My boyfriend is leaving for a week, and I was thinking of letting Harley sleep with me.. but he's such a hyper little boy. I can't seem him settling down? we'll see how lonely I get, Matt's the fidgetty one, not me so I don't think I'd squish him. |
My babies sleep with us...14 yr old 5 lbs and my 2 yr old 8.6 lbs...been sleeping wirh us since they were 5 mos old :) |
Izzy sleeps with us every night....but she's 7 lbs now... I'm a light sleeper so im always aware of where she is at. |
YOU HAVE A CHOICE? :eek: From the day Sprocket came to our home, he came to sleep with me/us. Where ever I am, if I'm working late in the office, he sleeps there til I go to bed. Where ever I am, that's where he is, he may snuggle with DH, but doesn't stay. You will get used to your baby being in your bed, being aware, one thing that might help. When Sprocket first came to our house, about 11pm or midnight I would put him out to the back yard, (it's enclosed), I would hide so he couldn't see me and want in and he would go pee. He would then come back to the door to come in, get treats and praise. Then when DH gets up for work about 5am same routine. Treats and praise, treats and praise. The schedule and time. It sure has worked for us. Treats and praise works for retaining ALL sorts of old dogs :wink:. Good luck :animal-pa |
Rio (3.2 lbs) and Bullet (2.8 lbs) sleep with my DH and I on our king size bed and have had no problems. As others have said, you learn to be aware of where they are on the bed in the middle of the night. We have stairs that they use, and we also have their crates in the room with the doors removed in case they feel like having some privacy - LOL! Rio sometimes gets in her moods and leaves our bed to sleep in her crate, but usually by morning she's back up on the bed with us. They both know to wake us up if they need to potty in the middle of the night thank goodness! |
Ruby sleeps with my husband and I, she is also 7 months and weighs 2.5 lbs. She sleeps between our pillows. At the end of our bed we have a bench with a bed for her and sometimes she'll sleep there. She usually uses that bed to watch us get ready or while I'm folding laundry she lays there and watches me. I also have stairs that she uses to get in and out of bed, and I keep a pee pad on the floor for her. Leslie |

Levi has slept with me since I got him, and we've never had any problems. He climbs up in my face and licks like crazy when he needs to go out in the morning. Nice alarm clock! |

Zoe doesn't sleep with us but I wish she would. We tried once and she scrambled back and forth on the bed like her butt was on fire. She never would settle down so we had to put her back in her ex-pen, which made her happy because she then went to sleep. Another time we put her in bed and she proceeded to do her business on top of the spread and thru the sheets. I don't think she likes the bed at all...but loves her pen and crate. She's 5 months old. I may try again when she's older. |
Let's put it that way... dh and I are allowed each about 6 inches on the outside of our Yorkies bed... LOL! It's amazing how much room a 5 lbs. furball can claim...??? Seriously, they all sleep with us since the day we got them. They have steps to get up and down if they don't prefer to jump right up. Each of them has his/her own spot with Mikki curling up in my armpit, Maggie being at my feet, Maxie being at my dh's feet and Minnie and Mylo are somewhere in between. I'm always aware where each one of them is and never squished one. It's a mom thing, I guess... Mikki is even defending her priviledge and grawls at any of the others if they come to close to me or when I'm up already and they stay in bed with their daddy then him. We love it like that... Oh... they sleep all through the night but have also piddle pads outside the bedroom door. |
Tinkerbell sleeps in her crate next to my bed, but i often let her get in bed with me in the morning and she loves to take naps in the bed. I imagine once I am more confident in her house breaking she will sleep the entire night with us. |
Before Toby came to us, his foster mom had him sleep in a crate because she already had her three yorkies sleeping with her and her husband. Speedy has always slept with us. I couldn't see making Toby sleep in a crate as we don't crate Speedy at all. The first week he was here he curled up beside me and slept. Now he claims the bottom of the bed. 99% of the time he sleeps through the night and most times I have to get him out of bed to go out and potty when I get up to get ready for work. I wouldn't have it any other way. I just wish our queen sized bed was a king sized bed! |
i can't imagine not sleeping with my lil one she is 3 pounds we share my pillow or she sleeps around my neck hubby said no when i first got her then he said when she could get up on the bed by her self then she could sleep with me that didn't take long i would sit on the bed and call her when he was at work ( THAT WILL BE OUR LIL SECRET ) ;) PAT FROM SOUTH CAROLINA |
Dustee is 2.5 lbs and she has slept with me since the day i brought her home at 12 weeks and she sleeps right next to my head on her blankie Sugar bear is 2.3 lbs and sleeps with me as well but he was 7 weeks when we got him so i waited till he was about 10 weeks and he winned every night and so he made his way into the bed as well both do great thur the night i take them potty about 6 am and then they crawl back in bed wish i could do the same. Ive never had a problem squishing one or anything. All though since moving to the country Dustee will fly off the bed if she hears anything raising all kinds of h_ll. |
