Brooklyn sleeps in the small of my back on my bed- I'm a side sleeper. She started out sleeping in the kennel, but we would have nighttime tv watching, cuddle time together on my bed and I started putting her in her kennel later and later. Eventually, I let her stay all night and she did fine. She was about 6 months when I started that. When Kymmi came along, Brooklyn regressed some with potty training and had to be put back into the kennel for a week or so. Now she's back on my bed and Kymmi is still in the kennel beside my bed. I don't trust Kymmi all night quite yet, she's only 15 weeks old. When I do, I'm sure I'll have two furbabies in the bed with me.
