After the accident I tried to get Teena to switch to sleeping on the floor in her bed, but she she let me know that is not happening now! I know a man who rolled onto his human baby & killed her, so I'd say sleep with your dog knowing it's a risk.

Exactly what happened: I was staying in a hospitality room at a nursing home. We were sleeping in a twin sized hospital bed & I was on the computer in the morning while laying in bed. Dolly was snuggled next to me as always, sleeping, when she just slid off & hit her head on the baseboard heater. She was gone immediately, without making a peep. Very sad. She was 13 & 100% healthy & peppy. I guess there's a chance she had a heart attack or something & that's why she fell, but I'll never know for sure.

I'm so sorry about your sweet Dolly! Sending love & prayers!

Rylee injured her foot slipping off the couch once so now the girls are not allowed on the bed until I have body pills & blankets piled around all sides... quite a funny scene in the evening. Rylee is also only allowed on the couch when the ground is cover with pillows etc. I can't keep Monroe from jumping on & off the couch, so I've given up on that battle
