Mine does not often lay just anywhere either, only on hot summer nights - what are they anyway?!!! He does sit on the rug sometimes as he likes to watch Animal Planet: anything about lions and big cats, dogs etc, any vet programme. He sits bolt upright in front of the TV. I have to be a bit careful about what he watches and if it says there are flashing lights etc, I have to make him go in his bed because of his epilepsy!

Subject: [guidedogchat] Re: BedZym sleeps on the upstairs landing, something I had to do when my wife was alive because she had to have a hospital bed downstairs, and it was fair enough for me to have the dog upstairs with me. He's fine with this, and often takes himself off to bed about 9pm, though I don't tell him to go.
I have the bedroom door shut at night, but I'm within earshot of Zym if he wakes up, but that's pretty rare.
If I have a flop in the day-time, I leave the door open, and often Zym will want to come in and lie down by the bed. He's very good and doesn't often make a fuss, unless he's howling to go out for some reason. I have to watch where I'm treading when I get up, though, as he's often in some obscure corner where I won't notice him.

My Border Collie had a nice bed at the bottom of the stairs but her favourite trick was to burl up ont he floor at the foot of the stairs so if you came bumbling down 3 quarters asleep in the night for a wee you'd tread on her!! 3 years after she died, I still step round the places she liked to sleep. Wren has a mat on the landing and one my side of the bed, she usually starts off by sleeping on the landing but is always down beside me if I ever wake in the night.

If we go to a hotel, she sleeps on the floor on her mat next to the bed. Previous dogs have slept in a crate. Some previous dogs have slept in crates in a different room, but I prefer to have them in the same room. Cait On Feb 28, 2014, at 1:58 PM, Nadine Lattimore wrote:
