Mine all sleep in crates - that's what they're use to and they like it...they want to go to bed in the crates. In fact if we haven't put them to bed by 8:30 they go stand by their crates wanting to be put in.
We wouldn't sleep well with them in the bed and they don't sleep as good being rolled over on, kicked, and everything that goes with being a human at rest. Having their own quiet place is best for them, best for their caregivers too.
Dogs, like children, need discipline. Adults need private time. Sometimes caring is saying "no".
