LOL, Maddie has doggie steps now because she would sit by the bed and whine. So she sleeps curled up beside me, but does well...never any messing around...just sleeping. But she's almost a year old. She started this a few months ago...just be patient...she'll calm down. Sophie isn't allowed yet, because I made the mistake of putting her there the other day...and found a surprise on my pillow...ughhh...
