• Let me guess….......you don't have children. We don't let our dogs in our bed either. A bed is for a husband and wife......not dogs!!


  • Yes, I have children….Basenji children:) ......I like to think I'm part of the pack, and the pack sleeps together!!!!!! "pack solidarity forever"!!!!!!!!;)


  • I have a son and my dogs sleep with me and my child sleeps in his room. I don't get the connection to having children and your dog sleeping with you. Sometimes, on the weekends, its both dogs, one cat and the two of us. I bought a king size bed so we all fit. 😃


  • Yeap I have a 12 year old and when my husband goes to work, it's our B, my daughter me. Precious moments.

    Yikes! A bed is for husband and wife? What if you are single? Do you have to sleep on the floor?

    We have dogs in the bed, and a three year old (not in the bed…he has his own bed). So I guess we managed to do the husband-wife thing....


  • :o Huh? :o LOL!!

    LOL, I'm not sure what the husband/wife thing is all about either😕 . All THREE of us sleep in the bed together but I guess I concider all of us to be part of the same family. To each his own, I suppose.


  • Yikes….....get over it

    Get over what???

    Seems to me, you need to get over people doing what they want in and with their own bed….

    I think this thread has veered of of the topic of Basenjis, so this will be my last post...feel free to have the last word.


  • Last night was especially comfy…A little chilly, I had the bedroom window cracked, quilt on top, two "B's"..... one behind my knees, one curled up by my stomach. Doesn't get any better!!!!:)


  • It is especially nice when it's a little chilly to have a B curled up next to you.

    Well said Andrea!


  • Bed sleeping is definitely a personal choice. Mine sleep with me for a little bit then they go to the couch or crate.


  • We have four B's and a mutt terrier sleeping with us and my Son get's the other two B's. I guess it's a personal choice as to what does or doesn't crawl in your bed with you. I love my B's and my wife…....and I sleep with all of them.:D 😃 😃

    Willy generally prefers five star accomadations but has to suffer along with the rest of us.:eek:

    It's especially nice anytime!! 😉


  • Squiggy spent, in his first home, his nights (and my guess days) locked in an outside basement on the step closest to the top. No blanket and ended up with calluses on his legs from the steps.
    Now, in his FOREVER home, he sleeps anywhere he darn well pleases 🙂
    Which is in the middle of my bed, on top of the covers. He only likes to be covered in the mornings when I am getting ready and only with his blanket.

    Spoiled BRAT :p


  • I like that story! 🙂 good going!


  • We use to have a Queen size bed, one husband, two basenjis and a cat. We upgraded to a King Size bed and we still don't have room in our bed!


  • Lulu sleeps with me in my bed and takes whole bed, and sometimes snores…


  • Been a while since anyone wrote here, but I have to chime in. My B and my Rat terrier and my hubby, and me of course all share a queen size bed. My hubby leaves early morning and I have two loving dogs to keep me warm. And as someone said a while back, I don't have children yet, atleast not human children!
