Dogs love sleeping next to their favorite people because it makes them feel safe, warm, and loved. Experts say it’s one of the ways they show trust and affection, and it might even help them (and you) sleep better.
Why your dog chooses your bed over theirs
1. They just want to be close to you
At the end of the day, most dogs are just big softies. They feel happiest when they’re near their humans. Sharing a bed gives them that closeness, especially during the night when they might feel a little more vulnerable. Being near you helps them feel safe and relaxed.
2. It’s warmer and smells like you
Dogs have an incredible sense of smell, and your bed probably smells like a mix of you and them—which is super comforting to them. Plus, your body heat turns your bed into the ultimate cozy spot. Who wouldn’t want that?
