Does your dog sleep with you?  email this discussion to a friend?

myLot reputation of 93/100. mibngold (1524) 4 years ago

My dog insists that he sleeps wth me and he is usually behind my knees. I have severe back pain and can barely walk in the morning..I imagine it is because of him. He is a little dog, but sure takes up a lot of room. I can't get him to sleep anywhere else. I think he needs the human contact. He's a 22 lb. Boston Terrier. Any suggestions would be welcome...but we are in a very tiny apartment so there is no place to put him! Thanks!

i love dog, but i never sleep with a dog.i think he was spoiled, yo should try to train him not to sleep with you, at lest not on the bed, he has grown up? and you should ask a Dr. about your back pain, maybe it is not the dog's fault.

Once you start down that track theres no going back, I know, Ive made that mistake all my life. I now have five dogs and the battle for space in unbearable. Mind you, when its very hot, like now in summer, they get fed up and get off and sleep on the cold floor. My worst experience was when I had a Rottweiller, a German Shephard and a Belgian Shephard, I had to buy a king size bed for us all to fit on. lol

That is funny! And I complain about a little Boston Terrier. who, by the way has stoped sleeping with me since I posted. We got him a pet carrier for a long trip (10 hours each way) because he hates the car...he hated it in the car as well, but now he cuddles up in it every night. Oh what a relief on my back! Good Lord, How do you get any sleep?

Its funny, Ive become used to it now, so it doesnt bother me, like I said I sleep in a kingsize now, they got one half, I get the other. I am really pleased he likes his pet carrier, that was a fortunate move wasn't it? No more back problems then? Kiss him from me, he looks so cute.

He's a little character, my guy. Does he look like a "Butchie" to you? That is the name he came with and everyone says to me.."He looks like a Butchie"...I don't know what a Butchie is supposed to look like! He's really funny because I have had him since he was a pup, but he gravitates towards men & he just thinks everyone loves him! Bad thing is he likes to do the humpty dump, I thought I'd die when he 1st met my boyfriend's dad & did it to him...Yikes! Good thing they love animals! (he also peed on their chair...shhh!)

Hi we do not worry ,our dog is happy on the bed and so we are happy because he is happy,lol he often chooses to sleep with us,he loves the warmth that radiates from our bodies,but there are times that he is very happy just to go to his own bed and cuddle on it by himself,he sleeps on a chair during the day,he is a spoilt dog.
