My bed this morning :)

This is what happens when I get out of bed. A silly white poodle who shall remain nameless is the worst spot stealer in the world. Where I am supposed to sleep Bella?

I then began to talk to them which caused Ripley (my *under cover* dog

) to wake up. He is the lump and has just gotten up and done his early morning shake under the covers.

Silly thread but I thought many of you might be able to relate if your bed is shared with dogs.

So cute! Isn't life with dogs wonderful? I can't wait until Sunny is old enough to get in bed with me (but Moon and Bean CAN wait

)

Cute Picture!

I'm not sure Bella, but Sadie may give you a run for your money as worst spot stealer! As soon as she hears Ralph shut off his alarm in the morning, she is standing by the bed waiting to steal his spot! And right, now, since I'm out onthe computer, I garuntee, she is laying on my pillow!

LOL! Has anyone seen the commercial where the dog (I think it is a Golden Retriever) brings a tray of food upstairs for its person? Then the person gets out of bed and starts their day and the camera goes back to the dog who is now blissfully sleeping on the person's bed with its head on the pillow? I love that commercial but I can't, for the life of me, tell you what it was trying to sell. I was too caught up with the dog!

Oh Bella.. you sure are a smart girl!
You know how to get a warm spot!

I'm still LOL at the lump in the bed next to her!

That huge lump is RIPLEY??? What's he doing under there; he is the smaller of the two!!!

Bella, what a face, you sure look liek having moms' spot is pure BLISS!!

Isn't it great, Pam? And we wouldn't have it any other way!

Hehehe,

, what a great picture. I am very amused that Ripley does his morning shake under the covers, silly boy. Maybe he wants to shake out his bed head before anyone sees him.

I stopped making my bed in the morning after getting Peaches. I would spend time making the bed before going to work, only to come home to find the covers all over the all pulled down and puffed up when I got home.

*UnderDog* (aka Tucker) usually goes to sleep in his own dog bed. In the middle of the night I am awakened by a pawing on the side of the bed. Then am required to hold up the covers so UnderDog jump into the bed and position himself under the covers. Okay, sometimes I have been known to make a special invitation for UnderDog (when I miss sleeping with a furry body slapped up tightly against mine). This sleeping arrangement is predicated upon neither of us getting too hot and if that occurs, UnderDog is pushed out or vacates on his own.

Hannah, much like Phred's Cinder, is known to take up more than her fair share of leg space, albeit on top of the covers.

Mom, there's still a *little* room on the other side, over by the wall. Cassie and I have a slightly different problem. What happens when a nine-pound cat makes herself into a circle in the center of a double bed? Human (that's me, a.k.a. Cat's Servant/Food Person) twists into a pretzel for sleep!
