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!!
