Do you let your dogs on the sofa?

I used to but I'm getting fed up of hoovering off the hair everyday.

@adaline tbh it would be criminal not to share their deliciousness. My boy was diagnosed with epilepsy yesterday. Had 2 seizures Weds - one massive one. You can imagine the state ive been in!!!

@QueenOfOversharing oh no - so sorry to hear that Sad hope he's okay? It's pretty common in beagles from what I hear.

Fingers crossed he's okay with the right treatment Flowers

Of course our dog is allowed on the sofa. She sleeps with us, too.

@adaline he's ok when he's not having one, but the big one was so terrifying. I stayed really calm then fell apart when he came round. He started meds yesterday, but it's trial & error. Yes - beagles seem to get it. But there's a fantastic fb page.

@Whynosnowyet sorry, but the big one told him it was ok. What was he to do? 🤷🏼‍♀️😂

My greyhound has her own sofa.

She still goes on the main sofa. So do the other 2. I use throws which get changed and washed regularly.

Don't see the problem.

Yes - on the sofa, the cushions, the bed and in the bed too!

@ivfbabymomma1 what breed are your dogs?

It seems someone replaced dpuppy's feet with springs and there is no keeping her off!!

Never mind we need a bigger boat, we need a bigger couch!

Yes ddog moves from sofa to sofa depending on who she wants to sit with. She never lies on the floor if there is space on the sofas or someone's knee.

I've not seen long haired chihuahuas before - they are lovely Smile

My dog is definitely not allowed on the sofa. Nor does he lie along the back of it like a cat. 😝
