To leave daughter sleeping in “human Dog bed “

DD 10 was gifted a human sized dog bed for Xmas which was a huge hit ( although dog is slightly confused and miffed that it’s not hers 😂)
currently it’s in the living room —
she has always likes fluffy comfy things. She has complex health conditions that means she needs a resting place some days in the living room. I thought this was ideal. We have always struggled with her at night time - a very poor sleeper.
xmas night she wanted to camp out in living room which I didn’t think any harm of. She was out like a light for 11 hours. Put that down to maybe a busy Xmas day and a fluke.
but then last night we were watching a movie before bed and she fell asleep and is still sound asleep peacefully in the “ human dog bed “ now. I think this is the first time in 10 years that she wasn’t awake in the night.
it’s not thin and has a sort of memory foam bottom.
I mean I’m sure I can’t leave her to sleep in it forever by I’m not denying we are enjoying the sleep ???

I wouldn't call it a human dog bed - just a cosy rround bed or something, a curled up cosy bed?

Where is the fun in that though?

Could you send the link please. I did search Jolitac but the dog bed that came up isn't actually Jolitac...thank you!

The only thing I would suggest is that sleeping mattresses are usually raised a bit to allow airflow so condensation and damp don't build up on the floor or in the mattress. If she's comfortable and sleeping, it sounds great.
