I absolutely agree. Plus getting on furniture with the humans is higher dog status. The last thing you need are any fights over the pecking order. Think of it from your dogs perspective. Here is a new dog coming into their territory and being allowed the coveted higher status spot. It could definitely cause some skirmishes. As far as the bed goes - I would only allow it if it is only on the bed of the friend and only if the other pups cannot see it.

Good Luck - Looking forward to pictures.
