Ditto! During the day they can be found all over the house dozing off but Ripley prefers the sofa and Bella has her own recliner!

Both dogs always slept indoors. Jake chose to sleep on the hard floor, right up against the door. He wouldn't use a bed or anything. I think he liked the coldness of the floor, and the draft coming in from under the door.

Max likes his creature comforts. We always made a bed for him out of quilts, on the floor by our bed, but that wasn't soft enough for him. We'd always find him on the sofa in the morning, and it would be covered with dog hair! Then when we went downstairs he'd sneak upstairs into our bed.

I just can't sleep with dog hair all over my bed - it makes me so itchy!

So I made Maxypoo a nice, soft bed. The past 2 nights he's been using it and seems to just love it!

They sleep in the house.

Roxey & Huney have occassionally been known to wake me up around 2 am wanting to go outside. They do this when the weather has been so hot and they have to be in the house. So they want to go outside and play!

All my dogs are almost strictly inside dogs. Charlie and chloe usually sleep under each of my bedside tables, and Anna and Arthur are most likely to be found either sprawled around the bedroom, or (if Bella isn't home) on the bed with me. Sssshhh! hehe

Felony either sleeps with me in my bed, or in his crate, depending on where he chooses to sleep. I leave his crate door open so he can decide.

Annie and Bailee sleep in the crate that they share. They each have their own crate, but if Bailee is in one by herself, she whines all night because she wants her momma, so they have to share.

Molly sleeps either in my moms bed or mine. When we say go to bed, she either runs upstairs, or she runs to my moms room, depending on where she wants to sleep. If she decides she wants to sleep with me, she wakes me up about 7:30 so I will go let her out.

Sometimes the pups don't want to come in when its time for bed though, and they end up staying outside at night. We lock the doggie door before we go to bed so if they don't come in when we tell them to, they have to stay out there. We have a big dog house with blankets inside it on our covered porch for them so they have that to get in if they want to.

I thought the same thing. I would NEVER make one of my dog sleep outside.

They all sleep in my bedroom, except for Lucky who sleeps in bed with my son. Vanilla and Georgie sleep in my bed. Twister, Wishbone and Pepper sleep in their crates, and the others sleep on their dog beds.

Mine sleep inside. Usually in their crates.

Emerson has been sleeping in his crate every since he learned how to chew up dog beds while we sleep. Malone is SUPPOSED to sleep in his own bed, but has also learned that as soon as we fall asleep, he can jump on the bottom of our bed and we never notice 'til morning.

But that's OK, I rather enjoy having him there!!!

Hannah sleeps on the Big Bed with my husband and me. She is on top of the covers at the foot of the bed but spreads herself out to take *her half* out of the middle.

Tucker's habits vary from winter to summer. In winter he is mostly slapped up next to me, under the covers. His dog bed is right next to my side of the bed, so if he does get *too hot*, he can jump out onto that. In summer, he spends most of the night on his dog bed, but can occasionally can be coaxed up for serious cuddle time, should I need it. He also has two different dog beds: His summer bed is a dense foam type mattress with denim type fabric. His winter bed is a nest type with a fleece cover.

Sadie sleeps in my room, in her bed.

Depends on the dog...Sleet, Preacher and Muskwa are inside every night. Sleet & Muskwa sleep by our bed. Preacher has made himself a cave in the coat closet and sleeps in there. The rest of them take turns. There are usually 6-8 dogs inside at night. The most I've ever had inside at one time is 14.
