Small dog question

[fishoholic]

Hi, my small dog, a boston terrier/italian greyhound cross, likes to sleep under the covers with us at night. Is this normal? does anyone else's small dogs do this? Just wondering thanks.

my dog sleeps with his head right on my pilow. I dont mind it now but when he was a puppy he farted alot.

I have a Italian Greyhound He does it when we let him in the room. I believe it is quite common for dogs to do.

Yup, our Jack Russell Terrorists do it all the time.

Wow where you get those trained?

They're born that way. The trick is training the owners how to live with them :lol:

If you're going to sleep in my house you better expect 2 Daschunds and if you dont have covers, like on the couch, you will get some or they wont let you sleep.

Some breeds just go under covers more than others.... Terriers are "earth" dogs and were mainly bred for hunting vermin in holes. They are comfortable hidden under things. Personally, I don't know how they breath under there all night..... I can't stand my face covered by blankets.

Our terrorists are very well behaved.... we've been trained by Bark Busters to be the pack leaders and it works VERY well!

If my dog even tried to sleep in my bed....... There would be a huge problem.

Dobies are always chilly at night too, but her size is pretty abtrusive. I got her some flannel jammies made. It's a loose fitting garment, just kind of drapes over her on the bed at night and she sleeps through without any inclination of crawling under the covers anymore. I LOVE it. :lol:

I have a Boston terrier and I find he gets cold very easily. I don't let him sleep on the bed though because he is a stinky little guy. I find him wrapped up under his blankets when I wake him up in the morning. These dogs are well known for their flatulence problem and when you put a Boston terrier and a Boxer together it can get quite stinky. The dogs have their own room because of that :biggrin:

[SeaShell]

hahaha, Stan! We used to have a BT named Spike. He snored so loudly that he had his own room too! Stink was a whole other matter with that dog.... sometimes he'd fart, look back, look at US with disgust, and leave the room himself! Man, I miss that dog...... he had the neatest personality; all the Bostons do.

Both my dalmatians sleep under the covers. One whines and freaks out if she isn't under them when everyone gets into bed. We actually ended up buying a king bed so everyone could be comfortable!
