My husband never had a say. The second day we had Tucker he was crying because it was thundering out. I just picked him up and brought him in with me. End of story!

I will always have my dogs sleeping with me . If the other is not happy with that , I just say " Go sleep on the couch or the carpet ".

You could always tell the boyfriend when he's trained to sit, come, and stay, then he can sleep on the bed, too.

bunjee sleeps in his crate. my husband didn't want bunjee in bed with us. i didn't have an opinion either way since i've never had pet in bed with me before. but i figure as far as the bed was concerned, my husband got there first so he's got dibbs.

there are times when bunjee was really fussy and kept crying in the kitchen at night. i'd go and pick him up and sleep with him on the couch while my husband stayed in bed. that's the boundary my husband and i established before we got the puppy and i respect that.

i don't know if this is your first pup or if you've ever had a pet sleep with you in bed before, but if you've never had a pet sleep with you before your current boyfriend, i'm curious to know why are you so insistent on it now? some people, like your boyfriend, just prefer not to have a pet in bed with them. i don't see anything wrong with that preference. and i don't think it's fair for you to force this upon him if this is a new puppy and new to him as well.

if you really want your little one in bed with you, perhaps start off having her in bed with you when you're napping without your boyfriend. or start sleeping somewhere else, guest room or couch with your little one instead. your boyfriend might relent and let your baby in bed with the both of you for the sake of keeping you in bed with him.

It was actually Johns Idea to let Tigger sleep with us. He's slept with us since the first day we bought him home. and at that time he only weighed 1.9 lbs.(10 wks) now at 7 months and four lbs he's my little back warmer.

My BF doesn't really have a choice in the matter, the dogs are part of the package. He actually likes them sleeping in bed with us, but not when they try to share his pillow, or get in his leg space. I think they know that so they both sleep with me, one on my pillow, and one at my side.

alisonJ · 01-11-2006, 05:14 AM

Regarding your boyfriend, and I mean this in the nicest possible way, dump his a**.

JUDY's2yorkies · 01-11-2006, 05:28 AM

Idea's or suggestions,Yes, get rid of the boyfriend...My dad told me when I was of dating age, if he does not love dogs, then the guy is not worth your time or energy..gee he was right as usual..a dog lover is a great guy,can't hide your true self from a dog

toninm · 01-11-2006, 09:57 AM

i have no suggestion. Marty lets Dollar sleep with us...he has no choice. I would make him sleep on the couch. LOL! Dollar usually sleeps on him.

That's funny!!!!! I also joke with my BF about training him like I do with Rocky.

Mueyinter · 01-11-2006, 11:46 AM

Sango's a spoiled lil' Miss Potty Pants & alway sleeps on the bed with us. My husband doesn't mind at all. As a matter of fact when it's bed time he'll jump into bed, hide under the covers and call Sango for bedtime & not me!~

Hahaha but he & Sango always play hide & seek before bedtime.

Smudgers_mum · 01-11-2006, 12:36 PM

It was my boyfriends idea to let him sleep in our bed. Alright for him he doesn't wake up in the middle of the night with him gazing into his eyes

. (He loves his mummy lol)

Men may come and go but a yorkie is with you for life...

Tell the boyfriend to get his own bed if he doesnt want to sleep with you and the baby

thisHUNNY · 01-13-2006, 11:19 PM
