I really had to laugh at the story. When we got our furbaby in January, my DH said no to her sleeping on the bed or even getting on the couch. So what happened ?? Well I am crowded out on the nights that he is home (as he works nights Tues-Saturday). She was supposed to be my dog, but ended up his babygirl, which really is fine,its teaching him patience! As all the dogs in the past were my furbabies, now its his turn. She sure has him wrapped around her little claw!LOL Man I so miss having the bed to myself !LOL
