Many dog parents have a headache, that is, the dog always wants to sleep on the owner's bed, and the petite dog wants to sleep with the owner. But if a Great Dane-like dog also wants to sleep with its owner, it's not a good feeling. So why do dogs like to sleep next to their owners?
The reason for this is simple, because Petsdogs stay in the puppy stage for life in many ways. So even as adult dogs, they see their owners as pseudo-parents; it's natural to want to curl up next to the mother. In this case, the mother is not necessarily the hostess. If the dog is usually closer to the male owner in the home, then the male owner becomes his surrogate mother and the person he wishes to sleep with. Whether it is a male or female owner, if one of them sleeps with a dog in his arms every night, it will definitely bring trouble to the marriage, and even lead to the breakdown of the family.
Many dogs still want to be as close to their group as possible when sleeping, even if they are strictly trained domestic dogs who are usually not allowed to be close to the bed. In the wild, when several puppies are left in the kennel, they will of course sleep huddled together. Only when the dogs are driven out enough will they sleep alone away from the dogs.
So, too, if a dog is kicked out of its owner's room every night, it feels like it's being kicked out by a pack. Of course, if it's a pack of guard dogs or a pack of hounds, there won't be such a problem because they'll keep each other company. However, if it is a pet dog that lives alone with its owner, it will find it difficult to understand why it has to avoid it when it is time to sleep, and has to separate from its partner .
In this regard, it is recommended that most families with dogs make a compromise solution: of course, the dog cannot sleep in the bed, but let it sleep as close to the bedroom as possible, or on the edge of the bed. In this way, the dog may be spared from suffering too much mental trauma each night.
