Bels settled so well in her cage in the kitchen and loves it in her little 'house' but as its getting colder (and we are a sucker for her cute face) we decided to move her cage upstairs into our bedroom last night  she was an absolute darling and snuggled down happily with not a peep all night, but i was lying there thinking awww well shes soooo good i guess she could just come on the bed She does love her own little space and at 5 months is still very borderline if we let her out all night that she wont spend the night chewing our furniture/toes/ duvet etccc Shall i be strong and keep that cage door shut for a while longer she is so good i dont want undo any of the good work (and peacefull nights) |

If she is happy in her crate, and it sounds as if she is, then I would leave her there. If you think she might be cold then perhaps you could get her a fleece or jumper to wear at night. Although, that said, all three of mine seem to be sleeping on my bed at the moment! |

In the wild dogs all sleep together to keep warm, that's my excuse for letting two of mine sleep on the bed - one on my chest and one on my feet (Poppy refuses to come upstairs). You could live to regret it though - last night Nelly stuck her little pointy nose down the back of my T shirt - had to push her away after a bit - she sounded like a heavy breather!

Believe me, if she's happy in her crate leave her there! Here speaks the voice of experience who has made a rod for her own back, actually usually its a cold back with no duvet because some hairy monster seems to have nicked it.

I NEARLY gave in last night she was looking so cute and was staring at me, so i let her out for 10 mins, she ran riot and then went and got straight back in her cage, so i err shut her back in again |
