Im small enough to curl up with him...but we are wondering if anyone has any opinions or ideas on how to get him back in bed with us without him jumping off in the middle of the night, We are thinking of just putting the top mattress on the floor and somehow either building a ramp or getting a gate that surrounds us!? I cant keep sleeping on the floor..its killing my back! Cobi is worth it but OUCH. HELP!!!

If you message YT member bonbon and ask her about bed rails, I am sure she has lots of information. She sadly has lost Alex, her sweet baby that she had the same issue with...I know that she had looked into bedrails for him.
For years I slept on a mattress on the floor after my Maxwell had the disc surgery. I slept on the floor many times with sick pups...I SO get it. haha
I am SO happy to hear that Cobi is doing so well!
Thank you, Linda. Yes I did a LOT of research on bedrails and ramps to help keep Alexander safe on the bed. Before I found these though, I spent a year or more sleeping with him in his harness and his leash wrapped around my wrist - this worked great but the bedrails gave us both more freedom to get comfy and sleep how we wanted.

I'll pm you some info this morning. So happy to hear little Cobi is doing better!
