You guessed right and let him get away with it. Every time. He loves shoes and socks too.

my dog used to chew everything socks shoes even rugs when she was young.my mum bought a rug for the hall way and the dog came running into the sitting room with it half chewed she was under a year old then.thankfully she grew out of it.

They don’t steal the bed. They own every bed in your house. They just allow you to use one to sleep on.

my dog has her own big comfy bed but she always jumps up on our bed at night and when we move she growls at us so you either kick her off or just let her get her own way.

Yeah, he sleeps with us too. I’m currently sat on the bed and he’s beside me lying on his back, dreaming. His paws are twitching away!

🤔 when she growls she is saying “quit moving...I’m trying to sleep here HUMANS!”

Nope. Cocker spaniel / poodle cross. Slightly more cocker than poo!

Aww, adorable 😍 I've got chihuahuas, they're long haired and fluffy like living teddy bears. They're so devoted and never judge you, they always know when you need them. I love them so much and would never be without them 💗

Hi, now that is the type of dog I would like. Is he a cocka poo or similar. We had an Airedale Terrior years ago but now in our mid 70s and don’t want a dog that is too giddy. Our young grandkids said they would help but know the novelty wears off with kids. I do think would help my anxiety but it’s a big step to take. Something to think about x

Yes, he’s a cockapoo. He’s not very giddy and has a lovely temperament. You might also want to consider a cavalier King Charles/poodle cross or cavapoos as they are called. They are slightly smaller in size and less giddy than a cockerpoo.

It was my wife’s idea to get a dog. I wasn’t so keen because of the commitment and being at work all day. Fortunately, she never listened to me. I’m now completely besotted, he follows me everywhere and is more a labour of love, not a commitment!

Sweet baby face

Cats also make great companions. But how does one deal with losing a beloved pet? It really hurt. I wasn't able to get a replacement--I think that would have made a lot of difference and recommend it.

And they always think that you rock. Totally agree. Use that for all it's worth.
