It doesn't happen often, but it did last night and again this morning-- Caprice and Canon both slept with us on the bed. I wish I could have taken a picture, but since I was in bed with them, that made it kind of hard. When Canon first came to live with us, he slept in his crate, but it didn't seem long at all before he was making his bid for the bed. Caprice would be on the bed, but when Canon came near it, she growled at him. I reprimanded her and invited Canon up. Eventually, Caprice would get up and on the loveseat. Canon was wary of Caprice. If he got off the bed in the middle of the night and Caprice was up, he walked back and forth between Michael and me, sticking his nose under the covers-- in our faces, our butts, whatever he found. I had to get up, show him a clear path to the bed, and beg him to come up so he wouldn't be bothering us.
Things have changed now. Canon has charge of the bed. I haven't seen him growl at Caprice. She just chooses to be away when he's on the bed, using the floor and loveseat, alternately, as her bed. Last night, then, I was surprised when she jumped up after the lights were out and made herself comfortable lying next to Michael.
Caprice will pop up on the bed sometimes in the morning, after she and Canon have been for a quick run outside. Both pound on the bed and Caprice pushes to lie next to me while I pet them both. That was the case this morning, too.
It sounds sillly, but one of my greatest joys in life is lying in bed with two poodles!
