As a rule, we don't sleep with our dogs. There's barely room in bed for two of us much less including some dogs. Plus, where would the cats sleep? And it wouldn't be fair to Riley who can't make it up the stairs.
Occasionally, I've been allowing a dog to sleep with me when Joe's not home. Mary has also taken to seeking out the bed when one of us is in it-when we're napping or only one is sleeping.
Last night, Mary came to bed with me. Joe said he came up to put her away and she was snuggling so hard he thought about sleeping on the couch. Then he decided it was dumb. He literally had to drag Mary from the bed while I pushed her out. Mary was determine to stay and before eviction kept laying in smaller and smaller balls closer to me. Ultimately, being on my pillow. Poor girl just wants a comfy bed.
