no pets on the bed? no way...

When I get settled and turn out the lights, there are 3 dogs and 2 cats on the bed. But when I wake up cramped and have to turn on the light about 3 AM to see who has to s hift so I can strech my legs, there re usually 3 dogs and 5 cats! The cats come and go all night long. The dogs can't get up on their own. Two of them will jump down (not supposed to). If they need to get up again, they wake me up for a lift. I can do it without coming fully awake!

Just last night for the first time, I woke to Chaplin on the bed nibbling and puncing on my toes! He is about 5 months, and doesn't come up often. So I had to wigle the toes and play with him for a while before settling back to sleep.

Sharing the bed is the only way to go, if room is allowed. I don't care about dog hairs at all. Of course, I've only got one dog. He does contribute a decent amount of hair. Having that multiplied a few times, I might say no to all but not to some.

Sierra always starts out on the bed with me. Then the hubby comes to bed and she either jumps off or curls up in the crook of my legs if it's a chilly night. She's a GREAT foot warmer!!

There is a dog bed right next to my side of the bed she sleeps on a lot.
Buddy paces all night long, he doesn't sleep much.
When my hubby worked out of town the 3 of us slept in the bed all night long. That's when I found out what a BED HOG Sierra is!
