I've always been in the camp that thought it was a bit minging to let a dog sleep in your bed. However, I just got one last week and I'm converted, I can't resist the cuddles and cuteness!

How does this go for your sex life though? I'm not even wanking as it seems wrong, so am I just cockblocking myself starting this?! Should I nip it in the bud?

There's always a compromise, when you got to bed the dog can have 5 minutes of cuddles then on the floor, we have 3 large dogs and they all have bedtime cuddles and morning cuddles but limits need to be set x

I was being really strict about it the other night. I read that I should get up every time he jumps in to discourage him as he won't want me to leave. I must have done this 100 times and he eventually did settle in his own bed. I woke up in the morning to him curled around me though, then he bolted back to his bed as soon as I moved, as if he didn't want caught

. It was just too cute.

Last night I couldn't bring myself to make him go, although I know I need to be consistent, so I need to decide which way I'm going to go on it so I can get him trained properly.

I den trained mine, he has his own safe place where no one is allowed to disturb him and he prefers that now, morning cuddles are awesome.

That's good to know, thanks. I haven't gone for a den, but I have set him up his own comfy area where we leave him in peace and he's getting more and more comfortable leaving my side and spending time there, so I was hoping that might become his preference. It's all really new to me so I'm learning alongside him with the training!

I started off allowing this when I had my dog when she was teeny pup. Over the years she then grew to ridiculous proportions (even bigger than the breeder predicted she would get) and continued to try and sleep in our bed, but by this point she was too huge. It was cute watching her trying to snuggle in between us but we then had to undo the bad habit we’d set

But if you’ve got a smaller dog might be ok, haha

They are just so cute and babies who just want a cuddle and be warm.

Still I'd try and start as I meant to go on...good luck with the new pup.

I have a Rottweiler I never used to let her on the bed. Since I become single she sleeps were ever she wants until the moulting starts then it’s a no ha.

As long as you bath them I don’t think it’s that bad. I used to be a clean freak. Chilled out a bit now. Give a dog space so you don’t make it clingy an you’ll be ok

Our spaniel sleeps on the bed, not in.

He usually sleeps at the bottom or in the crook of my knees.

He kind of knows when to leave which is funny, or we close the door.

I was in the camp if no dogs even upstairs! But waited so long for him. Odd as I was super strict with the kids and they were never allowed in unless they were ill.

Welsh Lass

My pooch sleeps in his crate, it’s his safe place.

I did try letting him have the run of the house at night but i sleep with my bedroom door shut and he sits outside it and whines.

If i let him in he doesn’t settle, he wanders the landing sitting outside all the bedrooms, it’s like he doesn’t know who to guard.

With his crate (which is massive btw) he goes in when he wants, snuggles down on his bed and relaxes. He’s quite nervy so he needs his chill out time.

Plus he hogs the sofa, he’d probably hog the bottom of the bed too!

After a rather lot of uoheaval this year, new town, new surouns, Beaker lost his mama etc, he has been allowed to sleep on the bed. Sometimes he sleeps with the kid, sometimes on his own bed. I think it's comfort for us all. He isn't minging. Let's face it I woke uo with worse.

Husband is a night shift worker so I welcomed the company of having my dogs sleep with me.

My Jack Russell used to sleep with me every night. My great Dane used to but as shes gotten older shes finding it more difficult to get on the bed so now she only occasionally gets up when shes feeling more sprightly.

My dogs love sleeping on my bed ... but it is a treat and usually only the days the bedding gets changed.

A puppy can go from cuddles with their brothers and sisters too being alone and it must be difficult for some to make the change.

You can get a blanket, sleep with it for a couple of nights so it collects your scent and then let the puppy have this to sleep with. That way they almost have everything. Their own space and your scent ... and your bed remains a special treat.

Enjoy the cuddles

I let my dog up on my bed but he only sleeps at the end and he's only allowed to do this during the day! I wouldn't sleep with him in it as he's massive and there would be no room for us. I don't see anything wrong with a few puppy cuddles in bed

Yeah my two do, well they have the option of a dog bed, and a crate too. They are clean, bedding gets changed often. It helps a lot when I'm upset, anxious, or depression is kicking in. I get much better sleep with them there.

I just make sure to keep up training so that they know I'm still in charge.

Hiding in the shadows

I was adamant when I got Teenytinydoggo She would not sleep on my bed & has a crate downstairs & slept in that everynight

We had a giant house bunny at the time, they were the best of friends & slept in the crate together.

She didn't even try to get upstairs for the first year.

Sadly we lost our bun & 1 of the cats a few days apart.

I came home one day, couldn't find doggo downstairs, panicked I'd left her in garden before I went out.

Nope, she was curled up on my bed with the cat - the one she had never got on with!

That night, for the first time ever she cried in her crate & the cat howled.

They've been on my bed ever since.

Dogs are just like kids. The same as when a toddler climbs into their parents bed in the middle of the night. They just want to be with you all the time. I love my boy to bits and dont mind him sleeping on my bed in the slightest. I was the same though, I didn't like the idea at first and put him out the room, but the sad eyes got the better of me and he soon got his own way. I'm a sucker lol

It’s a tricky one.

My dog is crate trained but if I’m having a late morning or a afternoon snuggle he is on the bed with us

Apart from when he’s excited to see you when you first let him out he’s usually at the foot of the bed or on the floor.

He knows to keep out of the way if you’re getting on with it.

over night though he’s in his crate and both of us prefer it. I like my sleep undisturbed

Why would anyone let their dog or dogs in bed with them, just imagine having a meet and you find yourself in their bedroom, you pull the duvet back and find loads of dog hairs, awful, I'd be out of there like a shot.

Used to let my dogs sleep in my bed when I had them. My Labrador would sometimes sleep on top of me for cuddles, though normally he'd be next to me.

Up to you OP. I read this though so we still won't be letter our pets upstairs in the house anytime soon.

"Ben Sun, chief veterinarian with the California Department of Public Health, combed through medical journals to find examples of pets making people ill after sharing a bed. Among them: a 9-year-old Arizona boy developed plague after sleeping with his flea-infested cat. (Fleas are notorious plague carriers, especially in western states.) And then there’s the 60-year-old British woman who contracted meningitis after repeatedly kissing the family dog. Add in some cases of nasty parasitic and drug-resistant staph infections and it’s enough to make one purchase a futon for Fluffy and Fido."

And there we were, blindly believing everything on the Internet...

Seriously, slightly confused what your point is. So are you saying there have been no cases of people being made ill? , or are you saying that the california department of health didn't look through the journals and lied about it? Or both?

Granted we shouldn't believe everything we read. But a reputable source seems believable to me.

"Jeez there I am worrying about getting laid "

Just wait for the time when your having fun and the fella gets bitten for it.

Not forgetting those eyes watching you in the bed whilst having sex.

The worst part is the dog snoring away.

Its better to have a place outside the bedroom for the days or when you want to do something then the dog knows not to enter.

Ive been bitten a few times for play fighting with daughter though dog has been hurt a few times as well.

Had to wake a yorkshire terrier up a few times for snoring.

Sent dog into childrens room to wake them up and dogs gone back off to sleep with the children.

always liked the family dog, also have a tortoise now and hes a lay about all stretched out sunbathing.
