That's cool all, but understand that it's gross to someone who doesn't know your dog. Dog hair and smell is not pleasant, especially to sleep in.

Nah, I understand, I do. For me, dogs have been a huge part of my life since I was like 6. I get that not everyone is the same way, but dog on the bed is basically the best thing to me.

And I have no illusions that my dog doesn't have a smell. She does, which is why I have a blanket covering my bed just for her. It also keeps her hair from getting into the sheets.

But when it comes down to it, it's one of those fundamental things that if someone was like "dog or me", it's pretty much dog every time. Fortunately, it hasn't been an issue thus far

so alone ;_;

, but like your post it seems like it's something that would come up early.

The sleep thing is bad enough, but everything you described would be a deal breaker for me.

Personally, my wife's dog used to sleep in the bed with her before we met, but part of the compromise of the relationship was that that would stop.

 

[Nappuccino]

Why does the dog get to be middle spoon?

Middle spoon is the best spoon.

 

[boiled goose]

I was dating a girl like this.
Nasty and i hated it. Compromise was dog not in bed when i stay over.

Dog on the bed is one thing. But this was dog inside the sheets.

You've hung out a couple of times and after you hang out at her place once you're already asking her where you'd sleep and expecting her to do anything differently with her dog? Weird OP, he outranks you by a couple miles at this point.

 

[ClosingADoor]

Dog at the foot of the bed is acceptable. Anything else not. At least for me.

That's not really what happened, just told a quick story to frame the question

Yeah, I'm not a dog person by any means, but this I can understand. It's like if a girl came over a couple of times and was like "uhhh all of your video game stuff needs to go now".
Not happening.

 

[Pai Pai Master]

That's pretty unhygienic and you don't seem to be cool with it at all so yeah I'd say it's a dealbreaker

 

[King Al B]

Does she purchase an excessive amount of peanut butter and keep a jar in her night stand?

 

[hom3land]

I wish our dog would sleep us. Minute she sees us she jumps off the bed and leaves.



Don't ever get a shiba. Unless you want a cat that you can walk.

Stop going down on yourself you sick freak.

I mean, I was only joking but if you want to get into the logistics of it then I would have to suck my hand to be considering going down on myself.

 

[JORMBO]

I have two dogs that sleep on my bed. I have a big bed so they sleep where the 2nd person would normally be. There's plenty of room if it's just me.

If someone else if over they (the dogs) don't really like the crowding and sleep on the floor. I've never had a problem.

 

[wenis]

yes. dealbreaker.

human beds are for humans. dog beds are for dogs. scust if you mix and match.

 

[Hazanko]

Recently started talking to a girl, and we hung out a couple of times. I go over to her house for the first time. She is in love with her dog. Putting it nicely, it is obnoxious. Loud, jumps all over me, scratches, gets hair everywhere, smelly. She's constantly making out with it, which I think is gross as that thing did not have good breath. and the whole apt is torn up and covered in hair.

Anyways, come to find out she sleeps with it. Every night. I asked her where I'd sleep and she said it would be in between us. I asked her if the dog could sleep somewhere else and she said absolutely not.

Is a girl sleeping with her dog a deal breaker? Like if she won't budge.

Deal breaker for sure.

 

[Omegasquash]

Yes. Sounds like you don't like the dog, and that's part of the package. Move along.

pretty much

 

[Daingurse]

I sleep with my Bichon in the bed all the time, so this isn't really a big deal to me. If it's a deal breaker for you though, then it is what it is. You do what ever works best for you.

 

[Sun Bather]

Demand it to be put down. It's clearly the only reasonable solution.

Or go on tinder again.

 

[Mr Git]

It might not be a deal breaker now, but when it comes to banging and the dog tries to get involved.. It probably will be.

You're not concerned about the dirt and junk getting in your bed? Granted your dog could be a little cleaner than our disgusting monster. But her sleeping in the bed would basically be us lying in dirt and shit and saliva.

 

[rjinaz]

My dog sleeps with me every night. But I'm single. If I start dating I slowly start to ween her away from sleeping on the bed if I know I'm going to start having a girl over.

Yeah this is creepy. I mean I love my dog, but she's my family. You don't make out with family lol. Seems like a strange situation OP.

 

[Amentallica]

People sleep with their pets. It's not an unusual thing. At least not here in New York City or anywhere in the tristate area. I, and many others like me, love our pets. We keep them clean as much as reasonably possible, therefore sleeping with them is a nonissue. Some of you should stop making it into one.

