My cat was the same way. HIS choice, not mine.

Absolutely, dogs are family.

Yes.

Indeed! My 32 year old grandson lives with us, and we (read HE) adopted a rescue dog about a year ago. The dog sleeps with me every night. Can't snuggle up close enough to me. He does provide some nice body heat.

I've had a dog since I was a little boy. At one time I had four at the same time. I will always have a dog. I've rescued or taken probably close to 1K pitbull's from the gangs in the projects when they were up. Did I say I love dogs? I do. But I would never, ever let a mangy, filthy animal sleep in my bed. They are not even allowed on the furniture.

Sleep with me on my bed? Rarely, because he prefers his own bed at night. However, the couch is a different story all together. Then it becomes "Do you let your dog sleep 'on' you?" The answer is obviously, yes.

Yes. My chewy did. R.I.P.
He had a down folded small comforter in the lower left side and that was his side.
Never bugged me or woke me up.

King sized bed. Wife, three Labradors. Like a game of Jenga sometimes. Miss them when traveling and unable to bring them.
