older girl now she can go up and down by herself.0

I let my Staffordshire sleep with me when my husband is gone...like last year when he was working in Kuwait (private contracting job). My husband has some allergy issues, so that's why no dogs in the bed.
Otherwise each of the dogs have their own little beds, they know once they've had dinner and we let them in - it's bed time! They all run to their respective areas. Too cute!
I did try to train my staffy to sleep in my daughter's room, just because I'm paranoid and boy did that FAIL! lol The first night, the dog was in her bed, under the covers and on her pillow...the 2nd night I told my daughter "Don't call her up on the bed" - my daughter has ultra sensitive skin hence the reason no dogs in her bed. So after the 2nd night...yea, my daughter was asleep on the FLOOR with Ashley.....blankets, pillows and all....
Sooo....I bought Ashley a really nice dog bed after that. LMAO!!!0 -
Oh hells no!!! LOL I have two Rottweilers and they sleep downstairs.....They play really rough therefore trudge a lot of dirt around cuz the smaller one usually ends up on on his back rolling and covered in slobber! LOL Not to mention all the dust/mud considering they killed a lot of the grass in the yard....Its impossible to give them a bath everyday just so they could hop into the bed!! LOL
But they get plenty of cuddle time..just not in the bed!! LOL0 -
My dogs usually sleep in my moms room but in the morning when they come out to eat and are hanging out in the living room Zoe, our oldest, will sneak into my room and sleep with me.
I have four cats, two of which sleep with me every night. It would be weird not having my tonk, Syd curled up in my arms and my other girl Lu at my feet!0 -
I'd never get any sleep if my dog didn't sleep with me! I work overnights and sleep during the day. If I didn't put him in bed with me all I'd hear all day is the clicking and clacking of his nails and the occasional banging of his Cuz toy. He's a boston terrier and seems to have a blanket switch. As soon as I put him under the blanket, he falls asleep.0

No my dog Ozzy lets me sleep in the bed...LOL 0
-
Most definitely!! Even though I often end up squished between my Labrador and Siamese (for a little cat he can squeeze well!!) If I am doing something else in the room or out in the evening, my Labbie sleeps on the middle of the bed, just below the pillows - pretty much where I sleep at night. Siamese either sleeps next to me on pillows, at my side (opposite side to dog) or on top of me...0

Maxine occasionally lets us sleep in the bed - hahaha! Usually when I wake up to get ready for work, she steals my spot and sleeps next to my sweetie for a while - head on my pillow and all! But she prefers "her bed" in "her room". She has taken over one of our guest rooms including its queen size bed. We have the bed pushed up to the window so she can lay in bed and keep an eye on the neighborhood. I swear, she's like a teenage girl - right after dinner she goes to her room and wants nothing to do with "mom" and "dad". I always joke that if she had thumbs, we'd be in trouble ('cuz she'd be texting day and night!)0

Two do- the two smaller dogs- one sleeps with me and one with my son. Now the big dogs-no- they weigh 71# and 120#- they would take up the whole bed. My rule- you gotta be under 30# to sleep on the bed!0
-
Lord help me I do! When we first brought him home we tried hard to let him sleep alone but he just cried and cried. It broke our heart. That was the beginning of the end....0

LOL... Ozzyzmommy 0

Do I let them? Sometimes...
Do they sleep on the bed (and under the covers) regardless? Yes...0 -
no. i think it would drive my husband crazy. and our bed is way to high for the little mini poodle to jump on top. but mozart is the first dog allowed anywhere in the house at any time. he has his own space on the couch, which used to be my space and now i have to move around him. i also think its funny how i can catch my husband petting him, and letting him rest on his feet. lol. aye hubby he tries to pretend that the dog isnt cute...0
-
We have three dogs.
Sometimes we let the tiny Yorkie in the bed. Maybe once a month.
The other two larger terriers have gotten up in the middle of the night and wet the corner of the room(so they can't do it anymore).0 -
Our English Bulldog and both of our cats sleep with us. I am sandwiched in between a cat and the of, and my husband is also, and we wouldn't have it any other way!0
-
At one time we had 4 dogs...the Aussie slept on my pillow, the Dalmatian slept between me & my husband, the Hound mix slept between my legs and the Golden slept on my side of the bed...he would get too hot & get down on his bed during the night. How does anyone get any sleep without a snuggle buddy? We lost the Aussie and the Dal, but we have a Australian Cattle dog puppy now that loves to cuddle. Sometimes my cats even join in and sleep on my pillow now...good thing we have a King sized bed 0
-
yep-one sleeps under the covers "spooning" me, one up against my back and the 3rd either at the foot of the bed or on "his" pillow on the floor. His choice. It's crowded even tho they are all under 20lbs but I wouildn't change a thing! One of my cats sometimes joins us too. I really need to get a king size bed but can't fit it in the bedroom LOL!!0
-
Sometimes my 2 join me on the bed during the day for a nap. I have a toy poo who can "leap tall buildings at a single bound." At night, they go to their own crates to sleep.0
-
My Little Lhasa Apso sleeps with me every night. It is her Bed lol she guards the bed and won't let the cats on it! My German Shepherd still prefers his crate, I don't think he will ever sleep anywhere else.0
-
I used to always have my dog in bed, but our two jackies are just too wriggly and daft, so they sleep in their own beds downstairs. They do tend to come up in the mornings and have a little cuddle, though.0
-
my 2 dogs do, much to my husband's dismay. he doesn't really mind, he just wishes it wasn't every night. i do a lot of kicking of my legs, so Kirby (6 yr old boxer mix boy) would actually be much safer in his own bed in our room. but, he loves his mommy.. Ziggy (my 3 yr old beagle mix) moves around a lot, so after about 15 minutes, my husband says "bedtime" and she goes to her own crate. She really is happiest there.
However, i would be happy if she would sleep by my right side, so that i have someone to lean against. LOL0
