Do you let your boxer sleep in bed with you?

Sophie will lay in bed with us at night while we either watch t.v. or read and then she goes in her crate at 10pm. We get her up about 1-2am for a potty break and back in her crate. She is usually up for good between 5:30-6am and comes into our bed until we get up. She hasn't had any accidents, she did have 1 or 2 while she was sick with vaginitis, but other than that she is OUT! She loves the little time she gets with us in our bed!

Funny side note: My DH was adiment against the "puppy" being in our bed, on the couch, etc...but the first week we got Sophie he was wrapped around her little paw...she was in our bed (DH), our couch (DH).....the "tough" act went right out the window as soon as he saw her for the first time! Big softie!

I think the real question is do our boxers let US sleep with THEM in OUR beds! Almost every night Rufus starts out with us on the bed, but after about 30 minutes, he jumps down on his own and goes to his own bed. Although I contort myself into very uncomfortable positions to accomodate him, I'm sure he is getting off of the bed because HE thinks WE are taking up too much room! Go figure... :)

Basil and Streets have always slept with me, in fact thats why I ended up taking them. My sister had found them abandoned in a park, and I started living with her a couple of days after. Well, the dogs just decided that my sleeping bag was the best place to sleep, so every morning I would find two puppies in there with me.
Three years later I still sleep with them every night, except now they each weigh in at about 80lbs, so my boyfriend and I kind of have to find some little corner of the bed.

We got Chopper when he was 3 months old and he stayed in his crate at night for about 2 1/2 months. When I had to go out of town for a week my DH decided to let Chopper sleep with him (I guess he needed the company) Now Chopper lets us sleep with him in his King size bed. No accidents so far, we usually get up for a potty break around 3am and then it's back off to sleep until 5:30 for breakfast when I get up.

Samson and Hannah both sleep in their crates at night. When they get tired, they actually walk over to the crate themselves and go to sleep. They'll also run in if you tell them to go to bed.

I actually read this to help decide when might be a good time to let Baxter sleep in bed with me. Maggie starts off at the end of the bed- her choice, ends up on the huge comfy down chair to sleep. Baxter starts off next to me in bed, then I move him to the crate half asleep- around 11:30-12- he doesn't wake up during the night. I am afraid he'll wake up to pee and I wont get up so he'll pee on the bed or me.
