We have a dog (11lbs cairn) and cat (8lbs himilayan), so both pretty small. The pup sleeps above my head on my pillow, and the cat sleeps above my girlfriend's head on her pillow. If I look up at night I get my forehead licked, if she looks up she gets swatted in the face. good times
LMAO, Highwyre! Your story reminds me a something I heard on "Lauren and Wally" one morning. (WROR) It was about how to get a cat and dog to take their medicine. Have you ever heard it? Having had both cats and dogs, I was in hysterics at work listening!
My dog, Mickey, sleeps either on the floor at the foot of my bed or in the doorway to my bedroom. Total protection mode.
i have 4 saint bernards who usually want to sleep with me, and they do and then i end up getting squished between them durning the middle of the night because they want to squeeze as close to me as they can and sometimes during the summer months they tend to be a big winter blanket and it gets too hot under ther fur for them to be sleeping with me and then they get up and move but during the winter nights,im pretty much sleeping under them and even thogh their fur is getting too long for me to sleep comfortably, i tend to fall asleep before i notice because sometimes their fur covers my head and face, so i get fur in my mouth and nose sometims, and then when i wake up i sometimes have fur in my mouth and nose, but more then one time their hair got really long and ended up touching the floor and then they would sleep with me and their hair would cover me. after i fell asleep and tossed and turned a little, i was literally wrapped from head to toe, (im only 4 foot 4 inches due to a birth defect and the dogs are 5 foot 3 inches when standing on their hind legs) in a cocoon of dog hair by the next morning and getting out of that wasnt that fun, lots of very restricted movement, (my body, hands and legs sometimes got caught in one or more knots and the more i struggled the tighter it would get) struggling and squirming with that.
this is the 2nd time i have read this post .... albeit the original was months ago......
my 2 are happily crate trained with the occasional treat of sleeping in my bed, when in bed my female likes to lay as close to/up against my side as possible...
my male likes to sleep between my legs.
both require me to allow them under the blankets lol
I have 2 collies and they start out sleeping in bed with us but the girl goes to her crate after a while. All my dogs have slept in bed with us and they do tend to keep you warm on cold nights.

As much as I have tried in the past two years to get Mickey to sleep with me, nothing will make him stay on the bed once I turn out the light. He was sooo well trained by his original owners that I can't "untrain" him! Which is good actually. He does not jump up on most furniture at all. He will jump up on the bed when I first go to bed but then after playing for a few minutes and lying down, he will just jump down and go into his "protection" mode. I guess I should be grateful but I miss snuggling with my big ball of fur.
