I love my pupper dog, I think it's great how people love and adore their pets but at the same time, they should not be the king of the castle, they are animals who very much need love and care and I love doing this persoanlly but when it is time for hubby to be with me, the dog and the cat are lead into a  different direction, yea, we have times when the cat is on our laps and the dog is getting his belly rubs,LOL but in my household, the humans come first, as a wife, it's nice to know where all the excitement comes from, it certainly isn't comin from my dog/caLOLLLLLL. The lady who allows the dog to droll on her husbands pillow is  very wrong and disrespectful toward her husband, I don't care how much she loves her dog, her husband deserves some respect. I f I were him, I certainly wouldn't want to be in bed with her, i would take HER pillow, go to another room and geta good night sleep and leave her withher dog AND the drolled on pillow.She has made her dog king of her castle and in the process of it, she is losing her marriage and to me that is a shame. hopefully since she has been on the show, she has learned to love and respect her husband and to be a wife, it's ok to love the dog but not ok to make your spouse the outcast............

I am proud to say that I too sleep with our dogs.  My husband and I are completely content sleeping with our 3 year old Great Dane, 11 year old Catahoula Cur and our 5 year old poodle and on occassion we have a cat or two join in.  Of course our bed is very much crowded but we wouldn't have it any other way.  Our Great Dane is our baby.  He loves to sleep under the covers.  When it's time to go to bed, he stands at my side of the bed and waits for me to raise the covers so he can crawl in.  The others sleep on top of the covers.  Of course, trying to stay covered is a problem but we have managed for years.  I don't know if I could sleep in a bed with just my husband and myself since we have been sleeping with animals most of our married life which has been over 30 years now.  We wouldn't change a thing, in fact when our 7 month old grandson comes to spend the night, he too gets to sleep with us and the dogs and we all manage to get a good nights sleep.
