Don't see any problem with it.....I have a cold and couldn't breathe, so I got up and went into the den the other night to sit and try to sleep in the armchair....well, I let the dogs out of the kitchen..let them potty at midnight...Sooner crashed on a blanket which was on the floor...Boomer, on the other hand, crashed on my lap.....all 45-50 pounds of him...Even though I was comfortable at all, I couldn't make him get down....he was sawing logs....