And it's an absolute deal breaker if a significant other can't accept my dog as the closest thing to me in my life. On topic, though, I don't "make out" with my dog. That's too much. And she should clean up after the pet.

People pushing their own way of life as if it's the only acceptable one. Basically. Show me a study that says having a dog sleep in your bed leaves to health issues then we'll talk. Never had any issues in years. That said. I would never let my dog sleep IN my bed. Just on the comforter.

She's constantly making out with it

Today I learned that people see 'making out with a dog' and take it literally instead of realizing that it means they let the dog lick their face.

Unless that isn't what this means, in which case, reference several gifs posted throughout. Edit: Confirmed above by OP, so we're in the clear.

That's the thing, though - you're assuming like everyone is a super responsible pet owner.
I can't tell you how many houses I've been in that smell like piss/shit because they literally don't care where their animals use the bathroom and they won't clean it up for days.

Edit: Missed the part where you said she should clean up after her pet, but yeah.

Do her doggy style while her dog watches.

a lot of times it just means the dog licks while the person kisses.

Best to let sleeping dogs lie, OP.

I'm assuming what? That there are responsible pet owners? Of course I am assuming that because not everyone is filthy and incapable of caring for their pets. I am talking about people who can. I am one of those people.

 

[MoG EclipsE]

Ya it's a deal breaker. The bed is not a place for the dog, seriously.

 

[KPJZKC]

D-d-d-d-deal breaker

 

[Hypemaster]

By make out I mean she like stoops down and makes a kissy face and the dog licks the fuck outta her lips, chin, face. It's really gross.

And the bed was covered in dog hair and smelled terrible. I'm generally a clean person but could never stand living like this. She sleeps with it like next to her or cuddled up to it, not with it at the foot of the bed. My bed is the last place I'd want to be all hairy and smelling like dog.



Any attempts to rationalize its behavior fall flat on their face when faced with the reality of the situation. I don't own a dog but I enjoy seeing them at people's places and playing with them. But it's ridiculous to say I hate dogs if I don't want the constant smell and hair everywhere. That's unclean, period. Plus this particular dog is not pleasant to be around. We have dog owners in this thread agreeing that the behavior is unwanted too.

Thank you, don't get what people are so offended about that they think if you don't like a dog sleeping in the same bed as you then you clearly must not be a dog person or like dogs.

Ummm you don't wash your hands after going to the bathroom?

 

[teruterubozu]

Also there are definitely dog-owning houses that smell fine. They're in the small minority though.

I find cat owners to be worse when it comes to house smell. For some reason, they're completely oblivious to kitty litter odor.

Do dogs brush their teeth after licking themselves, eating their own vomit, etc.?
Kind of off-topic, but my friend stopped letting her cat on her bed after I pointed out that they're literally just stomping around in their own pee/poop in the litterbox.

But as I said before, this is just dog people versus non dog people.

Yeah, also depends on what kind of litter they use and how often they scoop it. So many people are so lazy about it and they just get used to the smell, which is absolutely disgusting.

 

[Bold One]

Dogs smell, sorry Dog owners, its the first thing we non-dog owners smell when we enter your house, and believe me when I say, its unpleasant,

regarding the OP, the fact the that the dog sheds, smells, and the girl makes out with it and sleeps in the same bed...

All the NOPE in the world

 

[zeemumu]

You mean like sleeping at the foot of the bed, right? That's not that creepy. Letting it lick your face is kinda gross, though.

 

[TylerD]

I was watching a porn video yesterday (amateur) and they are having sex with the dog in bed. So creepy. The intercourse was hot but too weird for me. Watch the video and then decide based on that. Cause it will happen.

Pretty sure they stream or used to stream on Chaturbate. Comment about the dog and get silenced!

 

[Sun Bather]

Clearly is for some.

 

[Sparrowhawk]

To me, it just depends on how often she cleans her dog. Like, people let their dogs roll around outside and then let them under the covers in their own bed. I am totally not about that life.

 

[JORMBO]

I dunno. They don't really seem that dirty. I do put a blanket down over the area they sleep and I wash that every week. It never seems to get anything on it other then hair. The main bedding is always clean.

I live in an apartment (no yard) so most of the times the dogs are getting exercise it is me walking them on a leash at the park. If they go to the dog park I brush them afterwards, or bath them if they get dirty enough.

 

[Vincent Grayson]

I have a dog. She's a cool dog. But she is never, ever allowed in my fucking room, much less my bed.

Fuck that noise OP. Dealbreaker for shiz.
