You Make Me Smile – February 26, 2017

February 26, 2017 By Jodi

You make me smile, (or laugh.) The sweet, funny, loving things my dogs do on a daily basis, that brings a smile to my face, or a laugh to my lips.

Delilah, the way you make yourself SO comfortable on MY bed…

You make me smile.

Notice the pillow she has her head resting on? It’s a travel size pillow, and it’s what I use for sleeping. That pillow sits on the edge of the bed. Notice how much room is left for me?

Notice Sampson’s butt touching hers? For the longest time, they wouldn’t get on the bed at the same time. If Delilah got there first, Sampson would stay off and vice versa, but lately, they’ve both been starting out on the bed.

The good bit is, that most nights, one of them gets off the bed at some point, which affords me a wee bit of room.

Who gets the bigger portion of the bed in your house? You or the dog?

    When Callie was still with us and able to get on the bed, she slept at the foot end on the other side. Now and then Shadow would jump up, too; and I’d have the narrow strip that was left. But Shadow would soon get too hot and go sleep elsewhere. Now that Shadow has the arthritis in her elbows, she rarely jumps up on the bed anymore. I miss her soft, snuggly self! Ducky still likes to chew on sheets and pillows, so she sleeps in her crate at night.

    Dog butt-to-butt. What…you didn’t really want to sleep there did you?

    Delilah sure knows how to maximize her space! Cricket always sleeps up against Dad’s legs. Sheba used to sleep between us, and Luke would sleep in the chair most of the time, though sometimes come up on the bed.
    After we lost Sheba, the bed seemed SO empty. I’d beg Luke to come up with us, and after a few nights he finally started sleeping with us all of the time. He must have figured out how much I needed it. ♥

    In the winter, Hailey hogs the bed. Phod is a floor sleeper. In the summer when it is hot we get the bed to ourselves!

    Oh, D! That looks SOOOOO comfy! You and Sampson AND the little babydoll. That is one crowded family bed. I am tiny enough for Mom to flat-out pick me up and move me out of the way. I inch back against her little by little anyway…. It’s a losing battle for her.

    Love and licks,
    Cupcake

    Looks like she owns the bed!! Dante and Ziva sleep on their own giant bed together cause our human bed isn’t big enough for us to be comfy with them when sleeping. However movie snuggle time the bed is our family spot.

    when lily was still able to get up on our bed she would lie on the end of the bed. i would have to sleep curled up but didn’t really mind. i liked the feel of her body next to mine. now she sleeps on a sheet covering the rug right next to our bed. i really miss having her jump up on the bed to be with us..

    It’s amazing how much space a corgi can take up, let alone two! I wouldn’t have it any other way!

    Ha Ha, it’s a nightly battle.

    Honey is small. But she’s very wiggly. The kidney pokes at 3 a.m. while she’s chasing rabbits in her dreams are especially fun.

    Sounds like here, one of my cats, Sammy gets on my pillows and I get 1/4 of them if I am lucky.
