Matthias goes to bed with me, yes. I go to bed and read my book until I fall asleep. Most of the time, he falls asleep with me. I'm used to having animals in my bed though - two cats and a Brittany! Nah, I'm not gonna roll over on him. However, when my husband comes to bed (after I do and long after I'm asleep) he puts Matthias in his kennel. Matthias is housebroken but since he is a puppy we don't want him roaming the house at night and possibly chewing something not good for him. He hit his chew everything stage. His kennel is on the floor in my bedroom on my side of the bed. We drape a dark blanket over top so that he gets the idea it is nighttime. He sleeps straight through the night. When he's older, we'll keep the kennel so he has his own space to retreat to when he wants, but he'll likely end up sleeping with us and the rest of the animals. Unfortunately our Brittany being 13 with arthritis is having a hard time jumping up on the bed so mostly it's just my husband, me, and the two cats - one of whom is 18 pounds!!! |
