Woman Is Regarded As The A**hole For Letting Her Dog Sleep In Bed Instead Of Her Boyfriend

"I told him that if I'm sleeping in the bed the dog is sleeping with me and now he's slept on the couch for the last few nights and hasn't really talked to me much."

Most veterinarians agree that dogs require 12 to 14 hours of sleep daily. Puppies sleep much longer, frequently up to 15 to 18 hours daily.

In dogs of any age, all of that sleep does not come in one lengthy period there is a lot of altering between high-energy episodes and napping. Puppies, in particular, are prone to rapid shifts, from cyclones of activity to naps in the blink of an eye.

Dogs require more sleep than humans do. While many dogs go to sleep quickly, some struggle to do so.

In such instances, a consistent bedtime regimen may be beneficial. It can be as simple as going outdoors for a few minutes, coming back in, removing their collar, and finishing with a little stroking session near the dog's sleeping spot.

One of the pleasures of living with dogs is watching them asleep. Another advantage is the comfort of sharing your bed with them.

Many people share a bed with their dogs for emotional comfort and warmth (have you heard the expression "three-dog night"? ) or because the mattress is their favorite position. However, while it makes people happy, you may wonder if it’s something you should do.

However, in terms of having a partner who needs to take a rest and a dog, who would you have as a sleeping companion? A Redditor shared how she chose her dog to sleep beside her, and people were mad at her for not considering her partner.

OP shared how she moved in with her bf, bringing her dog with her.

"If you are afraid that your boyfriend is going to leave you if your honest, you aren't dating your boyfriend, your lies are."

His Boyfriend must really love her because he excuses himself for the dog.

"Specially since he has to sleep on the couch."

A rule that will benefit everyone.

Better to put your dog on trainings for you to easily deal with his stubbornness.

Heavy work needs a deep and peaceful rest for another day to face.

"This will end in a breakup."

Losing me or train your dog.

"Move out and sleep with the dog or stay and sleep with your boyfriend."

The dog over your boyfriend's concern of not getting enough sleep.

Letting your dog sleep peacefully while your boyfriend's having hard time sleeping in his own bed and in his own house.

"Trained to evacuate the bed when he's asked to and to not squeeze himself in if the bed is occupied."

As if your boyfriend has to do anything with your dog.

"If he wants the dog out of the bed, kick the dog out of the bed."

There's this thing called 'dog bed' made specifically for dogs.

Putting rules for dogs such as not sleeping in the bed is easy if you train them and get some treats.

"You seem very dismissive of this part."

Your boyfriend is considerate by the idea of letting your dog sleep for your comfort in the first place, but also put in your mind that it's not your house.

"The environment that you used to live is not for everyone to understand and take consideration.

"I couldn't imagine him staying with you much longer if you don't have empathy for him."

Compromise is important in a relationship, especially if both of you have different preferences and situations. OP should have been more understanding of her boyfriend instead of kicking him out of his bed since he had tried to let the dog sleep with them but ended up not having enough sleep.
