As a long time dog owner who trains and hunts and works with them, I can confirm that there are some dumb dogs. They get taught to be good or bad, but dumb sometimes comes along for the ride.

    I am a disabled Vet. because of my disabilities, I need to be in a hospital bed, with the head and knees elevated. I have a Jack Russell Terrier and if I am laying down, even just to read for a while, he HAS to be on the bed with me. trying to make him get down is almost punishment level for him. he also wants to have at least some part of himself touching me at all times when laying down. he mostly curls up either at chest level, or between my knees with his head on my leg. he really does prefer to burrow under the covers, rather than being outside of them. I find his presence very relaxing. when I have to go down to the VA hospital for a few days ( 4-5 times a year) I really miss his presence there with me. it is lucky for both of us that he is a very small dog, as hospital beds are a bit longer than a twin, but also a bit narrower. the two of us pretty much fill the available space.

    • @horsepower711
      @horsepower711 Місяць тому

      Definitely! We've had Doxies since 1970, and for a few years we even bred them and we've always had at least one "snuggle bug" sharing their bed with us until we would lose one and would go through the "I'm never going to get another dog it's just too hard to get over when you lose one" period. Our last little guy our sweet little Beau, was definitely a daddy's boy we got him when I was going through several surgeries that would leave me confined to the bed and he was always right there with me. When he got sick with pancreatitis and it became clear he wasn't going to pull through I tried everything I could to make sure he was comfortable and his last evening he was laying at the foot of the bed and stood up and fell down on his side and just turned and looked at me with those big brown eyes and I told my wife "he's not going to make it through the night". I knew he was trying to come up and lay beside me under the blankets, we found his favorite fuzzy blanket and got him good and comfy laying beside me in my arms and at around 11p.m. he took his last little breath and crossed over the Rainbow Bridge peacefully. For almost a full year I was going through a really hard time and got very little sleep so we started looking for a new little guy. Sadly we were ripped off by several scam artists who took our money and would find something new each time we contacted them that they wanted money for and the middle of April of '23 we traveled three hours to pick him up and when we contacted them on that Saturday morning she wanted another $310 for a final vet visit and checkup. I told her give me the vet's address and we'll just drop by and pay him in person and pick the little guy up there. She came up with several different reasons for that not going to be possible and then said that the vet wanted us to buy an air conditioned carrier with a filter to take him back home and this was an extra $200 and she wanted everything paid with PayPal family and friends that if a deal goes bad for some reason you're just out your money as PayPal won't guarantee one of those sales. At this point I told her it was just getting ridiculous and we were going to pull the plug on the sale and just take the loss of what money we had already paid her for the dog. It funny because the people I used to work for and had been friends with since High School got in touch with me and said she had found a family with a miniature Dachshund that was ready to go to a furever home and after getting the address and phone number it was a different name but the same address and phone number for the same lady (and I use that term in a very reluctant way) so we decided we were just going to call it a two day vacation and go home on Sunday. Before leaving the area on Sunday a different friend got in touch with us and said she had a ten month old Silver Dapple Doxie male that she had bought to breed her female that was almost a year old but she also had a couple of big male dogs and all of the boys were extremely possessive over the little female and all she was asking was to be able to borrow him when her female came in heat and didn't want any money or anything else because we had already been through so much with the people who were just in it for the cash. That's how we got our little Silver Dapple Miniature Doxie male and we changed his name to "Gizmo" because of his patches and the fact he's definitely a little Gremlin and could tear up a steel toy in a cotton bed in the center of a sandbox, but that isn't anything new to us as all of our Doxies have all been like four legged wrecking balls. He's laying right beside me and between Linda and I. That's his usual spot since he thinks he has to take care of both of us since Linda has had to have a quadruple bypass open heart surgery and the 11th of December had a stroke and spent eight days in the Hospital ICU in a drug induced coma before she woke up and has had some short term memory problems and like me isn't real stable on her feet but she's still the best one to take Giz' out to explore and meet new friends.

Last time, she awoke me there was 12 cows bashing through the scrub. Though when you look at our history we have slept with dogs for millenniums, ever since dogs have become human companions. I love having my dog with me and she knows her place is down by my side usually near my belly or around my kidneys.

    My daughter is a cancer survivor. She got her service dog when she was a year into treatment. Aside from sleeping with her, we also let her run around in the yard and play the dirt, both were things unheard-of by most leukemia families. 2 years post treatment our HemOnc commented she would love to see a study done on immunocomprimised kids and owning dogs/good old outdoor dirt Vs. kids kept "in a bubble" our daughter was one of the helthiest they had treated and the kids that tolerated treatment best and were sick the least had cats or dogs.
