My Chihuahua sleeps under the blankets snuggled with his back behind my knees. When I have to roll over, my legs go over him like an arch and he will reposition his back against the back of my knees. Going on over 7 years now.

Now do that with 75# of greyhound! He'll ball up, down below and behind my knees, and stay pretty still all night long.

Goddard is also willing to snuggle up to my wife, or to our friends that're staying over, too  although he will low-growl grumble at them if they move around too much (although, I'm pretty sure that he learned that from my wife) or to chase him off and away.

Dog sleeps on someone’s legs, normally it’s my wife or my older son, but he goes where ever he wants.

My mal sleeps at my feet every night.
Then the wife hops in.  Sometimes a kid or two will have a bad dream and join.  
Some days I wake up with zero room and wondering how I didn’t roll off the bed.

Nope.  If you do, it's a step closer to him thinking he is an equal to the alpha. No kids sleep in the bed. No dogs sleep in the bed.

Doggo is rarely more than 5 or 6 feet away from me when im home. She sleeps on the very corner of the foot of the bed unless she gets hot and moves to the cooler floor. Bitey end always aimed at the door with ears on alert.

Dachshunds are near perfect bed dogs. Sleep on your side and one will lay out by your back. So soothing on rare, cold nights.

No she has her own bedroom with her own bed. Now on the couch with padding yes. It's a 12 lb dog.

My dog has a bed on our floor. Throughout the night she alternates between that and several other spots around the house.

When she gets scared (like with NYE fireworks) we will let her sleep on our bed.

Mine always slept at the foot of my bed on a dog bed. When I was a little kid I had a golden retriever puppy that only liked me and it would sleep in my little twin bed with me. When he got bigger he would sleep next to my bed. Fun fact , after I got out of the Marines I was too cheap to buy a new bed frame so I got my childhood one and a new mattress and  stayed sleeping in a twin mattress till I was 24

One of my dogs sleeps on a $300 queen-size, firm, memory foam mattress topper. It was my mattress topper before my wife and I married. Did my dog sleep on my bed, or did I sleep on his bed?

The smaller three in this pic sleep on the bed.

Ours sleeps in between us at our hips facing the bedroom door. She’ll curl up against me pretty tight.  She was a crate sleeper until I was out of the country for a week and the wife was all alone in house. I came home to find out that mama had changed the rules while I was away.

She also curls up between us on the couch in the evening. She seems less guarded on the couch, I’m guessing because she knows we’re alert and awake then.

She thinks her place is close to us at all times. Love that dog.

I don’t like the hair. But I’m probably more closely bonded to this dog than any I’ve had before.

Pretty sure I’ll morph into one of those “my pet is my child” types when i get old.

It’s funny catching her stretched out in one of our spots on the bed with her head up on the pillow like a person. We use all those extra useless pillows the wife has to block the dog’s access to our pillows, but sometimes I forget or leave a gap.

Edit: she sleeps above the covers on a quilt we can toss in the washer whenever needed.

This. I love my pooch, but he knows better than to even think about laying on furniture. Same with any dog we've had.

He's curled up on his sleeping mat and blanket about 6' from the glowing woodstove right now. Couch, sofa or bed? Hell no.

Yes.   Which, since he is a 200 pound mastiff, is like having another human in the bed.


When my wife gets up before me he will get in her spot.

I routinely wake up to this.

Edit:  that’s my hand on top of his head in this picture.  I’m 6’5 and can easily palm a basketball

My 20lb shitzu does.   The 80lb mutt nope.   The big boy has gotten old and slow and his hips are getting weak so he isn't jumping onto the furniture anymore.  We used to let him on the bed on Saturday mornings and have snuggle time since he got jealous of the little one being up there.

Mine has been through a lot before I got him. In spite of that he's an absolute angel. He sleeps where he wants.

I love it when I ask if he's ready for bed and he runs down the hall tail wagging, jumps up in bed and just plops down like he's in heaven.

If we had that stupid bed the dogs would get on our bed and look at us like we were stupid. We have a huge dog bed for our Dane and I don't think that fucker has ever used it. I never thought about it but it's probably large enough for me to sleep on. We have to put him in a slightly cramped crate at night or all of his 140lbs will be across our legs. I didn't especially want a fucking inside horse as a pet but the neighbor was giving him up as a young pup and my wife informed me we were getting another dog. This is with a new kid on the way in a fairly small house.

Yes . . . and if you touch a frog you'll get warts.  Yes . . . and if you step on a crack you'll break your mother's back.

Eleven dogs over 40 years, and all have slept on the bed. Not one ever thought it was the alpha.  That's because the training never stops.  They always lie down and stay until they get the release word to eat. They know the words for couch, bed, chair, rope, ball, car, etc.  They heel, sit, stay, come when called. They get ample exercise so they aren't bored.

That dumb line about "they think they're the alpha" is only true if a human is too lazy to teach their dogs how to behave.  It has nothing to do with the bed. It has everything to do with consistent training and reinforcement

But . . . people do like their mythologies and folk wisdom.

No.
We have a GSD and Maliois. They have their own dog beds in the living room. I keep them out of the bedroom because they prowl the house at night going room to room making rounds.

The Mal just throws his feet out and boom! on the floor shaking everything. Then he will put his paws on the bed and nuzzle you in the face to make sure you are alive. The hop down and go to the next room. So I shut them out and they take turns lying against the door.

No - he’s a 160lb Burnese with about 50lb of shedding hair.
He sleeps in the basement on a patch of concrete (even though he has a bed / blankets / carpet). Trying to stay cool with that fur coat.
Yesterday he got into something in the back 40 and was having diarrhea… so he slept outside.
