Marino the French Bulldog sleeps not only on the bed,but in it. He is very adept at lifting back the cover with a paw. And as I live in Scotland which is decidedly chilly he makes a lovely hot water bottle.

Elmer the Brussels Griffon, or Griffon Bruxellois, as we call him, sleeps in his crate at one side of the bed, and Arturo, the Chihuahua pup , on the other, both wrapped up very snugly.

I am a widow, but when my husband was alive, and we were first married, he said, 'no dogs on the bed', but guess where the dogs slept? Yes, you're right.
