oh oh, that's a hard one, because they have been in paradise...
Dogs love to sleep with their owners, but it they weren't allowed from day 1, they know that is not allowed. But if they were sleeping there for 3 years, oops, I think that now they will think they are being punished or something.
My yorkie sleeps with me but he has his own cuddle bed at the end of the bed. At times, he comes up to me and cuddles around my arm, but most of the night he stays in his bed, so he doesn't bother me at all. Maybe if you would try to restrict him to an area of the bed using a nice and comfy bed or blanket, I don't know, try to persuade him by giving him treats for staying there. Otherwise, you can do the crating, but they will be so sad! |
