My dogs sleep with me at night. I'm just thankful I've got a kingsize bed, otherwise there would be no room for me.
See, I'd like that. I stayed with a friend once after not seeing them for a long time. The dog remembered me, and came into check on me several times in the night. It was sweet. BUt I'm afraid Leela will get into something. I suppose we could just make sure there is no trash for her to get...Right now we've gone from having her confined to her crate to being confined to the kitchen with access to her crate. Maybe we'll try that for a while and see how it goes.My dog sleeps in the floor next to my side of the bed. He has free reign of the house. He gets up periodically at night and makes his rounds then comes back. I really think he's double checking that all the doors and windows are locked And maybe that the teenager isn't escaping
So when she didn't just bark once, I jumped out of bed to see what was wrong. So I'm thinkin; maybe close the blinds at night- eh?
Bella sleeps on the bed and steals sheets and covers during the night. Boxers are major cuddle/kissy dogs and they tuck up against you at night. So, if you don't want a dog sleeping with you at night, don't get a Boxer.
And they fart like the dickens, too. At least I have someone else to blame now...
True. I did look out to see what she was barking at, since it wasn't her usual one bark to let me know our neighbor is leaving for work at 4am or that the neighbor dogs arebarking. But it wasn't anything dangerous, just an animal in the yard but I thought it best to keep the blinds shut at night anyway.I'm glad to hear I'm not the only one with a dog sleeping on the pillow that MY head is supposed to be on...
Depends on what she was barking at, maybe! A few years ago, a friend of mine's dog started barking like mad out the window. She got up and closed the blinds and continued the conversation she was having. Later she went outside and found her car had been broken into. We both pay more attention now when our dogs go ballistic. Yeah, nearly every other time it's, like, a person walking by in a funny hat... but we always check!
