bed partners

Published Sep. 7, 2008

Mine weighs 22 lbs, 4 legs, and somehow takes up most of my queen bed. I squeeze in where I can, and sometimes get the corner of the pillow. If I try to sneak back in there for a few, she will re-position, and of course I get this rump pressed against me.  She has to touch me. She is a virtual heating pad which is great in the winter. Am I complaining? Naw she is a great bed buddy. Guess I'll wash the sheets when she decides to get up.

OK... (washing the sheets). BTW, I have this really tall antique bed, so tall I removed the box spring and the mattress rests on the slats. But my girl is a jumper, she gets up there effortlessly.

Hey, I have a set of doggie steps free to whomever will come get 'em. Will only work for a smaller dog, though - they're so small that my Aussie can't really use them.

I have an Austrailian Cattle Dog that used to sleep with me and hog the bed. After he started chewing holes in all of my covers, I started training him to sleep on the floor.

During his training, I would wake up in the middle of the night with him hogging the bed again. It was then that I figured out that he would wait until I started snoring to jump on the bed.

A few months ago he went blind from spinal meningitis and he can't jump up on the bed no more. Now, I almost wish he could. He sleeps close by though with plenty of pillows, blankets and even an electric blanket if he needs it.

"kay... I have seen doggie steps advertised in magazines !" I have a feeling I will need some one day. She takes a running start now to jump. Well she does have short legs and they don't bend (at least her back ones, chows don't) anyway that running start keeps getting further and further away. LOL

In our bed, there's two humans, two cats, and the occasional child. The dog gave up and started sleeping beside the bed instead.

They so need an edit button for posts... Excuse all my typo's! :p

Awwwwwwwwwww, my chow sleeps with me and she is a bed hog. Has to lay next to me. Usually uses my legs or feet as a pillow. I can't roll over I just have to lie there. Sometimes she pushes and my legs wind up off the bed. heehee... Would I change it. Nope! Now if my husky would be up there too well I would have to get another bed. But I'm wondering as she gets older if I will have to build her a ramp to get up there is she ever gets to where she can't jusmp up anymore. If not she would sit on hte floor and whine and not let me sleep. Ahhhhhhh the love of my babies!

daisy...my goldens were always too lazy to jump on my tall bed. I did date a girl with 3 cats in the bed...that did not last, but not because of the cats.

lawpirategirl...that is the sweetest pic of Nixie and your daughter. That should be required viewing for all dog lovers...thanks.

I just so happened to have a picture of what my bed usually looks like. It's posted on my profile.
