Yep, mine are all allowed on the bed. A mattress pad and extra laundry are cheap prices to pay for all the snuggles and cuddles I receive!!!

The pups are free to nap on the bed during the day. But as soon as we get in bed too, the Shelties don't stick around for very long. They don't like sharing with us apparently LOL Keeva will sleep with us if we let her but she's one heck of a kicker so she sleeps in the living room.

I was surprised by the numbers as well! My babies are always allowed on our bed. When I get a bad allergy / asthma flare-up, we wash and close the door to them. It never lasts for long though!

The kitties sleep with me, but Duke has to be in his crate down in the living room because he has accidents in the middle of the night. So DUke isn't allowed to sleep with me.

I'll bet a lot of Dog owners didn't vote yet. Most everyone I know with
dogs on PT let their dogs sleep on the bed. I do too.They can really warm up those cool sheets.

My husband and I open our bed to the pets everynight. Jax (the cat) won't sleep in our room because his food / water / litterbox are downstairs... although he will curl up behind my head if I am taking a nap... he knows when I will only be up there a short time.

The dogs sleep with us every night. Sadie sleeps on the end of the bed, usually on my feet (we've tried to teach her to sleep on the end of bed in the MIDDLE of us so as not to take foot room away from either of us, but she chooses my side all the time)...

Noba is funny. He will start off on his dog bed on the floor and then EVERYnight without hesitation, usually between 3-4 am, he wakes up and comes to my side of the bed and starts screaming bloody murder. And it's not because he has to go potty, he wants on the bed. So I have to get up and pick him up (55lbs!!!) and put him on the bed. Then if I try and put him on the end of the bed or on the outside of me, he cries this low pityful sound. The only place that makes him happy is between my husband and I. BUT, he HAS to be facing me with his head on my hubby's pillow and his paw touching me...

Honestly, any other position and he just does the "pity me, I'm so unloved" moan... quite pathetic really. I tried ignoring him one night to see what he would do, so after about 5 mins, he walked over to hubby's side of the bed and stood there and screamed even louder, woke hubby up and then got in bed anyway... lol... silly hound... spoiled some would say, loved I say!!

Haha! That's like Mickey! He'll lounge in my bed and sleep there.. but when I come to bed he looks at me with disgust and leaves.
