Georgie has slept with me ever since I brought her home...and while I'm dogsitting for my parents' boxer, Mattie climbs in, too. But she heads straight for the pillows!
 
Tiger will usually get in between Jerry and I in bed. Although if we are up talking too loud he gets up and jumps on the floor real loud and curls up near the closet door and gives one of those annoyed sighs and goes to sleep. But by morning, he is always snuggled right back between us.

If you see my JAWS post you will see that Junior will always sleep in th ebed at our in laws! LOL!

Junior assumes that the guest bed is his during the day (near the front window) and his nightly bed is on ours. He even repositions the pillows to his comfort!! LOL
GREAT POLL

Ours do a bit of both because we make them sleep downstairs in their own baskets at night, but then Mozart wakes us up early (ie 6 am) to let them upstairs to join us for a lie-in :D

His body clock is amazing as he wakes up at the same time every morning and either my hubby or I has to stumble downstairs (still half asleep) to let them out of the kitchen.

Then it's a mad dash back upstairs because if they get there first they take up the best spots evilicon

We very occasionally let them sleep on the bed but it always gets too crowded with all four of us up there. It usually ends up with my hubby and I clinging to opposite sides of the bed with Cassie and Mozart spread out between us (taking up most of the room!).

Our dogs also like to get under the covers, but then they get too hot and get out of bed, usually dragging the covers with them so we are woken up shivering :mad:

We do enjoy our morning lie-ins with the dogs though as we get the best boxer cuddles :)

Hi Vanessa & Anabelle!

YES-they BOTH sleep in our bed. We just bought a KING size bed a while ago-and my husband and I sleep on the edge. While they get ALL the room in the middle. It is very cramped BUT their is nothing better than snuggling with my boxer babies!:D

sleeping on the bed

Tyson has been sleeping on the bed with us since we brought him home, which was about a month and a half ago. Sometimes he will sleep on the floor with Moose, or under the bed. He has to be right between us with his legs straight out. He wakes up when the alarm goes off and lets me know that I have to get up too! We took the dogs camping with us over the long weekend, Tyson had his very own chair to curl up on around the camp fire. He had a blanket and all. And as soon as we went to bed, he would go straight under the sleeping bag where is was warm. :) And now he is covered in sap and I don't know how to get it off :( he has a sappy butt, lol. Its sorta cute.

As much as I love Dempsey there is no way he's sleeping in our bed. As a matter of fact Dempsey is only rarely allowed upstairs where the bedrooms are. He gets his occasional bath (which he loves) in the upstairs bathroom, and occasionally he is allowed to go upstairs and wake-up my son. That's a real treat for him (Dempsey that is). My son just giggles silly as Dempsey wakes him with Boxer kisses. Then my son tries to hide under the covers as Dempsey pushes his nose under them to give more Boxer kisses. I think that if Dempsey were to sleep upstairs now, the novelty would wear off, and it wouldn't be as much fun. Ever since we got Dempsey I wanted him to sleep in my sons room, but the Mrs. wanted the upstairs to be, for the most part, a dog free zone. I guess it's for the best as we're getting a Boxer pup two weeks from Saturday. Two in his room full time would be too much.
 
Though my official poll answer is NO, there are exceptions :)

My husband does not want the Boxers in bed with us. But when I travel to shows, I always let them sleep with me. I am leaving in the morning with Beau for shows this weekend. If he is a good boy, he will be snuggling with me to sleep in bed :)

Bossk used to enjoy an occasional snooze with us on the bed. He still climbs up if it is just me. Once Mark comes to bed, he usually retires to his pillow in his kennel. He hasn't been too fond of sleeping in a full bed ever since that night I accidently pushed him off the foot. :LOL: I heard a giant thud..sat up to see what it was ..and Bossk was sitting there looking like "what just happened?" :LOL:
