Where Do Your Dogs Sleep?

[Steve]

Where do your breeding dogs sleep When they are not raising puppies?

[SilverHaze]

Where ever they want - usually at the end of the bed :D

Otherwise crates on the back porch in winter, or in their runs in nicer weather.

[Rysup]

Mine are kenneled in the garage of a night. I have 4 runs, and they are either single or paired up. The Lhasa's get their own crate each.

[supercharged]

Either inside in their crates or outside on the cool tiles - depending upon the weather!

One Princess on the bed, the others in crates. I usually have older "free range" dogs, the younger one's get locked up, so they cannot wreck the place LOL

Mine sleep indoors ( kennel runs were in the garage attached to the house ) so that I know they are silent at night and I never disturb the neighbours.

1 brat dog in our bedroom in our clothes cupbaord (his choice) the others are crated in the lounge room

[Ozstar]

2 sleep on the bed, the old girl sleeps on her bed in front of the fire. Young ones sleep in crates.

Inside the house in their crates.

[SwaY]

Sway on one of the kids beds, the others in the dog room inside the house.

During the day they are "free range" inside and out.

[SparkyTansy]

All three on the lounges - the older boy sometimes in his crate (open access)

not mine but the OES sleeps on the floor in the bathroom

In the house, in crates mostly - one loose in the house but she usually sleeps in an open crate in my bedroom

[SpikesPuppy]

Ziva is on the bed with me, usually on the pillow with her head on my shoulder!!

Caber is on the bed - usually with his head on my belly, or he is in his (large) soft-crate next to my bed, he chooses.

My puppy (future breeding bitch) is currently in a crate beside my bed but will eventually be given free-range of my (our) bedroom at night

Mums collie is crated (in a 48 inch mind you!!!) most nights, but this is because she is a thief :rolleyes: if she's been good, she sleeps on the bed lol. The crate is in mum's bedroom.

[troop]

we have 3 in our bed and one in my sons bed and 3 outside in there run :rolleyes: and the cat on my daughters bed

[Bisart Dobes]

Our older two share the bed with us. The rest are c-crated inside spare room / extra lounge overnight - they have dense foam mattresses and dry bed or mink blankets to sleep on - when its really cold they have polar fleece coats on bar one who chews them off so he gets tucked in (sometimes he is still snug as a bug tucked in when I get up at 4am !!!) - they love their beds and they know which is theirs and they certainly don't like anyone else being put in their crate (but then they know which berth is theirs in the trailer as well and the same applies).

[ShesaLikeableBiBear]

Five on my bed and the entire male in a sof- crate in the living room.

PS During the day they are generally on snooza pet futons in the living room, sometimes on the leather couches or outside on canvas beds, it's up to them as we have a pet door so they have free access to where they want to be.

One girl sleeps where ever she wants - usually on my bed. Doggy futons in the living room and bedrooms. I usually crate at night until they are of an age that they don't eat everything in the house while I sleep. They also have beds on the porch that they can use through the day if they want.

[Aziah]

One on the bed, the older dogs sleep free in one room of the house, the younger ones are crated to start off, everyone is inside, I know where they are, they are warm, quiet and not disturbing the neighbours.

[Bilbo Baggins]

Young ones crated until toilet trained, around 6 months.

Free range night and day through an animal door.

All sleep on the bed ours and the daughter, she has to shut them in her room or they will join the clan in our room.

[Bokezu]

1 or 2 on the bed, they all have a turn, other three downstairs on the dog futon or lounge or chair, they all come up very early for a cuddle

[becks]

On my bed, on the sofas and at night the younger ones get crated
