OMG, that is just so cute!

My girls are a permanent fixture on the giant doggie bed...ummm, I mean my bed! Although, at some point during the night, lil' Miss Abby will leave the nest to slumber the rest of the night in a teeny-tiny doggy bed that she came with from when she was a puppy. She literally spills out of it or curls herself up like a pill-bug in it.

I dont think it took long for Pasquale to make his way into our bed. It was sorta by accident really.

I had been crate training him...and he hATED his crate! So i would let him fall asleep on my bed and then gently place him in the crate for the night. BUT he ALWAYS got up in the middle of the night to want to get out or use the bathroom. It was exhausting really.

Then one night, hubby and i were just lying in bed playing with Pasquale and we ALL fell asleep. Well low and behold, morning came and it was the best night sleep all of us got in a long time. He didnt cry at all and didnt even have to use the bathroom. Now when he has to go pee pee at night, i hear him gently bounce of the bed, go into the bathroom, go on the pad, and then scurry back up.

I think letting him sleep in our bed was the BEST thing we ever did.

That's how Jackson was. I had him in the crate waking up 1-2x in the middle of the night... the first night I let him sleep in my bed... full nights sleep. Sold!

I just think that there is something special about them loving us so much that they WANT to sleep with us ya know? I mean when you really think about everything these little guys go through (being taken from mommy and siblings and all) it is good to know that they have a human comfort.

When #3, #4, & #5 arrived, i just kept adding crates. They are all lined up beside my bed now and each has their own little bedroom. They know their own crate and run to get in them each night. they have lots of little blankies in each one where they can build their nests each night. They all get zipped up and go to sleep. In the mornings, DH unzips them and they all run outside to potty. We only allow them on the bed to cuddle and play until it is time for sleep. This works for us and we are getting better sleep now that we don't have to worry about rolling over on any of them. Naps are different as they are allowed up there on those rare occasions and they all have their little spot where they curl up.

What an adorable crew!

[Dunkaroo]

Yes! My Dunky sleeps with me and my bf. He used to get so upset with me because when we first started dating, I would let Dunks sleep on my pillow. He had a bigger dog (boxer/pit mix) and he would let him sleep on the bed, but by his foot. Now though is a different story. My bf would let him walk on him, sleep on top of him, sleep on his pillow. Needless to say, Dunks got him trained now. LoL

Paco currently sleeps in his crate, I'd love for him to sleep with me but I'm afraid of him having an accident on my bed or going on the carpet in my room.

[hannahallen]

Cohen doesn't sleep with us.. For some reason he thinks the bed is his boxing ring. He jumps all around and crouchs down in the covers like he's a tiger and then springs on us. The only way he will calm down and sleep through the night is if he's in his doggy bed... It could be just because he is young still but I dunno...

[Buster Bailey]

Seems like I'm the odd one out! Buster & Bailey share a crate at night & sleep in our basement. They have never been in our bed for sleep, play, or otherwise. They sleep GREAT in our basement since it's dark & quiet (and yes I can still hear them when they're in the basement). We made the decision to keep them out of our bed since day 1 because of our allergies, my husband is an EXTREMELY light sleeper, and also because we need our private space. The dogs are never allowed on our bed at all. They get reign of every other area/room/piece of furniture in our house except our bed, the office & the spare bedroom though!

[wee nan]

molly sleeps on my pillow every night, and i wouldnt have it any other way, she cuddles in when my hubby leaves 4 his work she comes right up to my face and puts her lttle paws on my neck.. its a great feeling!! about 6am she will give a little bark to go outside, so molly is my alarm clock. lol..xnanx.

[Ramseymom]

Like most everyone else, Ramsey sleeps with us. He's either on my pillow or under the blankets between DH and me.

[MyLilReese]

Reese started sleeping with me and my DH, at 3 mos old, she will not use the bathroom on the bed or even in her cage, she can't stand it and she has always been like that since the day i brought her home. so as you can see we all spoil our york york's, i haven't seen someone yet say no i don't let mine sleep with me, i mean how can you say no to that cute lil innocent face.

This is the funny thing. If eddie and I are not sure if the other was ready for bed we would have to spell it out. R-U-R-E-A-D-Y, Well dag um it now they can spell, and take off running. Gotta love them babies!!!!

Maybe you can learn to say it in a different langue...everytime they catch on.

Haha I know how you feel but I only have one!! Teddy takes every inch of the bed that you will give him! He loves sleeping on my pillow too right at my face lol. He's a mess! My bf never liked the idea of him in the bed but I would not have it any other way!!
