| Where does your Yorkie sleep? Was wondering where everyone allows their yorkie to sleep? Trudy sleeps in my bed everynight. Always burying herself deep under the covers! Is this the normal? |

| Was curious, because have been advised not too. But I wouldn't want it any other way! |

| Twinkie does the exact same thing. She has to be wherever her mommy is! In the morning I wake up to several kisses and she tries to scratch the covers off of me, so I get out of bed! What a little booger! |

| My two have always slept with me. Muffin alternates between the top of the covers to under the covers next to me. Boomer sleeps next to my pillow on a fleese blanket. They sure are sleepers....my little 8 mo olds. I wake up before them and have to drag them out of bed most mornings. If it's a weekend I get lots of kisses first thing in the morning.

| Anywhere I fall asleep. If I fall asleep on the floor watching a movie, he's curled up right next to me.

| my pup isnt a yorkie, but she sleeps with me every night - i mean right up next to me with my arm wrapped around her! my husband says, i wish you'd hold me like that! haha. stacy - i had planned on having my pup sleep in her crate until she was housetrained, but i couldn't stand the nonstop whining. i started letting her sleep with me - figuring she would get up to squat if she had to potty and i'd feel it if she got up - and she's never had an accident in my bed. i also take her food/water and put it away appx. 3 hours before bedtime, but i don't feed freely - i do it on a schedule. it doesn't matter if i wake up at 6am or 10am - she lies there right under my arm until i wake up - and that's when i take her outside. i guess if she really had to go and couldn't wait - she'd wiggle out of my arms to squat - and i'd know to take her out. i have plenty of accidents during the day in my house, but never one in the bed! just saying - incase you'd like to try it. |

| Yorkie or not, it's just sweet that you love your baby like you do. Kaji and I fall asleep like that sometimes, but he shifts a lot. Sometimes I wake up with him curled up under my knees (I sleep on my side), in my arms, and my absolute favorite, I have woken up to a nice furry butt in my face.

Donating YT 500 Club Member | Roxy sleeps w/us. She prefers on top of the covers with her back up against either of us. When she's up against me, she will remain there until I move/turn over. Then she'll go to over to dh. When he moves, she comes back over to me. She of course, is free to shift her position at any time, in any way... but we must lay still and not disturb her it seems. Her royal highness must get her rest, you see! : )

| These are great! Thanks for sharing. Trudy also lays under the covers until she thinks I am getting up. Then she races down her stairs to be the first one out of bed! So even if I move around too much she then thinks I am getting up, so she races down them anyway! |

I may try to see what she does.

| good point. i wonder though - with dog's instincts and all? i don't think she would jump that far for sure - but fall? hmm. i think she would have to be dead asleep to do that. if you really wanted to, they make these things you can put on the side of your bed for babies so they wont roll out - they're really cheap - you could find one at a yard sale - heck, i threw mine away! not being pushy - some people don't want their dogs to sleep with them! i just like it - it's the best part of the day for my pup - she goes nuts when she knows i'm going to bed! i think it's made us bond a lot. |

| Jackson sleeps in bed with me every night. He sleeps in a little round dog bed at the foot of the bed (yes, a bed ON the bed... spoiled?) but sometimes he will curl up closer to me. I love it and wouldn't have it any other way. Growing up, our families dogs always slept in my parents bed, my grandparents, etc. I don't have a family memebr that doesn't allow a dog on the bed.
