Does your dog sleep on your bed?

Tuffy's not my bed head warmer

Tuffy's not my bed head warmer

Tuffy is used to sleeping with me on my bed.

I used to have a dog bed for him in the corner of the kitchen that he would snuggle in during the day, but the a neighbor brought her puppy over and it pooped in Tuffy's bed, even after cleaning and disinfecting the bed he refused to go near it. Now four years later we have moved and I bought him a cozy little bed to cuddle in. My dog is a thinker . He thinks he is getting kicked out of the big bed. And why would any dog want a little bed when he owns a big people bed?

Here is Tuffy's idea of a re purpose ( ( he made it a head rest) on my bed.
Happy Holidays
From Tuffy and mom

starstarstarstarstar 		Upsate Tuffy's sleep habits NEW
by: Iris

Nowadays, being Summertime, Tuffy will sleep on the bed with me ( that useless dog bed aka headrest, us gone) ,
Now Tuffy waits for me to fall asleep, then sneaks out of the room to his crate in the kitchen, but usually skeeps on the cool linoleum kitchen floor, and sometimes halfway into the crate and half on the floor, always blockung my way to the bathroom to make aure i dont get away from him., then comes back ro wake me at sunrise to take him outside.
I guess changes are to ve expected in every relationship.
Love,
Iris and Tuffy 💋🐶

by: Marcia

Gracie our Coton has her own bed next to ours where she sleeps most of the night however when we say it's time for bed she jumps up and sleeps between us or at the foot of out bed while we watch TV..she knows her feet need to be wiped before she gets up. She is there for awhile then when I move my legs or say time for bed she jumps down and goes to her bed where we find her in the morning. She loves sleeping on our bed but I starting bein consistent with her and now she is just fine with it and loves her bed too.

by: Anonymous

Saylor Jane and Aligrace take up the entire bed so I decided to make them a nice warm bed in the floor. This did not work because they just spent half of the night trying to jump in the bed. I wasn't getting more than a couple of hours of sleep a night with them in there because they both want to sleep on top of me. So finally I shut them out of my room. Aligrace got mad and moved to my son's room and Saylor Jane got where she would wait for me to go take a shower and she would run and hide in my room and not come out until the light was off and the door shut. So... we came to an understanding. She sleeps in her bed at the end of my bed Monday thru Friday and on Saturday and Sunday she sleeps on top of me. It's amazing tho that she totally knows which days she can sleep with me. Aligrace isn't as mad at me as she was but she will not sleep with me anymore. Gotta love these babies.

starstarstarstarstar 		My sweet Madison NEW
by: Joanie

My 7 year old Maddie has changed some of her sleeping habits over the years, but for a while now her bedtime routine goes something like this...My husband will say "It's bedtime Maddie, go hop up with Mommy". Being the smart little Coton that she is, Maddie runs up the doggie stairs we have for her (We have a king sized bed with a mattress topper so it is pretty high up!) and makes herself comfortable up on my pillow above my head. After I fall asleep she will usually head to my sons room and sleep at the foot of his bed for the night - as if to guard the house, because his bedroom is closest to the front of the house. This has been our nightly routine for a couple of years, we LOVE our girl so much!!

by: Dale

When we got Buffy we had a queen size bed and now have a king and share it with two cotons. They sleep between us and if I get up at night they both move to my spot and Buffy has the nerve to growl at me when I try to make her move over. It is funny to see them on their backs with paws in the air.

by: Iris

Lol, now Tuffy is sleeping with his head under the dog bed on my bed, also along side of it. He is all over the place all night stretching and rolling over on his back all paws pointing up. What a show he puts on. And oh! He talks in his sleep! Ha ha

Thanks Sherry , we are right back where we started from in California. Hometown. 🤗

by: Stephanie Aviles

Our sweet Gino thinks he is human. Our sweet pup sleeps right between my Husband and I under the sheets. He thinks he is sleeping like we do. Each night we tell him it is night, night time and he quickly jumps on the bed ready to go to sleep. These Cotons have the best personalities.

Happy holidays to you and your sweet pup! :)

starstarstarstarstar 		dog in bed NEW
by: sherry cotton candie

Yes both of mine do. They have their own beds and pads all over the house but prefer mine. They do allow me in there but how 2 small dogs can stretch and kick and take up so much room is amazing.

Merry Christmas to you and Tuffy---hope you love living in California, warmer climate for sure.

starstarstarstarstar 		Beds galore NEW
by: Sue and Teddy

I've bought Teddy different beds and made some but he will not sleep in them. He just scrapes and scrapes at them and then lays elsewhere. Strange little dogs but so adorable.
They certainly know their own minds. That's why we love them so much. Happy holidays.
