Well, my dogs have two beds each but they can use each other's beds or my bed or the couch or the chairs.

Same with him. Multiple beds but we also have a couch and chairs and my bed. He has his own chair.

I was adamant about letting my current dogs on the furniture. I bond with my dogs so much better when they are allowed to. My parents' dogs I grew up with weren't allowed on the furniture or even an entire floor of the house for most of their lives. I didn't have as much of a connection with those dogs.

Awww yeah ours were always allowed on the furniture but I can’t imagine not allowing them on a whole entire floor!

They were very stinky, heavy shedding dogs so I can understand why they weren't allowed in the main living spaces. But those dogs got very bored when no one was on their floor (the walk-out basement).

My parents were pretty strict when we had six dogs (you kinda have to be though with that many ) not allowed on furniture or in the kitchen (though due to moving to new house with different floor plan they didn’t keep up with the kitchen rule) I like sleeping with puppy

Either way we are making sacrifices to have our dogs in our beds with us. Dorie doesn't just use the top blanket - she's a burrower (as are most Bostons) - and she can leave some nasty stuff on the sheets!
