Do you allow your dog on your bed

[Simple Southerner]

No but only because they're big ASF one is 55pds the other around 65pds

 

[GoodBadHBK]

Yes. Both. 1 always sleeps in my bed.

Judge me.

 

[Fedorgasm]

Don't have a dog anymore but when I did, no. I buy the dog a very nice comfy dog bed and that's his space.

But I need one space in the house that's just mine. I don't want to worry about dog hair on my sheets or poop dingleberries being brushed across my pillow.

 

[Iroh]

No, because he sheds like crazy.

 

[Tone C]

Nope , neither .

One of them is a rescue and is very oddly shaped and he can't get onto the bed and would probably destroy himself trying to get off.

The second is a German Shepherd ( yea, I got another after thinking I would not do that again) and she doesn't sleep with us , they both stay downstairs as they do have a job to do of protecting the house or at least acting as a deterrent or early warning system. Plus I don't want to share with a snorting creature that takes the bed and steals the covers , I have a wife that does that perfectly adequately thank you.

 

[Sweater of AV]

Usually no, but our dogs typically have zero interest in sleeping on the bed anyways. Frankly, they almost have a better set-up than us at this point.

 

[ROKKO]

I love(d) my dog ROKKO. When I had him it was only a twin size bed and I had to call him up on the bed to lay next to me but after about 5 minutes he would get up and lay on the floor because I think he thought it was gay.

 

[Simple Southerner]

I used to let my 2 dogs on my bed when they were puppies but now they're huge outside filthy animals LOL

I didn't even let her upstairs for years until one 4th of July the neighbors were lighting off a ton of fireworks and she flew upstairs and into bed with us terrified. I couldnt kick her out and after that i let her do what she wants but she doesnt usually sleep with us anyway. She does come upstairs to wake us up in the morning though.

If the dog is not a shedding type yes.

I have been dog-sitting a poodle mix a lot the last few months. He first would sleep on the bed down by my feet. But over time he kept moving up, to the point he now like to push into the small of my back, probably for extra warmth, even though my place is not cold. I need my space so without even realizing, in the night i move away from him. He then creeps over and so on, until i wake up almost falling off the bed with the other side half of the bed empty.

I then get out of bed and go over to the other side, and it often starts again.

Sigh. But he is my buddy, so i allow it.

My Roxie Sox sleeps wherever the heck she pleases, she's snoozing away on my bed at this very moment as she recovers from surgery

 

[mjmj]

Fuck no. My kids both do. Their beds are full of dog hair. Anyone over 20 years of age that sleeps with animals is mentally unstable.

Belly rubs and healing wishes x

 

[Sobek]

No. I believe in them having their own space.
plus I have had a few shedders.

I remember listening to a podcast years back where a 9/11 firefighter was explaining how he was told his life was now shortened due to the lung condition he had now from breathing in ash, dirt etc.
He explained that even when sleeping next to another person you are breathing in fine particles of their hair and dead skun cells and that it just sits in your lungs and there was no real way to get it out.
His condition was a far worse version of that.

A few of the dogs I have had were shedders and that story stuck with me. I don't need more dog hair in my lungs than necessary.

 

[TheNinja]

Cockapoo. Yes. But I wish I never started it. He’s annoying in that he moves around and makes noise during the night. Plus smells sometimes.

 

[WINGNUT]

yep. all a dog has in life is you. you spend a lot of time sleeping...why would i refuse my dog that time with me and make him him lie on the ground away from me....
people do get dogs for different reasons and its only natural people will have different relationships with their animals. My dog is a companion first and I love this fucker with every ounce of my soul.

 

[llperez22]

Yup. Pittbull so she doesn’t shed. She sleeps in our bed around the clock while we’re at work but when we’re home she’s like 50/50 sleeping with us or in her dog bed.

 

[Yoel Bromero]

Border collie, feel the same. First time I let him up there he never stopped going up. If he's home alone, right to the bed. He moves around a lot and also sits on my chest hard when he's scared to wake me up. 2 rain drops and he's yokozuna

 

[Yehudim]

Very dirty, you’ll notice if you have white sheets. The deal breaker is that they’ll go in when I’m not there and lay on the pillows. That was just too dirty for me. I’d get acne from it.

I loved it because I found it very comfy though.

 

[emefer]

I don’t have doge anymore but when I did it wasn’t possible to keep them out, not that I minded falling asleep while having my toes licked. One night Luka did me the favor and trimmed my toenails when they were a little long. Dude just nibbled them down to the perfect length.
Miss those guys.
