Re: You sleep with a dog?

[Guest guest]

No actually the only animal in my bed is a cat.

The dogs sleep with my hubby in the other room. We decided on that

arrangement several years ago for many reasons. My hubby is usually

asleep by 9, I am up alot later and lots of nights can't sleep. He

has bad sinus problems and prefers to sleep in a recliner to help

with that problem. Also the older dog and the cat don't get along.

We have been married 37 years and the children are long gone so we

can have fun lots of placed in the house not only in the bedroom so

we are both ok with this arrangement.

But you all our correct in stating that it is a matter of getting the

dog trained. And I think an 80lb dog would be a bit large. Our dogs

have always been small (Cockers, min schnauzer(she slept with our son

till he joined the marines) and know we have 2 chihuahuas)

But as some one stated animals are very calming to have around !

Prozac in fur !

Hope everyone keeps enjoying the little 4 legged ones.

Carol,

There's nothing quite like the smell and feel of young puppy fur......almost as

good as little baby smell! I know what you mean about them growing up to

the point that they're no longer welcome on the bed.....Our puppy is now 98

pounds and, even worse, she snores like a drunken sailor!

With love, hope and prayers,
